Attribution Search are working with a Global Hedge Fund in London looking to hire a Python Developer to join its Technology team.
This is an opportunity to work on the firm's core investment platform, building and enhancing the technology that supports trading, portfolio management, risk, compliance and operations.
Whilst experience with Front Arena would be advantageous, it is not a prerequisite. We're equally keen to speak with engineers who have worked on Order Management Systems (OMS), Portfolio Management Systems (PMS) or similar investment platforms within hedge funds, asset managers or investment banks.
