Job description

We are looking for a Senior Algorithm Engineer (Python) to join client project.

Our client is a fintech technology company building solutions that help global financial institutions unlock capital constraints and improve market efficiency. Their algorithms sit at the core of the product — solving complex optimisation problems that impact trillions of dollars across capital markets each year. You will join a cross‐office Algorithms team (London & New York), working on systems already in production while also contributing to new product development from the ground up.

Location: 11 West 42nd Street, 15th Floor, New York, NY 10036, USA Work mode: Hybrid — 4 days in office, 1 day remote Schedule: Monday–Friday, flexible 9‑hour day

Requirements
  • Advanced knowledge of Python (3+ years production experience) with strong Object‑Oriented Programming expertise
  • Deep understanding of algorithms and data structures; demonstrated ability to design and implement them at scale (2+ years)
  • Proven experience translating mathematical models into enterprise‑level software solutions
  • Strong experience in test‑driven development (TDD) and agile delivery environments
  • Demonstrated experience on quantitative or optimisation‑driven projects
  • Ability to work through ambiguous, incomplete problem statements and drive solutions independently
  • Strong critical thinking and scalability mindset — making systems run faster and handle larger loads
  • Experience working across AWS and Python backend stacks
  • Proficiency with AI‑assisted development tools (e.g., Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, or similar)
  • Excellent communication skills with direct experience working alongside business stakeholders
  • Advanced English (C1+)
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Operations Research, Financial Engineering, or a relevant quantitative field
SOFT SKILLS
  • Self‑driven with strong initiative — proactively raises issues and drives improvements
  • Comfortable operating under ambiguity; able to progress without 100% task clarity
  • Strong critical thinker with a passion for multi‑dimensional mathematical problem‑solving
  • Collaborative team player effective across engineering, product, and business teams
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines simultaneously
Nice to have
  • Advanced degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Operations Research, Financial Engineering, or a related quantitative discipline
  • Hands‑on experience with optimisation frameworks, especially Gurobi (highly desired); also NAG, OR‑Tools
  • Research or modelling experience in mathematical optimisation or operations research
  • Financial markets knowledge and/or experience with derivatives products, clearing, or margin calculation
  • Experience with PostgreSQL and AWS
  • Knowledge of derivatives clearing / margin calculation
Responsibilities
  • Partner with Product Owners and subject‑matter experts (SMEs) to understand business requirements and deliver precise technical solutions
  • Productionise, scale, and deploy complex financial optimisation algorithms into enterprise‑grade systems
  • Research and iterate on existing optimisation algorithms to continuously improve performance, speed, and scalability
  • Conduct design and code reviews, ensuring solutions meet engineering standards and best practices
  • Enhance CI/CD pipelines for financial algorithm development and deployment
  • Contribute to the design of the company’s core product framework — validating approaches through documented designs and prototypes
