Job description

DRW is a diversified trading firm with over 3 decades of experience bringing sophisticated technology and exceptional people together to operate in markets around the world. We value autonomy and the ability to quickly pivot to capture opportunities, so we operate using our own capital and trading at our own risk.
Headquartered in Chicago with offices throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Asia, we trade a variety of asset classes including Fixed Income, ETFs, Equities, FX, Commodities and Energy across all major global markets. We have also leveraged our expertise and technology to expand into three non-traditional strategies: real estate, venture capital and cryptoassets.
We operate with respect, curiosity and open minds. The people who thrive here share our belief that it's not just what we do that matters-it's how we do it. DRW is a place of high expectations, integrity, innovation and a willingness to challenge consensus.
About the Team
The DRW C/FICCO Data Engineering team is essential to developing valuable datasets and scalable data infrastructure critical to our trading operations. We work closely with traders, researchers, and other engineering teams to ensure seamless data flow and accessibility, supporting data-driven decision-making. Our systems are designed to handle large volumes of data, maintain quality and integrity, and provide robust APIs for fast, ergonomic data retrieval.
About the Role
In this role you will:
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver data solutions that support diverse trading activities.
  • Take full ownership of data products, guiding them from initial concept through to stable production.
  • Design, build, and maintain systems for both batch processing and real-time streaming of time series datasets, ensuring high data quality and reliability.
  • Develop APIs and data access methods for fast, intuitive retrieval of historical and live data, working with both new and existing systems.
  • Provide on-call support as needed.

Qualifications:
  • A minimum of 2+ years' experience using at least one of Python, Java, and C++, and can work comfortably in multiple programming languages
  • A track record of working directly with end customers, scoping and delivering production systems in fast-moving and ambiguous environments
  • Ability to dive deep into complex problems, develop intuitive understandings, spot risks early, and minimize complexity
  • Exceptional interpersonal skills - you communicate clearly with stakeholders as well as other engineers, fostering a collaborative, supportive working environment
  • Experience in the financial markets, especially in delta one, store of value, and/or FICC options trading
  • Experience with Linux-based, concurrent, high-throughput, low-latency software systems
  • Experience with pipeline orchestration frameworks (e.g. Airflow, Dagster)
  • Experience with streaming platforms (e.g. Kafka), data lake platforms (e.g. Delta Lake, Apache Iceberg), and relational databases
  • Have a Bachelors or advanced degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Statistics, Physics, Engineering, or equivalent work experience

The annual base salary range for this position is $175,000 $225,000 depending on the candidate's experience, qualifications, and relevant skill set. The position is also eligible for an annual discretionary bonus. In addition, DRW offers a comprehensive suite of employee benefits including group medical, pharmacy, dental and vision insurance, 401k (with discretionary employer match), short and long-term disability, life and AD&D insurance, health savings accounts, and flexible spending accounts.
