Job description

Trexquant is a growing systematic fund at the forefront of quantitative finance, with a team of world-class researchers and engineers. As we continue to expand our trading operations, we are investing heavily in building the next generation of our quantitative research & trading platform.

We are seeking an Early Career Software Engineer with strong programming skills to join our engineering team. In this role, you will work closely with experienced engineers and quantitative researchers to develop the infrastructure that powers systematic trading, including data pipelines, back testing tools, and execution systems. You will have the opportunity to contribute to greenfield development projects, where you’ll help build new systems from the ground up, driving innovation and scalability in our technology stack.

Responsibilities

  • Full lifecycle development of low-latency, high-throughput research and trading systems using C++, C, Java, or Rust
  • Build and optimize data processing pipelines to ensure reliable access to large, high-quality datasets.
  • Assist in developing tools for back testing, model training, and strategy evaluation.
  • Collaborate with researchers and traders to deliver technical solutions that improve research productivity and trading performance.
  • Participate in code reviews, testing, and documentation to maintain high-quality standards.
  • Stay abreast of emerging technologies, tools, and best practices, bringing innovative ideas to continuously improve our systems.

Requirements

  • BS/MS degree in Computer Science, or a related STEM field
  • Strong knowledge of data structures, algorithms, and object-oriented programming.
  • Proficiency in one or more programming languages: C++, C, Python, Java, or Rust.
  • Familiarity with Linux environments
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to learn quickly in a collaborative team setting.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary plus bonus based on individual and company performance.
  • Collaborative, casual, and friendly work environment.
  • PPO health, dental, and vision insurance premiums fully covered for you and your dependents.
  • Pre-tax commuter benefits.
  • Weekly company meals.

Applications are open for both Stamford and New York City offices, the latter with a planned opening in October 2026.

The base salary range is $130,000 - $175,000 depending on the candidate’s educational and professional background. Base salary is one component of Trexquant’s total compensation, which may also include a discretionary, performance-based bonus. This position is classified as overtime-exempt.

Trexquant is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
