Software Engineer – C# – Equity Derivatives and Trading
Join our Front Office technology team supporting Equity Derivatives and Trading platforms, build low-latency trading systems for automated equity derivatives market-making across Asian markets.
We are a global financial services group operating in 30 markets with 57 years of unbroken profitability. At Macquarie, you're empowered to shape a career that is fulfilling and creates value. You will bring your insights and expertise to the task at hand and feel supported as you make your own kind of impact for a better future.
What role will you play?
As a Software Engineer supporting Front Office trading, you will design, develop, and support real-time systems for our automated equity derivatives market-making platform, covering listed options and futures across Asian markets. You will work across the full trading lifecycle, including pricing, risk, market data, order management, and exchange execution, building systems that operate in a live front office trading environment.
You will contribute to two key initiatives: developing performance-critical components for a very low latency execution solution co-located at HKEx, and modernising our warrants and ETOs market-making platform from Windows/.NET Framework to containerised .NET Core services running on Linux and Kubernetes. Working within a small, senior technology team, you will collaborate on architecture, testing, and production operations, while supporting the existing legacy platform during transition.
