I'm looking for an individual who has built a solid development career and seeking to migrate their expertise into a more consulting focused environment for an Algorithmic Trading application suite with my client. The product integrates complex distributed and real-time application engines across multiple technology environments and I need an individual capable of understanding the challenges associated with cross-technology and platform integration.

Your role will be to become the local Trading systems expert understanding key issues associated with delivering solutions for Equities, FX and related algorithmic trading environments and thus be an individual who is comfortable working with top-tier developers yet equally at home in discussing technical issues with Traders and Quantitative players in the market. C++, Java, multi-threaded application development and real-time systems development should be second nature to you but your key skill should your business acumen and ability to interact in client driven environments for project critical issues.

Typical profiles may include people who began their careers as developers, systems consultants and undergone an MBA or MSc in Finance or related subjects keen to make that transition into trading & risk related environments to leverage both your technical ability as well as business knowledge picked up from your course.
