Skills: Python
A Software Developer (Market Setup) takes a trading venue from a signed agreement to the first live trade on our platform, then makes the next venue happen sooner. What You Own: one venue, stage by stage: Scoping. Read the venue's specifications; list what the platform has and what is missing; estimate the setup.Scoping. Connectivity. Design it with infra: colocation or proxy, lines, addresses, multicast groups, firewall rules, failover. Protocol adaptation. Adapt our market data and order entry connectors to the venue's binary protocol: SBE, FAST, ITCH and OUCH, Eurex ETI and EOBI, LSE native, or the custom binary protocol a venue publishes for itself; sessions, recovery, throttles, reject handling.

Measure the path with hardware timestamps against the venue's figures and the strategies' budget; tune host placement, NIC and kernel bypass settings, pinning, the connector's hot path, gateway choice; record the baseline for ops. Certification. Pass the venue's conformance tests and ours: replay, soak, order-flow scenarios, failover. Operations preparation. Write the operating instructions for the desk and ops: sessions and timings, limits, start and stop, failure modes and what to do in each, who to call at the venue. Walk the desk through the first day before it happens. Go-live. First live trade, hypercare, handover. What This Role Is Not: Not the core engine: the engine developers in the same team own it; you adapt and assemble. Not configuration: a venue needs code, in C++ and Python; an LLM writes much of it, you speci…
