Front Office C++ Quant Developer – Associate

  • London
  • £56,000 - £84,000 per year

An excellent opportunity for an ambitious C++ Quant Developer with 2-3 years’ experience to join a growing Front Office Quant team and contribute to a major analytics and technology transformation programme. If you’re looking to build your career in front-office quantitative technology, combining hands-on development with valuable exposure to trading and financial markets then get in touch today.

You’ll be involved in developing and modernising quant libraries, bringing together previously fragmented pricing systems, data structures and analytics across multiple FICC asset classes.

  • Approximately 2–3 years’ relevant software or quantitative development experience.
  • Exposure to financial products, pricing models or quant analytics.
  • Good software engineering fundamentals, including data structures, algorithms, testing and debugging.
  • Python or Java experience would be advantageous.
  • A genuine interest in financial markets and front-office technology.

Why consider this opportunity?

  • Work across multiple FICC asset classes and quant disciplines.
  • Gain direct exposure to front-office traders and trading environments.
  • Contribute to a significant programme modernising and unifying quant analytics and pricing infrastructure.
  • Work on high-impact development projects with real front-office visibility.
  • Develop your technical skills and broaden your understanding of financial markets.
