Role details

Trading System Engineering Internship: Summer 2027

Overview

Susquehanna is looking for highly motivated full-time students for our 10-week trading system engineering summer internship program based at our US Headquarters. This program offers students currently enrolled at universities in Hong Kong or Singapore the opportunity to intern in the US with the intention of long-term placement in our Hong Kong office.

This is a computationally intensive role that will allow you to use your strong technical skills to solve problems at the intersection of trading, data, and technology. Throughout the summer, you will receive education about how markets work by going through a deep dive into financial markets and Susquehanna’s approach to trading. You will also work on challenging projects for our trading strategy development teams in low latency C++ trading system development. Additionally, you’ll have the opportunity to work on projects side by side with senior developers who understand the nuances of building complex trading strategies.

  • Enrolled in a bachelor’s or master’s program in computer science, computer engineering, mathematics, or a closely related STEM discipline.
  • Strong software development skills in C++, C, Rust, C#, or Java, and some Python experience.
  • Intention to graduate with a minimum of a bachelor’s degree and begin full-time employment by August 2028.
  • Exceptional logical reasoning skills.
  • Visa sponsorship is available for this position.

What’s in it for you

  • Our non-hierarchical culture allows employees of every level to thrive and make an impact. We are not your typical trading firm – the environment is casual, collaborative, and we focus on continuous development.
  • Travel and housing covered for the duration of the internship.
  • Relaxed dress code: jeans and sneakers are the norm.
  • Fully stocked kitchens for breakfast, lunch, snacks, and beverages.
  • A forty thousand square-foot state-of-the-art fitness facility with brand-new equipment, multi-purpose courts, group exercise classes, and locker room spaces.
  • Discounts for dining, entertainment, shopping, travel, and attractions.
  • Social events including a poker tournament, dinners, and sporting events in Philadelphia.
  • On-site Wellness Center and on-site services such as a mailroom, barber, dry cleaning, and car maintenance.
  • Opportunities to give back to the community through Susquehanna-sponsored events and donation drives.
