## Overview

We are seeking a highly motivated, quick-learning student developer to join our equities desk for the 2027 Summer Internship. You will gain hands-on experience developing components of our low-latency trading platform.

## Responsibilities

  
- Based on your primary language, focus on either low-latency system components (C++) or data/backtesting tooling (Python), with opportunities to learn both over time
  
- Assist in the design, development, and maintenance of low-latency trading system components using C++
  
- Build tools and scripts in Python for data analysis, backtesting, and strategy research
  
- Work alongside senior traders, quantitative researchers, and software developers to understand the full trading technology stack
  
- Optimize and refactor existing code for performance and reliability
  
- Participate in code reviews and team discussions, contributing ideas and learning industry best practices
  
- Additional responsibilities may be assigned based on individual interests and specific skills

## Requirements

  
- Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field
  
- Expected graduation date: 2027 or 2028
  
- Strong proficiency in either C++ or Python (with some exposure to the other language through coursework, personal projects, or prior internships)
  
- Solid understanding of data structures, algorithms, and object-oriented design
  
- Familiarity with Linux/Unix environments and basic networking concepts
  
- Detail-oriented with a strong work ethic and eagerness to learn quickly
  
- Genuine interest in algorithmic trading and financial technology
  
- Ability to work collaboratively in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment
