Senior Quant Trading Engineer (Rust / Low Latency) A leading global crypto trading firm is expanding its core engineering and execution team. We are looking for a senior engineer with deep expertise in Rust , high-performance system design, and real-time trading infrastructure. This role sits at the intersection of quant trading, systems engineering, and cross-venue execution , contributing to strategies deployed across global centralized and decentralized markets. You will build ultra-efficient systems that support liquidity provision, market intelligence, and automated execution — all while collaborating with quants and traders to continuously enhance performance. Key Responsibilities Develop high-performance trading components that handle market data, order flow, execution logic, and risk management in real time. Build and optimize systems that operate reliably across multiple venues (CeFi & DeFi), supporting continuous 24/7 trading activity. Implement latency-sensitive algorithms, deterministic workflows, and efficient data pipelines using Rust or similar low-level languages. Participate in modelling and improving cross-venue execution behaviour, including routing, slippage reduction, and liquidity-sourcing logic. Design fault-tolerant infrastructure with automated monitoring, recovery, and self-healing mechanisms. Work with quants to integrate signals, simulations, and backtesting tools into production environments. Conduct deep performance analysis: network stack tuning, memory optimisation, CPU profiling, throughput benchmarking. Collaborate closely with research, trading, and infrastructure teams to ensure the system aligns with strategy objectives and risk constraints. What We’re Looking For 5+ years of professional experience in high-performance engineering, quantitative systems, or trading infrastructure. Strong proficiency in Rust or C++ for building latency-critical applications. Solid understanding of market microstructure , order books, venue behaviour, and execution trade-offs (advantage but not mandatory). Experience building distributed or real-time systems with strict performance SLAs. Exposure to cross-venue trading, including opportunity detection, routing logic, or liquidity optimisation. Comfortable working with networking internals: TCP/UDP, WebSocket, packet-level tuning. Hands-on experience with cloud environments and on-prem optimised deployments. Strong debugging capability using profiling tools, benchmarks, and system-level instrumentation. Enthusiasm for crypto, automated trading, and pushing technical limits. Nice to Have Background in market-making, arbitrage systems, or execution strategy engineering. Familiarity with simulation frameworks or backtesting environments. Knowledge of DeFi protocols, smart contract interactions, or blockchain data structures. Experience collaborating with quants to integrate models or signals. Why Join Build and optimise ultra-low-latency systems powering global crypto trading. High autonomy, deep technical ownership, and direct impact on PnL. Work with elite engineers and researchers in a performance-driven environment. Visa sponsorship offered for exceptional candidates. Competitive compensation and opportunities for rapid advancement. Your application will include the following questions: Which of the following statements best describes your right to work in Hong Kong? What's your expected monthly basic salary? Which of the following programming languages are you experienced in? #J-18808-Ljbffr
