Python Software Engineer

IMC uses a wide variety of technologies. Python is widely used across our tech stack, notably to make it more accessible to our traders, researchers and analysts. As a Python Software Engineer at IMC Amsterdam, you will take part in the development of high-performance trading systems, analytical tools, signals generation, backtesting frameworks, trade management UIs or regulatory surveillance & risk monitoring. Therefore your role will involve collaborating directly and closely with the business and other tech teams, from initially gathering requirements to short iteration cycles to refine the implementation, to integrate user feedback, to voice and implement your improvements and ideas.

All the software you’ll be building is for internal use only, there are no external clients/users and therefore no non-sense requests: the users of your work sit a few meters from you and you have control over the whole development cycle. Curiosity and interest into the trading and financial markets is a key success factor in this role, as you will be working directly on the business logic, in an environment where understanding the business context is primordial.
