Technical Lead Trading Platform

Що робити

Own the target architecture of the Trading Platform direction: Market Data, OMS/EMS, WPF trading terminal and news streaming — within the company-wide architectural principles, including design reviews, the ADR register and final say on architectural decisions local to the direction.
Lead the two ongoing full re-architecture programmes of Market Data and OMS/EMS, including migration staging, dual-run and reconciliation strategy, transition criteria, rollback planning and delivery without interruption of the trading session.
Lead and develop four Engineering Leads, including one-on-ones, goal setting, performance management, development plans, calibration of their teams’ performance reviews, compensation proposals, hiring and separation.
Own delivery predictability across four teams, including planning, capacity management, delivery and quality metrics, and regular reporting to the Head of Engineering.
Own the engineering bar of the direction, including coding standards, code review practices, definition of done, and technical debt management across the teams.

Production experience with low-latency, high-throughput systems — market data and/or order routing and execution — at a scale comparable to billions of messages per trading session and thousands of messages per second.
Deep distributed systems expertise: consistency trade-offs, fault tolerance and failover, backpressure, state replication and recovery, determinism and replay, latency tail diagnostics.
Proven experience leading a large migration or re-write of a system in production without business interruption, including dual-run, reconciliation and rollback strategies.
C++ and/or C# at a level sufficient to read code, run design reviews and argue technical decisions on the merits with senior engineers. Writing production code is not part of the role.
At least 2 years of managing managers — one or more team leads with their own teams as direct reports. Managing a single team of engineers does not meet this requirement.
