About this role

Trading Engineer - Execution Chicago, United States We are looking for a multi-talented and passionate Trading Systems Engineer to join our execution development team. In this role, you will take ownership of systems that sit directly in the critical path of live trading, handling everything from hardware and network connectivity to application performance and exchange interactions. This is not a pure support role - and it's not purely project-based engineering either. It's intentionally both. You will split your time between: - Operational support of live trading systems , ensuring stability and rapid resolution of production issues. This portion of the role is fast-paced, highly visible and requires strong troubleshooting instincts, clear communication, and the ability to remain calm under pressure. If you enjoy solving real-time problems and seeing immediate impact from your work, this is for you. - Project-based engineering work , improving the reliability, performance, and automation of those same systems. The goal is simple: fewer incidents, faster recovery, more proactive monitoring, and stronger systems over time. We believe production ownership and engineering improvement go hand in hand - the best way to improve a system is to deeply understand how it behaves under real-world pressure. Our execution systems are fundamental to our success and require dedicated ownership to ensure continuity throughout the trading day. You will play a key role in both optimizing today's trading and building a continuously better platform for tomorrow. You'll join a team of experienced engineers committed to rigorous operational excellence and continuous improvement,
