Application, Data Engineering and Analytics, Infrastructure & Cloud

7 January 2026

Central

Our client is a premier global quantitative and systematic investment manager that treats technology as its primary competitive advantage. They implement a scientific, data-driven approach to investing across all liquid asset classes. With a collaborative culture of innovation, they are currently expanding their high-performance data engineering team in Hong Kong.

 

The Role

We are looking for a Quantitative Software Engineer to own the lifecycle of market data infrastructure. You will be a key bridge between raw exchange feeds and the firm’s elite Quantitative Researchers. This is not a "maintenance" role; you will be architecting the next generation of cloud-native data solutions that handle massive volumes of Level 3 (Tick-by-Tick) data.

 

Your Impact

  • Architecting Pipelines: Build and enhance key data solutions using Python and cloud SDKs in an AWS environment.

  • Mastering L3 Data: Design systems to handle "Order-by-Order" market data, ensuring nanosecond accuracy and absolute data completeness.

  • Quantitative Collaboration: Partner directly with Quants and Traders to build tailored data tools that directly impact alpha generation.

  • Infrastructure Design: Contribute to software design and implementation of highly scalable data lakes and real-time streaming services.

 

The Profile

  • Technical Stack: Highly proficient in Python. Knowledge of C++ for performance-critical components is a significant advantage.

  • Market Data Expertise: Previous experience managing Tick Data, order books, or market data feeds (Equities/Futures preferred).

  • Cloud Native: Proven experience designing and implementing tools within AWS.

  • Engineering Rigor: Comfortable with the Linux development toolchain and mature CI/CD processes.

  • Experience: While 5+ years is ideal, we are highly interested in "rising stars" with 2+ years of experience in high-frequency trading, prop shops, or data-intensive fintech environments.
