Advanced understanding of Agile methodologies, including CI/CD, resiliency, and security.
Ability to review and debug code written by others.
Knowledge of low-level TCP/IP and network stack behavior.
Comfort working closely with infrastructure and networking teams.
Demonstrated experience leading effective use of approved AI-assisted software development tools (e.g., for coding, code review, test acceleration, troubleshooting) with the ability to set team expectations for validating AI outputs for correctness, performance, and security.
Strong understanding of responsible AI use in engineering workflows, including data sensitivity considerations, secure handling of inputs/outputs, and adherence to resiliency and security expectations; experience coaching engineers on safe, compliant adoption within delivery practices
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or related discipline.
Excellent understanding of software-hardware interaction.

Preferred Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills:

Demonstrated experience in low latency design and development using C/C++, including DMA, exchange connectivity, and pre-trade risk systems.
