5 things a Senior Quant Developer
is NOT:
You get sold all kinds in IT.
Whether it's recruiters ringing you with "Hey check out this job, it's SUPER different than the last 500 you've seen".
Or "So hey we've got an idea for the next Google. Will you do some coding for us for the next year. For free. Until we get funding?"
We're here to keep it real. Here's five things a Senior Quant Developer
is not:
1. A ninja, a guru, a wizard, a rockstar or a presenter on Masterchef. You're a Senior Quant Developer. A person, that's enough.
2. A full stack developer. Building UI's. Playing around with Jscript libraries.
3. An unbelievable opportunity. The only unbelievable opportunities are, literally, unbelievable. Because they're not true.
4. Life changing. Okay, so, in the way that technically anything, like eating a biscuit, is life changing, they're life changing. But you're not going to start living like royalty or playing for the Wallabies because you took a new job.
5. A startup backed by a powerful VC pummelling squillions of dollars into a product about to replace humans with robots.
All on board? Good. Stay with me.
Time for some honesty.
Here are 5 things this Senior Quant Developer
role is:
1. $160k - 190k pkg + bonus, (dependent on your performance of course). Some ''flex'' for the right
person.
2. Working in a supportive/open
environment all of whom are experienced - oh and super competent, relaxed tech lead
;-)
3. You are happy>ok doing ''feature dev & enhancements'' with C#/SQL
legacy systems & willing to learn new tech/techniques with a long-term aim to deliver a completely encompassing system.
4. Involved in lots of integration, migration & troubleshooting for mission-critical trading, clearing & ops systems.
5. Gaining broad experience across financial instruments such as OTC products, futures, options, interest rates
etc.
Funnily enough, there's an opportunity just like that.
