Job Description
At Citadel, Software Engineers are responsible for building the systems that power every aspect of our investment process, from research and analysis to trading, risk management, funding and settlement.

If you're interested in financial markets and excited by the prospect of having real impact in a fast-paced environment where everyone is inspired to be their best, we're excited to meet you.
Our most successful engineers are critical thinkers who know how to dissect the problem as proficiently as they know how to build the solution. While we look for technical acumen, commercial acumen is just as important. That includes the ability to flex, change course, and iterate without always having pre-defined specs.

Through structured learning, mentorship, networking and engagement with senior leaders, high-performing engineers position themselves to embrace challenges, build impactful solutions, maximize their talents and build extraordinary careers.
YOUR OPPORTUNITY:
  • Design, develop, and deploy elegant software solutions across the firm

  • Develop under the direct sponsorship of our firm's CTO and engage with other C-level leadership

  • Solid computer science fundamentals
  • Highly proficient programing skills in at least one of the following: Java, C++, Python
  • Proven track record in software design and development
  • Excellent analysis / problem solving skills
  • Strong communication and teamwork skills
  • Ability to manage multiple tasks in a demanding and dynamic environment
  • Minimum of a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related STEM discipline

In accordance with applicable law, the base salary range for this role is $150,000 to $300,000.
In addition, the employee who fills this role will be eligible to participate in a discretionary incentive compensation program, as well as a wide array of benefit programs, such as medical and life insurance, retirement and tax-free savings plans, and access to other healthcare programs.
