[美国顶尖交易公司] FPGA 工程师 –金融交易系统开发-上海
Position: FPGA Engineer
运用最前沿的 FPGA 技术进行高性能交易系统开发
Do you know that what will happen when trading meets FPGA? Could you imagine that how every tiny improvement in speed is leveraged and amplified by capital? Would you like to witness how different a world RTL with C++ can create from that by software alone?

Who we are
Akuna Capital is a derivatives trading firm headquartered in downtown Chicago that specializes in market making and arbitrage. Akuna started with five employees in 2011 and we now have over 140. In 2014 we grew by 84%, opening our first international office and our third U.S. office. The future continues to be a very exciting frontier for Akuna. Our founders remain a strong part of the company and work alongside junior members, building Akuna together. We compete directly with the largest market making and arbitrage firms in the world. We develop our own software strategies, algorithms, and models. We also have floor traders so we are not entirely an electronic firm. We have no clients and trade only using the firm ’ s own money from its partners. We use cutting-edge technology to build our low latency platform. Unlike other firms, we do not have legacy code and are therefore able to implement new strategies to be more agile in the creation of our trading systems. All of this leads to efficient design and allows our traders to be more effective. Other trading firms keep their quant, development, and trading teams very separate.

No prior financial industry experience is required.

最近要写做市商策略。不会 FPGA 。不过最近公布的的原子钟系统会让高频消失。
