Quant Trading Developer (DEX/CEX)
What You'll Be Doing
Lead efforts to reduce latency, jitter and bottlenecks across the full tick-to-trade path — including node sync, market data, networking, and order signing/submission — without sacrificing stability
Build and trade automated Hyperliquid strategies such as arbitrage, liquidations and funding capture, using firm capital and owning the resulting P&L
Manage live risk in real time, including positions, leverage, margin and funding, staying within set risk limits
Build and operate self-hosted Hyperliquid (or other DEX) nodes and execution infrastructure, ensuring stability and high availability
Develop on-chain execution code, including market-data handlers, internal order books, and order routing for Hyperliquid and other on-chain venues
Build monitoring and control systems to track latency (order round-trip time, market-data delay, fill quality), along with kill switches and position limits
Requirements
Requirements - Latency: Proven, measurable latency reduction in production while keeping live systems stable. Hands-on with latency profiling, network tuning, CPU pinning and async event loops. - Trading track record: 3+ years of live quant or systematic prop trading with direct P&L responsibility, running perpetual futures strategies and managing leverage and funding in real time. - On-chain node experience: Has built and run a Hyperliquid or other DEX node, and can explain its architecture, bottlenecks and latency trade-offs in depth. - On-chain coding: Strong with RPC, WebSocket feeds, transaction signing and smart contracts. Python required; Rust, C++ or Go a strong plus. - Deep understanding of perpetuals, funding, leverage, liquidations and on-chain order books. - Solid grasp of exchange microstructure (order types, order-book events, rate limits). - Bachelor’s or above in Computer Science, Engineering, Finance, Mathematics or a related quantitative field. Strongly preferred - Trading across DEX and CEX venues, including cross-venue arbitrage. - Low-latency or HFT background (e.g. lock-free structures, ring buffers).
