Job Description


As a Software Engineer at Hudson River Trading (HRT), the code you write is our business. Our engineers create and maintain critical technology and infrastructure that is integral to the success of our trading. In this role, you will work closely with other engineers across the firm who design trading algorithms and monitor trading in an extremely fast-paced, real-time environment! We are looking for smart programmers who love to code, enjoy being challenged, and can thrive in an open and collaborative company culture.

Profile


  • In your spare time you: code, tinker, read, explore, break things, and have an insatiable curiosity for all things computer-related — you'll find like-minded people here

  • You are capable of working both independently, as well as part of a team and can analyze and fix problems quickly

  • You can look at code, figure out how it works, and identify how to make it better

  • You can describe software designs at a high level (the abstract interface), low level (step-by-step algorithm), and anywhere in between

  • You really like to work with people who push you to be better at what you do

Qualifications

You are a full-time undergraduate student studying computer science or a related field who is eligible for full-time roles in 2026.


  • Excellent design, debugging, and problem solving skills

  • Working experience with C/C++ or Python is required, as are good CS fundamentals 

  • Knowledge of UNIX operating systems (we use Linux), system/processor performance, and network communication

  • Interest in low-level architecture, logic design, and/or verification is a plus

Annual base salary of $300,000. Pay (base and bonus) may vary depending on job-related skills and experience. A sign-on and discretionary performance bonus will be provided as part of the total compensation package, in addition to company-paid medical and/or other benefits.
