  • Own core components of IMC's pricing library, used across all desks, globally.
  • Write reliable, scalable, and maintainable code in C++ and Java.


Your Skills and Experience

  • At least 5 years of experience in a trading or finance environment, working on pricing models or related infrastructure.
  • Strong knowledge of options pricing theory or other derivatives modeling.
  • Background in mathematics and computer science, or related quantitative fields.
  • Proficiency in C++ and/or Java, with a focus on production-quality code and scalable performance.
  • Experience collaborating in multi-disciplinary teams, especially with quants, traders, or other highly technical colleagues.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to turn complex ideas into robust, usable systems.
  • Experience in implementing numerical algorithms for solving PDEs is strongly preferred.
  • Experience in numerical analysis (error propagation, stability analysis, etc.) is a plus.
