At HRT, we program computers to intelligently trade on the stock market. We make the world’s markets more financially efficient using smart algorithms. To get the job done, we hire some of the smartest engineers in the world to develop our massive distributed research platform. A critical component of this research platform is a new and exciting data visualization platform.
Algo Web Engineers are programmers that are embedded in HRT’s trading team and work hand-in-hand with Algo Strategy Developers (AD) to develop the data visualization platform used for many types of quantitative analysis. This platform is capable of consuming extremely large data sets in near real time and providing many different types of customizable visualizations.
Our environment is particularly well suited to driven, self-motivated programmers. For one, the company’s Partners are all programmers. Team Leads spend a majority of their time doing technical work. Algo teams run on a very bottom-up approach that encourages everyone on the teams to come up with ideas and dictate the direction of each team together. Finally, there is very little emphasis placed on project management process (almost no meetings and no project managers) and there is a lot of emphasis placed on engineering process such as automated testing, design/code reviews, and technical training.
Our data visualization platform is built using React/Redux and Typescript with a python-based backend. While hands-on experience with these specific technologies is highly desirable, we care more about your practical experience writing single page applications, technical fundamentals (algorithms/data structures), and passion for data visualization.
