Python Developer - Tel Aviv, Israel
Salary: 30-45,000 shekels / month + bonus
4+ years' experience
Job description: Client This is a global, massively successful hedge fund employing thousands of people, but it operates like a start-up, with all the latest technologies and solely Greenfield projects / building from scratch - with no legacy systems.
Tel Aviv is a key area of expansion for them in 2021, and this team operates nothing like what you'd expect from a traditional financial firm. This is a fantastic opportunity for pragmatic Python engineers who thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative culture, where your hard work is well-rewarded.
Role This specific team is operating like a core team of the company: 45 members globally have built a next-generation platform using micro-services architecture in Python (3.8 with asyncio concurrency module) and C++17, and using the latest cloud and containerisation technologies (AWS / Docker / Kubernetes).
This platform is only 18 months old, so there's no legacy code involved, and nearly all of the work over the next 2-3 years (and likely beyond) is being built from scratch / completely Greenfield.
Here you'll find no 'finance culture' and very little 'red-tape'; it is a team of techies who are there to build awesome, new, vital platforms. A hedge-fund salary without the long, finance-associated hours or work.
Skills and Experience Required - Significant Python skills on Linux, ideally with some C++ experience too
- Minimum bachelor's degree in Computer Science (or related) from a top-tier university
- Strong analytical and maths skills, including algorithms and data structures
- Good knowledge and experience of distributed computing and micro-services design patterns
- Bonus points for Docker/Kubernetes or NoSQL (e.g. MongoDB) experience
Benefits & Incentives - Strong salary + bonuses + generous benefits package
- Work-from-home opportunities
- Collaborative working environment
- Unique company where you will work on engaging, greenfield projects
