Employer job description
From Global X ETFs's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Role Summary
We are hiring a founding engineer for the firm's proprietary investment platform — in effect, the operating system for our trading and portfolio management desks. Global X operates a large and growing ETF platform across multiple markets. Our investment desk runs on proprietary technology built in-house for portfolio management, trading, and the operational workflow around them, and we are investing significantly in advancing it as the product range and the number of markets grow.
The engineering problems here are genuinely interesting ones. Real-time market data under back-pressure. Sub-second recalculation across a continuously changing book. Idempotent posting to external systems of record, where a duplicate or dropped message has direct financial consequences. Deterministic replay from an immutable event log. Multiple markets, calendars, and time zones. And a correctness standard set by a regulated business rather than by convenience.
