Engineering Incubator for Final-Year Students and Fresh Graduates
A 12-week paid engineering competition inside a live HFT environment. The best stay on full-time.
OVERVIEW
This Engineering Incubator is for final-year students and fresh graduates who want to start their career in a serious engineering environment with a high bar for performance.
Over 12 weeks, you’ll rotate across a set of carefully designed engineering projects, each focused on solving real, non-trivial problems. You’ll be expected to take ownership, move fast, and continuously level up through direct feedback from senior engineers.
This is an environment built for people who want to be pushed. The incubator doubles as a paid engineering competition where we identify exceptional early-career engineers — with top performers earning a full-time offer at the end.
WHY THIS IS DIFFERENT FROM A TYPICAL INTERNSHIP
The model is simple: we pay above market for 3 months, set a high bar, and keep the best. If you perform well, you do not just finish with experience. You finish with a path to a full-time role with even stronger compensation.
WHAT YOU WILL WORK ON
Depending on team fit and background, interns are embedded into one of our engineering teams (Tooling, Algo, OTC, or Core Systems) and contribute to carefully scoped engineering projects.
Typical responsibilities include:
- Designing and implementing high-quality internal software in a controlled environment
- Tackling clearly defined, non-trivial engineering problems end-to-end
- Prototyping and validating new technical ideas and approaches
- Studying existing systems and delivering focused, well-reasoned improvements
- Engaging in code reviews and technical discussions with experienced engineers
This is not a typical internship and not a learning-only program. You are expected to deliver working software.
RUST AND HFT WITH SYSTEMS PROBLEM
We use Rust because it is a strong fit for systems that need performance, correctness, and fast iteration at the same time. You get low-level control...
