Summer Internship - Software Engineer

About TradingHub

Founded in 2010, we have grown a united vision shared between two people to a team of over 140 across London, Toronto, New York and Hong Kong. We have achieved scale by building the best-in-class surveillance tooling, offering market-leading trade data analysis in the following areas: Market Abuse; Operational Risk; Best Execution and Anti Money Laundering. Our customers are made up of Leading investment banks, asset managers, hedge funds, commodity houses, and brokerage firms (collectively representing over 20 trillion dollars of AUM).

Though we have developed in the trade surveillance arena we have always been more than that. At heart, we are a finance-focused big data firm. Our goal is to continue creating the world’s leading financial markets analytics platform.

The Role

We are looking for Software Engineer summer interns who want to be at the forefront of an incredibly exciting industry.

Initial training will involve bringing you up to speed on our products, teaching you our internal programming language, and making sure that you have all other necessary technical expertise. However, we take a “learn by doing” approach where, as soon as possible, you will be assigned real tasks and adding value to the company.

This work would appeal to STEM degree students with a broad knowledge of computing who like to continually learn new things and do not mind dealing with rapidly changing priorities and projects. This is an opportunity to join and learn from enthusiastic – like minded engineers to work on exciting projects with a real-world impact.

There are a variety of engineering teams at TradingHub. Some provide external services to our clients, and some provide services internally to other teams. The product development team is responsible for our external facing products: MAST, TEAM, AMLA and CAAS. The Fabric team is responsible for our internal tooling. This includes our internal software language, Sozy, which uses a SQL-like syntax with C# injection. We also have teams responsible for the ingestion of Client Data, Market Data, producing risk and pricing models, our DevOps team working on improvements to the CI/CD code pipelines and some general automations around code coverage and code quality, finally a place in our infrastructure team working on API integration amongst other automation projects.
