IT Search has partnered with a global quantitative trading organisation to hire a Python Developer for a newly established team building a next-generation research and execution platform in Dublin.
This is a hands‑on individual contributor role within a high‑impact group operating close to front‑office trading. You’ll join a small team of quantitative researchers and engineers, helping to design and build the core Python infrastructure underpinning real‑time research, strategy development, and execution systems.
This is fundamentally a Python engineering role within a quantitative trading environment. Machine learning exposure is valuable, but deep Python expertise and experience working in high‑performance, real‑time systems are the key priorities.
The Role
Design and develop robust, scalable Python systems supporting research and live trading workflows
Build and maintain high‑performance, real‑time data processing pipelines
Collaborate closely with quants to translate research models into production‑grade code
Contribute to architecture decisions and help shape engineering standards from an early stage
Implement strong testing, CI/CD, and automation practices across the platform
Support model deployment workflows and associated MLOps processes where relevant
What We’re Looking For
5+ years’ commercial Python development experience - this is the core requirement
Experience working in financial services, quantitative trading, or similar high‑performance domains
Strong background building systems in high‑traffic, low‑latency, or real‑time environments
Solid understanding of software engineering best practices, testing, and automation
Ability to work closely with quantitative and business stakeholders in a fast‑paced setting
Nice to Have
Exposure to MLOps practices and model deployment workflows
Experience working with time‑series data platforms such as kdb+
Familiarity with machine learning frameworks such as PyTorch, XGBoost, or similar
Experience with distributed systems or cloud infrastructure
Fully onsite in Dublin with a highly competitive package on offer and flexibility on salary for the right person.
