FPGA Engineer – **Fully Remote in Europe+ 40 Days Annual Leave**


Only considering candidates with HFT (high frequency trading) experience.


A cutting-edge quantitative trading firm is seeking skilled FPGA Engineers to contribute to their ongoing market expansion projects.


About the Client


This innovative firm provides liquidity in both traditional and emerging markets, including cryptocurrency, by leveraging advanced machine learning to power their trading strategies. The company prides itself on being free of legacy constraints, building all systems from the ground up. With fewer than 200 employees, they are rapidly expanding into new markets, trading exclusively with their own capital.


About the Role


As a FPGA Engineer, you’ll play a critical role in:



  • Develop and optimise FPGA-based solutions for ultra-low-latency trading systems.

  • Integrate FPGA solutions into broader trading infrastructure in collaboration with software developers.

  • Implement hardware-accelerated solutions for protocol parsing, order entry, and market data processing.

  • Optimise timing, resource usage, and latency to achieve best-in-class performance.

  • Monitor and troubleshoot FPGA performance in a live trading environment.


Why Join Us?



  • Work in a fast-growing, results-oriented firm with minimal bureaucracy.

  • Collaborate with some of the industry’s top engineers and researchers.

  • Enjoy the flexibility of full remote work from anywhere in the world or choose to work from one of their hubs in cities like London or Dubai.


What We're Looking For



  • Proficiency in Verilog/SystemVerilog with experience in FPGA design.

  • Hands-on expertise with Xilinx Vivado, Altera Quartus, and FPGA debugging tools (ILA, SignalTap).

  • Experience in peripheral integration (10G PHY/MAC, PCIe) and custom network stack implementations (TCP/UDP).

  • Strong programming and scripting skills in C++ or Python.

  • Only considering candidates with HFT (high frequency trading) experience.

We encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet every requirement listed. If you have a strong background, proven experience, and the drive to learn, we’d love to hear from you.
