We are looking for exceptional students to join us for a 12-week or 24-week summer internship within our world-class technology teams.
These functions are central to our engineering efforts. As an intern you’ll work across a range of platforms that support our quantitative research. You’ll contribute to the development, enhancement and modernisation of the systems that underpin our business, gaining valuable experience with both legacy and cutting-edge technologies.
This is a hands-on engineering role where you’ll write production-level code, collaborate with experienced software engineers and contribute to high-impact projects from day one.
Key responsibilities of the role include:
Designing and delivering high-quality, maintainable code to work with large and complex datasets
Supporting and evolving production trading platforms and research tools
Partnering with quantitative researchers to understand and improve data quality and value
Developing and optimising database queries and the underlying infrastructure
Enhancing internal tools and data processing pipelines used at scale
As part of your internship, you’ll receive a structured onboarding experience and be paired with a dedicated mentor. Your mentor will be an experienced engineer who will guide your learning and development.
In addition to on-the-job training, you’ll gain access to internal technical and professional development courses, alongside opportunities to increase your financial domain knowledge.
Who are we looking for?
We’re seeking sharp, curious and pragmatic software engineers who are eager to work at the intersection of finance and technology.
You should be:
Studying towards a 2:1 or above in Computer Science or a closely related discipline
Graduating in 2027 (penultimate-year students only)
Experienced in at least one object-oriented programming language, such as C#, Java or C++
Comfortable with core computer science concepts, such as algorithms, data structures and systems architecture
Interested in how engineering supports quantitative research and trading at scale
We value people who:
Approach problems with a structured, analytical mindset and a clear sense of judgement
Are proactive in seeking improvement, whether in code, systems or ways of working
Communicate clearly and effectively across technical and non-technical teams
Thrive in a collaborative environment and are willing to share ideas, feedback and knowledge
Why should you apply?
This internship offers a unique opportunity to build software that directly supports world-leading quantitative research. You’ll be part of a high-performance engineering culture that values curiosity, rigour and practical impact.
