Risk Strategist (C++)

In order to better equip the front office teams, and in the context of tremendous growth in our trading portfolios, we are developing a greenfield Risk & PnL engine within our CTRM (Commodity Trading & Risk Management system). We are seeking someone with strong C++ or similar e.g., C#, Java, and Python development skills.  You will join one other team member in Houston, with the rest of the team based in London.

 As a Risk Strategist you will be at the crossroads of the development of this new Risk & PnL engine, facing both business priorities and technical challenges. You will often face ambiguous problems requiring you to define not only the answer but also the question. 

This role involves regular travel to London, to ensure close collaboration with the rest of the new risk engine Dev team.
