Quant developer & trading-tech recruiters.

We recruit the quantitative developers, low-latency engineers, and researchers who build and run trading systems — passive talent, approached off-market and under NDA.

Why us

A recruiter that reads the code, not just the CV.

// substance

We qualify on the real stack

We can tell a genuine low-latency engineer from a résumé that lists the buzzwords. That filter saves your desk weeks.

// passive

The best are never looking

Top quant devs are compensated to stay. We reach them discreetly with a reason worth their attention, not a job ad.

// discreet

Your strategy stays secret

Hiring signals leak alpha. We run the search so competitors never learn what you're building or staffing.

FAQ

Questions we get asked.

Do you recruit quant developers and low-latency engineers?
Yes. Quantitative developers, low-latency and trading-systems engineers, quant researchers, and risk quants are our core market. We recruit them off-market, under NDA, for hedge funds and proprietary trading firms.
Can you find passive candidates who aren't job hunting?
That's the entire model. Elite quant and trading-tech talent is rarely on the market; we map the field and approach passive candidates directly and discreetly.
Do you understand the technical stack?
Yes — C++, kdb+/q, FPGA, kernel-bypass networking, colocation, and the research-to-production pipeline. We qualify candidates on substance so your engineers interview only serious people.
Which cities do you cover?
Nationwide, with depth in the major trading hubs including Chicago (CME/CBOE ecosystem), New York, and remote-first quant teams.
