We’re hiring a Senior Java Engineer — you’ll be writing production code regularly, side by side with the team.

As financial markets become increasingly interconnected, our technology enables efficient, multi-asset trading on a global scale. We serve more than 3,000 clients in more than 85 countries, including many of the world’s largest banks, asset managers, hedge funds, insurers, corporations, and wealth managers. Creative collaboration and sharp client focus have helped fuel our organic growth. We facilitated average daily trading volume (ADV) of more than $2.8 trillion over the past four fiscal quarters, topping $3.3 trillion in ADV for the first quarter of 2026. Since our IPO in 2019, Tradeweb has completed four acquisitions and doubled our revenues – and 2025 was our 26th consecutive year of record revenues.

We believe the greatest impact comes from combining technological capabilities with human expertise, judgment, and accountability **Group Details** We're hiring a Senior Java Engineer. This is a highly hands-on role where you'll be writing production code alongside the team every day. You'll spend most of your time optimizing hot paths, designing new algorithm containers, and improving end-to-end latency. You will also own the algo pipeline: how strategies move from research and calibration through certification and into production. Your work spans market-data ingest, strategy decisioning, order routing, and gateway egress — all under microsecond-to-low-millisecond budgets. Asset coverage: fixed income is our anchor today, with an active roadmap to expand the platform across additional asset classes — listed derivatives, FX, crypto, and others as the business grows. Tradeweb Technology jobs are fully remote. The Tradeweb Technology hub is in our Jersey City office which can be used for team meetings and collaboration efforts. There may be days where travel to the Jersey City office is recommended for organizational off sites. **Job Responsibilities** - **Own latency and throughput end-to-end** — from market-data ingest through strategy decisioning to gateway egress. You set the bar and the budgets, and you measure them. - **Design and implement** new algorithmic order types and synthetic multi-leg execution logic, with fixed income as the current anchor and new asset classes coming online as the roadmap expands. - **Profile and tune the JVM hot path** — GC behavior, allocation patterns, lock-free concurrency, off-heap memory, mechanical sympathy. JFR / async-profiler / flame graphs are daily tools. - **Operate the algo pipeline** — version control, certification harness, backtesting and shadow-trading frameworks, and post-trade analytics for strategy health. - **Partner with our in-house quant team** — translate their signals and research into algorithmic designs and deterministic, production-grade execution…
