## Description

Vola Dynamics is the world's most sophisticated software and research company for advanced options analytics. Our volatility fitter and ultra-fast option pricers are the market standard, powering decisions at the world’s leading hedge funds, proprietary trading firms, market makers, and global banks.

We're seeking a data-oriented Software Engineer to play a pivotal role in developing our next-generation streaming data infrastructure from the ground up. This is a rare chance to design and build a modern trading analytics platform from scratch—one that will power cutting-edge applications built on Vola's advanced options analytics library.

We’re a small, tight-knit, highly technical team that values intellectual rigor, collaboration, and doing good work. You’ll take on broad responsibilities and contribute to work with real-world impact from day one. We help each other build, share ideas openly, and work together to get things done.

We're a hybrid team, in the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

What You'll Do

 - Design high-performance APIs: Design and implement robust, scalable, real-time and historical user-facing data APIs in C++, Python, and Rust.

 - Build powerful internal tools: Build powerful internal tools (GUIs, TUIs, etc.) for real-time command & control and meta-analytics that accelerate research and streamline the path from research to production.

 - Develop and maintain production data systems: Develop scalable systems to ingest, transform, and analyze real-time and historical options market data and deploy these on our distributed computing infrastructure.
