We strive to be the most innovative firm in the industry today, tomorrow, and long into the future while upholding ethical excellence. We believe that CTC makes a positive impact on the markets, the lives of our employees, and all the communities to which we belong. Started in 1995 by a team of forward-thinking Traders, we are proud to call ourselves an industry leader that keeps making markets and each other better.

As a Java Developer you will have an opportunity to work closely with traders, quants and talented technologists to deliver value at the very heart of our ecosystem. You will work on systems that are critical to the success of CTC. Collaboration, flexibility and attention to detail will be the key attributes vital to your success!

What You’ll Do

  • Partner with other technology teams to use existing services and solutions in support of your business partners.
  • Stay up-to-date on product features, technology, and computing trends.
  • Collaborate with traders, quants and technologists to drive requirements
  • Architect high-performance full-stack solutions to tackle business problems
  • Participate and share your expertise during design and code reviews
  • Partner with our Platform team to ensure that the software delivered is high quality and easy run in a production environment

What We’re Looking For

  • 2 + years of professional Java programming experience
  • Experience with multi-threaded programming and distributed application architecture
  • Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to work in a team environment
  • Ability to create pragmatic solutions balancing tactical and strategic needs
  • Ability to quickly triage issues and see through to the solution
  • Experience in the financial industry is a plus

Most teams at CTC, with the exception of Trading, follow a hybrid workplace model, subject to change based on business need.

Our Benefits 

We strongly believe in the well-being of our employees and their families so we offer outstanding benefits to support you both professionally and personally. These benefits include generous medical coverage, paid parental leave, free breakfast and lunch (plus healthy snacks, of course), wellness reimbursement, quarterly recharge days, and a variety of other benefits focused on providing the best employee experience.
