About the Role
As a Low Latency Engineer at Da Vinci, you’ll work closely with highly skilled traders, quant researchers, and C++ engineers. You
will have direct, immediate, and large-scale impact on the business, by making sure our trading algorithms and architecture are
highly competitive in a world where latency is key.
Da Vinci engineers are hired for their passion and knack for coding and solving technical challenges. They love to think outside
the box and see their code in production as little as hours after the initial idea was coined. All our software engineers take
full ownership of projects directly relevant to the core business, seeing them through from idea to implementation to optimisation
and maintenance. Combined with the fast feedback loops and multidisciplinary collaboration, this lays the groundwork for an
intellectually stimulating and exciting day-to-day life in our engineering team.
Da Vinci offers a dynamic work environment, where employees are given the freedom to come up with great ideas and the space to
push these to completion. This is a unique opportunity to be part of a successful and fast-growing company.
As a Low Latency Engineer, no two days will be the same. Your main responsibility will be bringing our latency down by an extra
micro- or nanosecond wherever possible. Here are some examples of typical tasks you may encounter in a day:

As a trading company, one of our proudest moments was going live with our very own trading system, developed from scratch by our
excellent engineers. Melzi, named after Leonardo Da Vinci’s favourite student, was designed with our very own unique needs and
priorities in mind. Since launching, our traders have been very excited to work with this custom-made and highly efficient
system. In fact, it’s so fast that the speed cannot be measured using normal processors.
