The posting

Quantitative Developer

About Us

  • Spotted Owl is a trading team of about 30 people, started in 2024 and led by Douglas Schadewald and Daniel Spottiswood. We trade all asset classes globally, with a focus on options.
  • We are made up of developers, researchers, and traders, although the roles are quite fluid. Everyone on the team writes and ships code.
  • Our primary office is in New York. We also have people in Zurich, Singapore, Hong Kong, London, and Austin.

The Role

  • The Quantitative Developer role on our team has evolved substantially in light of recent AI developments.
  • Developers now focus on the larger architectural problems: the platforms and core tools that power the team's workflows, and their speed, reliability, and safety.
  • Developers also maintain our live trading systems and work with our traders throughout the trading day.

How We Work

  • Like a startup. We do not have a slow-moving ticket queue or product managers. We resolve problems quickly and aim to ship the same day.
  • AI-native. AI agents are central to how we build. The value of the developer is directing agents to work on the right tasks and holding their output to a high standard.
  • Immediate ownership. The team is lean. You will very quickly lead projects which directly impact trading.
  • In office. We work from our Hudson Yards office every day. Traders, researchers and developers all sit right next to each other.

Our Stack (any is a plus)

  • Python (Polars), Linux
  • Redis, Postgres, ClickHouse, Iceberg, Airflow
  • TypeScript / React
  • Rust, C++

Preferred Experience

  • 3+ years of experience as a software engineer
  • Experience in trading or finance
  • Very strong in Python
  • A software engineer first. This is not an options pricing or modeling role.
  • AI-first mentality

Millennium pays a total compensation package which includes a base salary, discretionary performance bonus, and a comprehensive benefits package. The estimated base salary range for this position is $100,000 to $200,000, which is specific to New York and may change in the future. When finalizing an offer, we take into consideration an individual’s experience level and the qualifications they bring to the role to formulate a competitive total compensation package.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
