Job Description

DRW is a diversified trading firm with over 3 decades of experience bringing sophisticated technology and exceptional people together to operate in markets around the world. We value autonomy and the ability to quickly pivot to capture opportunities, so we operate using our own capital and trading at our own risk.

Headquartered in Chicago with offices throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Asia, we trade a variety of asset classes including Fixed Income, ETFs, Equities, FX, Commodities and Energy across all major global markets. We have also leveraged our expertise and technology to expand into three non-traditional strategies: real estate, venture capital and cryptoassets.

We operate with respect, curiosity and open minds. The people who thrive here share our belief that it’s not just what we do that matters–it's how we do it. DRW is a place of high expectations, integrity, innovation and a willingness to challenge consensus.

We are looking for an AI Full Stack Software Developer to join our AI and Multi Asset Systematic Strategies team. This team builds AI and ML-powered tools and solutions that enable teams across the firm to work more effectively. You'll build critical infrastructure and tooling that harnesses AI and machine learning to boost productivity across the firm. Location: Montréal (preferred). Open to remote for the right candidate.

Responsibilities:

  • Build internal systems that leverage AI and Machine Learning to create tooling that assists the firm.
  • Architect efficient and highly scalable RAG systems informed by cutting-edge research and state-of-the-art implementations.
  • Design and implement robust and scalable LLM evaluation frameworks to measure model quality and performance.
  • Provide technical expertise in relevant AI and ML technologies.
  • Collaborate closely with traders, researchers, and engineers to define and implement critical features.
  • Research emerging technologies and evaluate new frameworks for enhancing trading and AI systems.
  • Drive projects from conception to production, including technical planning, execution, and operational handoff.
  • Ensure system uptime and reliability through monitoring, alerting, and proactive maintenance.
  • Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code that adheres to company standards and best practices.
  • Conduct code reviews to ensure high-quality code is maintained.
  • Continuously learn and stay up-to-date with emerging technologies and best practices in AI and software development.
  • Proactively contribute ideas for new tools, process improvements, and technology adoption that move the team forward.

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or Software Engineering.
  • 4-7+ years building production software systems with demonstrated technical leadership.
  • Strong full-stack development experience with modern web frameworks and backend services.
  • Proficiency in Python (required) and experience with at least one systems language (Go, Rust, C++, or Java).
  • Deep understanding of API design, microservices architecture, and distributed systems.
  • Hands-on experience with containerization (Docker) and orchestration platforms.
  • Strong grasp of software engineering principles including design patterns, testing strategies, and code maintainability.
  • Strong experience with LLMs, RAG architectures, and Agentic AI systems.
