ABOUT THE COMPANY:

Maven is a market-leading proprietary trading firm allocating internal capital across discretionary, systematic, and market-making strategies. Our collective expertise spans traders, engineers, and technologists, unified by an unwavering dedication to enhance our efficiency as a premier liquidity provider for globally listed derivatives. We leverage groundbreaking execution and pricing technologies to elevate and improve how financial markets operate.

ABOUT THE COMPANY:

Overview:
Where technology meets trading, the Maven FPGA team is pushing the bleeding edge of hardware and proprietary designs to maintain and gain advantage in an increasingly competitive environment. With operations in London, New York, Hong Kong and Chicago, we build technology in support of global trading operations across multiple exchanges, asset classes, and trading strategies. Our teams are small and nimble, with a firm commitment to growth, and a strategic view of investment in people, tools, and the necessary platforms to extend our leadership.

The Role:
Within our team, you will work with traders and technologists to seek and exploit opportunities to gain competitive advantage through FPGA systems. By means of reduced latencies, higher throughput, or increased robustness, you will enable the company to increase the efficiency of existing strategies and open up entirely new trading opportunities previously inaccessible.
