Working as a quantitative trader at BHFT is incredibly fulfilling, even though it is a challenging experience. The fast-paced environment pushes you to stay sharp and think quickly, which is both exhilarating and intellectually stimulating. Here, I have the chance to work with cutting-edge technology and data, allowing me to continuously refine trading strategies for optimal performance.

The collaborative atmosphere fosters knowledge-sharing and innovation, making it a place where you’re constantly learning and evolving. For me, it is both a joy and a blessing not to be the smartest person in the room. We have a team of incredibly competent and potent professionals, so there’s always room for growth and productive collaboration.

The growth and success of the company demand that all areas of the organization work together, and the Business Development team plays an integral part daily. The ability to work internally with various departments while seeking out new opportunities and establishing key external counterparty relationships with exchanges, regulators, and prime brokers globally is the most rewarding part of the role.

We continuously strive to marry best-in-class technology with highly specialized trading strategies, and I’m proud to say I’m contributing to the growth of the company to realize its full potential.

The Trading Engineers team at BHFT is responsible for supporting trading systems, developing tools for monitoring and managing portfolios, as well as analyzing markets and data. We also handle the management of financial instruments, development of ETL processes, and business analytics. Our primary task is to ensure the stable and efficient operation of the company's trading activities.

BHFT is more than just a job for me—it's a life school. I started here five years ago as a junior operations specialist and have grown into the head of the Trading Engineers department. Over these years, I’ve tackled a wide range of exciting challenges, from various statistical models to deserializing binary data. At BHFT, there’s always work buzzing, which accelerates professional growth. However, the rapid pace of knowledge inflation means there’s little time to rest on new achievements, constantly pushing you to explore new ideas and technologies.
