I've seen this posting many times over the last year. This role seems like it would be very desirable for a large portion of the HN crowd, so I am curious: are you having difficulty filling a single role, or are you continuously growing the team?
I applied months ago and was skeptical of their process. Their filter is a take-home test involving a code review and a simple algorithm problem. Neither is particularly hard, but I did poorly because I didn't realize they were grading it on a point-system by comparing it to an answer key. If you have a typo or do something differently than their key, you lose points. Lose a few points and you're out. Honestly, it re…
As a Quant Python Engineer in Alpha Tech at Man you will be working hand-in-hand with our Quant Researchers. Your challenges will be varied, and will involve implementing new trading strategies, building new research frameworks and quant libraries, prototyping new data feeds, development of new portfolio construction techniques or building risk analysis tools.
Our systems are almost all running on Linux and most of our code is in Python, with the full scientific stack: numpy, scipy, pandas, scikit-learn to name a few of the libraries we use extensively. We implement the systems that require the highest data throughput in Java. For storage, we rely heavily on MongoDB and Oracle.
We use Airflow for workflow management, Kafka for data pipelines, Bitbucket for source control, Jenkins for continuous integration, Grafana + Prometheus for metrics collection, ELK for log shipping and monitoring, Docker + Kubernetes for containerisation, OpenStack for our private cloud, Ansible for architecture automation, and Slack for internal communication. But our technology list is never static: we constantly evaluate new tools and libraries.
Alpha Tech has a small company, no-attitude feel. It is flat structured, open, transparent and collaborative, and you will have plenty of opportunity to grow and have enormous impact on what we do. We are actively engaged with the broader technology community.
o We host and sponsor London’s PyData and Machine Learning Meetups
o We open-source some of our technology. See https://github.com/man-group
o We regularly talk at leading industry conferences, and tweet about relevant technology and how we’re using it. See @manquanttech
Essential Skills
o A proponent of strong collaborative software engineering techniques and methods: agile development, continuous integration, code review, unit testing, refactoring and related approaches
o Expert knowledge in one or more programming languages, preferably Python
o Proficient on Linux platforms with knowledge of various scripting languages o Strong knowledge of one or more relevant database technologies e.g. Oracle, MongoDB
o Proficient with a range of open source frameworks and development tools e.g. NumPy/SciPy/Pandas, Pyramid, AngularJS, React
o Familiarity with a variety of programming styles (e.g. OO, functional) and in-depth knowledge of design patterns.

Advicerco is building an advisor-driven, automated cash flow management platform that maximizes the efficiency of every dollar that comes into its ecosystem. It manages the client’s flow of cash based on the their goals regarding cash, debt, and investment management.
We have a small tech team, including 2 full stack developers and a product lead at this point. We're looking to fill out more of the UI front end side of the equation, we'd looking for full stack team mates who lean more towards the front as well as a UI specialist.
Our tech stack: AWS, javascript/typescript, React, Postgres, DynanamoDB with a bit of cucumber and terraform for good measure.
What else do you need to know?
* Collaboration: Lots of strong opinions weakly held.
* Product Driven: We’re building a product that people will use, love and rave about.
* Test Driven: We make it bleed, and then we make it green, but we make sure it's an automated machine making it happen. QC/QA teams should be free from having to null check forms so they can do the interesting things.
