Proprietary options market maker in Europe and US
All Options is a regulated market maker operating on major European options exchanges with recent expansion into US equities markets. The tech stack—Python, C++, Rust, PostgreSQL, kdb+, Redis, Kubernetes—reflects a performance-critical trading operation where real-time risk assessment, low-latency execution, and system availability are non-negotiable. Active hiring across finance, engineering, and research roles, alongside projects around performance tuning and trading system improvements, suggests the firm is scaling to support higher order volumes and stricter latency requirements as it enters new geographies.
