Quantitative investment manager building low-latency trading infrastructure
QRT is a quantitative asset manager operating across equities, derivatives, and alternative asset classes with offices spanning Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East. The tech stack reveals a heavy infrastructure focus: AWS compute primitives (ECS, EKS, Lambda), orchestration (Kubernetes, Terraform, CloudFormation), and a shift toward systems languages (adopting Go and Rust) alongside Python and C++. Active hiring concentrates in engineering and data roles, and project priorities—low-latency trading systems, predictive signal development, and lifecycle automations—underscore a platform-engineering organization scaling to reduce time-to-market and improve trading infrastructure reliability.
