Build the systems behind serious capital.
Stratus is a team of 15+ engineers, analysts and researchers building the software, data and research infrastructure that hedge funds and family offices run on. Small team. Production stakes. No theatre.
Work that ships, with people who ship it.
No layers between you and the work, no systems that never leave staging. Three reasons the best people stay.
A small, senior team
15+ specialists and no management layers. Decisions are made by the people who build the systems — you debate with peers who write code, not a hierarchy that reviews slides.
Real production ownership
Your code runs capital from day one. The systems you ship serve EUR 250M+ in assets and 150+ professionals — with your name on the monitoring dashboard, not buried in a backlog.
Breadth by default
From trading systems and research pipelines to the nine modules of the Stratus Suite. The surface area is wide and the problems rotate — you will not spend years on a single service.
A process that respects your time.
Four steps, run by the people you would work with. No panels of eight, no take-home that takes a week.
Intro call
Thirty minutes with an engineer, not a recruiter. What you have built, what you want to build, and whether the fit is real — in both directions.
Technical deep-dive
A focused conversation on systems you have shipped: design decisions, trade-offs, what broke and how you fixed it. No whiteboard trivia.
Working session
You work a scoped problem drawn from our real stack, with the team you would join. It shows you how we work — not how we interview.
Offer
A decision within days, not months. Clear terms, a named team and a start date — the same punctuality we promise clients.
Positions open now.
If your profile is adjacent rather than exact, apply anyway — we hire for trajectory, not checklists.
No fitting role? Write to us anyway.
The listings above are where the need is sharpest, not the boundary of who we hire. If you build serious systems — for markets, data or the people who run desks — we want to hear from you.
Do the sharpest work of your career.
Send a CV, a repository or a note on the best system you have shipped. An engineer reads every application — and answers.
