Tower’s high-performance infrastructure is at the heart of what we do, and our Core Engineering team is critical to the continuing success of our business. Software plays a critical role in every part of our business: we consider ourselves a technology company as much as a trading company. The Core Engineering team performs a wide variety of functions, including designing, implementing, and optimizing our trading platform; developing systems that provide easy access to market data and trading simulations; creating tools to analyze data for patterns; and providing real-time trade support and risk management.

Technologies: We use C++(11/14) to build our trading systems and much more. Automation is mostly handled through Perl and Python scripts. But that is not a strict requirement if you can churn out good documentation :)
