Job Overview

FIS is seeking a C++ Developer with Linux and STL for its Market Data team in Pune, India. This full-time opportunity is intended for candidates with 1 to 3 years of hands-on C++ development experience on Linux. The role involves building and maintaining high-performance applications that process live market data from global exchanges.

The Market Data team develops systems that collect, standardize and distribute real-time exchange information. These services support trading systems and users who depend on accurate and reliable market data. In this position, you will contribute to software that handles exchange feeds, quotes, trades, order book depth and status updates.

About the Role

As a C++ Developer in the Market Data area, you will work on performance-sensitive applications and services running on Linux. You will help develop real-time data handlers and improve the efficiency, reliability and accuracy of the systems that process information from financial exchanges.

The role involves working with product, testing and support teams. You will contribute across the software lifecycle, from design and development to testing, deployment, monitoring and production support. You will also take part in code reviews, refactoring and efforts to reduce technical debt.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop and maintain high-performance market data applications using modern C++ on Linux.
• Build and enhance real-time handlers for exchange quotes, trade information, order book depth and exchange status updates.
• Improve application performance, including execution speed, data flow, memory utilization, data accuracy and system stability.
• Test, deploy and monitor applications, and provide support for issues that arise during operation.
• Contribute throughout the development lifecycle, from initial design through implementation and ongoing support.
• Review source code and work with team members to improve code quality.
• Participate in refactoring, automation and technical debt reduction activities.
• Collaborate with product, testing and support teams to deliver stable and accurate market data software.
• Investigate and resolve complex issues affecting live applications.

Required Technical Skills

• C++ development: Between 1 and 3 years of practical C++ development experience, particularly in a Linux environment.
• Modern C++: Strong knowledge of C++11, C++14 or C++17, along with object-oriented design principles.
• Standard Template Library (STL): Good understanding of STL as part of C++ application development.
• Linux: Experience with Linux system programming and development in a Linux environment.
• Multithreading: Understanding of multithreaded application development, synchronization and inter-process communication.
• High-performance systems: Experience developing low-latency or performance-oriented applications and understanding the requirements of real-time processing.
• Network communication: Knowledge of TCP, UDP and multicast communication.
• Development practices: Experience resolving complex live issues and working with build tools, version control and automated delivery practices.

Preferred Skills

• Exposure to market data systems and financial exchange feeds.
• Understanding of order books, trade processing and binary financial protocols.
• Experience using performance-tuning tools and latency-profiling techniques.
• Familiarity with FIX or other binary market data feeds.
• Knowledge of Python or shell scripting.
• Understanding of failover patterns and highly available systems.

These capabilities are preferred qualifications. The core requirements remain C++ development on Linux, modern C++, STL, multithreading, networking fundamentals and experience with high-performance systems.

Market Data and Trading Domain

The Market Data team works with information received from global exchanges and makes that information available in a standardized form to trading systems and other users. Data may include quotes, executed trades, order book depth and exchange status updates. These types of information need to be processed with speed and accuracy so that downstream systems can use reliable market information.

In this role, you will help build and maintain the applications responsible for handling these real-time data flows. Knowledge of exchange feeds, order books, trade processing and financial protocols can help you understand the domain-specific challenges involved in this work.

Experience Requirements

Applicants should have 1 to 3 years of hands-on C++ development experience on Linux. The job description specifically calls for practical knowledge of modern C++, STL, Linux system programming, multithreading, synchronization and inter-process communication.
