Software Developer – Internal Compute Frameworks (C++)

Position Overview

The Internal Compute Frameworks (ICF) team is building a cloud-like abstraction layer over the firm’s global infrastructure. Our platforms reduce the complexity and friction of low-level infrastructure for investment and technology teams, spanning compute orchestration, batch scheduling, service hosting and petabyte-scale storage.

We are looking for an experienced C++ developer to design and build high-performance infrastructure, platforms and tooling. Depending on team needs and experience, the role may focus on compute, orchestration, services, storage or shared capabilities across the ICF ecosystem.

What You’ll Do

• Build and maintain scalable, production-grade C++ systems
• Develop platforms for compute, workload orchestration, service hosting and large-scale storage
• Create simple, consistent interfaces over complex global infrastructure
• Design for performance, reliability, scalability and operability
• Partner with investment and technology teams to shape and deliver solutions
• Own systems from architecture and implementation through deployment and support
• Diagnose complex software and distributed-systems issues

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field
• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience
• Strong proficiency in C++ and Linux
• Experience with microservices or asynchronous, multithreaded applications
• Strong system design, debugging and problem-solving skills
• Ability to own production systems in a fast-paced environment
• Clear communication and confidence working directly with stakeholders
• Experience building highly available distributed systems at scale

Nice to Have

• Knowledge of storage, scheduling, orchestration or service platforms
• Familiarity with database internals, indexing, SQL or data formats such as Arrow, Parquet or Protocol Buffers
• Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, Slurm or cloud platforms
