Akuna Capital is a derivative trading firm headquartered in downtown Chicago that specializes in market making and arbitrage. Akuna started with five employees in 2011 and we now have over 140. In 2014 we grew by 84%, opening our first international office in Shanghai. Our founders remain a strong part of the company and work alongside junior members, building Akuna together. We compete directly with the largest market making and arbitrage firms in the world. We develop our own software strategies, algorithms, and models. We also have floor traders so we are not entirely an electronic firm. We have no clients and trade only using the firm’s own money from its partners. We use cutting-edge technology to build our low latency platform. Unlike other firms, we do not have legacy code and are therefore able to implement new strategies to be agiler in the creation of our trading systems. Other trading firms keep their quant, development, and trading teams very separate.

We are looking for a Web Developer who has strong web and application design skills to help our existing web development team bring our applications to the next level. You will build real-time data visualization and parameter configuration tools to directly aid traders in assessing risk and strategy. At Akuna Capital, your participation means creating the tools which developers, traders and support personnel will be using every day to compete on the market.

Our web application backbends are based on Tornado, the asynchronous web framework for Python. We take full advantage of Tornado's coroutine feature to create elegant asynchronous servers that scale efficiently. We utilize websockets to create live-updating displays to ensure traders have access to the most up-to-date information as quickly as possible. We power our front-ends with React to focus our development on making the best possible representations of our data. In addition to supporting traders, we also create monitoring applications for server support and development teams to help them better understand current resource utilization and notify them when services need attention.
