  • Liaise with stakeholders across the company to build the best solutions for Optiver.
  • Manage deployments to reduce risk and provide production support where required.
  • Help ensure quality is maintained throughout our systems, including via code reviews.
  • Contribute to our never-ending goal of continuous improvement, such as by providing feedback on where our systems and controls can be improved.
  • Provide advice and guidance to junior developers.

  • Competitive remuneration, including an attractive bonus structure and additional leave entitlements.
  • Training, mentorship, and personal development opportunities.
  • Gym membership plus weekly in-house chair massages.
