YOUR IMPACT
In SMM, we look to our Engineers to own the business, rather than support it.

We are looking for a Quantitative Engineer in Singapore, with a passion for using technology to drive commercial results, to focus on building our electronic Rates business. The team structure is designed to embrace hybrid skillsets across software development, quantitative research and trading.
