Team & Context
We are looking for a motivated and intellectually curious C++ Developer to join the Volatility team, who will be working at the intersection of software engineering and quantitative finance.

We Manage The Entire Volatility Processing Chain
Data storage and retrieval
Calibration and interpolation of volatility surfaces
