# Markets open at 9:30. Your code is already running.

We move millions of quotes a day — options, stocks, ETFs, funds — and traders act on them seconds after they land. Get one number wrong and somebody notices immediately. That constraint shapes everything we build, and it is the most interesting part of the job.

## Open Positions

### Nothing open at the moment

That is the honest answer, and it changes. We hire slowly and rarely, so by the time a role is posted it often goes to someone already on our radar. If you want to be on it, send us something you have built and tell us what you would want to work on.

### [Backend Developer, Python + Django](/careers/backend-developer-python-django/)

Build the Django services behind a market data API that processes millions of quotes every day, for a 100% remote team.

Remote

Why Market Data

## What the job is actually like

Four things we would want to know if we were on your side of this page.

Remote since the start

The team has never shared an office. We hire worldwide and pay across borders.

Small enough that you ship

No queue of approvals between your branch and the traders using it. You own what you write.

The domain is the hard part

Option symbology, corporate actions, tick sizes, Greeks. The stack is Python and Django. The difficulty is the data.

Correctness you can measure

Traders spot a bad quote in seconds. You always know whether you got it right.
