Trading System Engineer Intern

Overview

Susquehanna is looking for highly motivated full-time students for our 10-week trading system engineering summer internship program based at our US Headquarters. This program offers students currently enrolled at universities in Hong Kong or Singapore the opportunity to intern in the US with the intention of long-term placement in our Hong Kong office.

This is a computationally intensive role that will allow you to use your strong technical skills to solve problems at the intersection of trading, data, and technology.

Throughout the summer, you will receive education about how markets work by going through a deep dive into financial markets and Susquehanna’s approach to trading. You will also work on challenging projects for our trading strategy development teams in low latency C++ trading system development. Additionally, you’ll have the opportunity to work on projects side by side with senior developers who understand the nuances of building complex trading strategies.
