FPGA ENGINEER – ULTRA-LOW LATENCY SYSTEMS

Location: London (Hybrid: 4 days onsite)

Sector: Quant Trading / High-Performance Computing

Quant Capital is partnering with a global trading firm building a greenfield FPGA team focused on low-latency, high-throughput hardware systems. This small, senior group will deliver high-speed compute infrastructure integrated directly into trading, research, and networking pipelines.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Designing and implementing latency-optimised FPGA systems in Verilog/SystemVerilog
  • Developing high-speed modules (PCIe, Ethernet, DDR/QDR) with deep pipelining
  • Using simulation and formal tools (Verilator, Cocotb, etc.) for validation
  • Working across teams (ASIC, software, infra) to co-design tightly coupled platforms
  • Contributing to tooling, flow, and potentially DSL extensions

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong RTL skills with experience building complex, optimised designs
  • Programming skills, C, C++ or similar
  • Solid grasp of timing closure, datapath design, and hardware-level performance tuning
  • Familiar with toolchains (Vivado, Quartus) and debugging workflows
  • Comfortable working close to hardware and owning the full development cycle
  • Interest in improving hardware workflows or applying high-level techniques

Bonus

  • Background in trading systems, signal processing, or networking
  • Experience with formal verification and/or hardware DSLs
  • Knowledge of FPGA-based networking acceleration

Why Join?

  • Build from scratch with a team driving real strategy and architectural decisions
  • Work across the full lifecycle, from concept to deployment
  • Deep technical ownership, minimal overhead, and real impact
  • Collaborate with top engineers in a no-bureaucracy culture

All enquiries handled in strict confidence. Your profile will only be shared with your permission.
