I’m currently working in the core Embedded space. Parallel computing, bare metal, mutex etc. I wanted to switch to some systems role in Finance sector such as Jane street, Two Sigmas. Can anyone hook me up with a referral? Has anyone done it in the past? TC: $230k YOE: 2.5 #tech #janestreetcapital #embedded
Impossible
Why?
What embedded work do they do? They don’t use any devices. It’s all servers
You just need to embed yourself into the company.
Don’t see any reason why not. They just take leetcode guys like any other company It’s their trader interview that has the hard math puzzles
Depends. Are you someone with electrical engineering skills? Then yes, they hire FPGA devs, and that’s where you’d end up there. Are you an embedded SWE? Then also yes. Their SWE pipeline is very generalist based and you need good SWE fundamentals with strong problem solving skills.
Finally someone with some real insight. Thanks boss.
Anytime mate :)
Embedded with what ? 😜
Yeah if you can embed yourself into the culture.
I also work in mutex
you should get deembbeded first
I know we hire hardware engineers who take care of those HF gateways and stuff. You gotta know FPGA
Thanks for the insight!
Are FPGAs fast enough for production trading? Or do you need ASIC?
No
Curious why not? Most embedded are good devs.
Show me one person who made the transition
