NK Securities Research is a leading financial firm that leverages cutting edge technology and sophisticated algorithms to trade the financial markets. Founded in 2011, we have gained invaluable experience in the field of High Frequency Trading across different asset classes. With a focus on innovation, entrepreneurship, and collaboration, we aim to foster a dynamic work environment that reflects a startup culture. Role Overview As an FPGA Developer, you will design, implement, and rigorously test RTL (Register-Transfer Level) designs to power our high-frequency trading strategies. Your contributions will play a pivotal role in reducing system latency and enhancing performance, directly impacting trading outcomes. Key Responsibilities Design and Implementation: Develop high-performance RTL designs using VHDL or Verilog for FPGA-based systems. Optimize hardware implementations for ultra-low latency and high throughput. Testing and Debugging: Perform thorough functional and timing testing of RTL designs, ensuring adherence to specifications. Debug and resolve issues using FPGA debugging tools such as SignalTap, ChipScope, or ModelSim. Collaboration and Documentation: Work closely with hardware and software teams to ensure seamless integration of FPGA solutions with the Software Trading Stack. Maintain clear and comprehensive documentation of designs, test cases, results and benchmarks Qualifications Technical Skills: RTL Development: Strong fundamentals in digital logic design, Boolean algebra, FSMs and synchronous design. Proficiency in VHDL or Verilog/SystemVerilog, with a strong focus on efficient and optimized designs. FPGA Tools: Hands-on experience with industry-standard tools such as Xilinx Vivado. Testing and Verification: Expertise in writing testbenches and conducting simulation-based verification. Familiarity with static timing analysis and achieving timing closure. Familiar with CocoTB or any similar testing setup. Debugging: Proficiency in GHDL synthesis a

Who we are Graviton Research Capital is a privately funded quantitative trading firm. We trade across a multitude of asset classes and trading venues using a diverse range of concepts, from time series analysis and stochastic models to machine learning and statistical inference. We analyse terabytes of data to identify pricing anomalies and drive innovation in financial markets. Role Overview We are looking for a Program Manager who thrives at the intersection of rigorous engineering and predictable delivery. You will not just "manage tasks" — you will orchestrate the development lifecycle for mission-critical systems. Your goal is to ensure that our elite engineering teams can focus on high-performance code while you own the execution strategy, dependency mapping, and release discipline. Key Responsibilities Lead Agile ceremonies (Sprint Planning, Stand-ups, Retrospectives) tailored for deep-tech engineering teams. Transform high-level trading requirements into granular, executable backlogs. Own capacity planning and burn-down metrics to provide high-visibility delivery timelines. Navigate the complex interplay between engineering teams (e.g., Connectivity, Core Infrastructure, Simulation) to prevent bottlenecks. Build and maintain advanced Jira dashboards, automated roadmaps, and Confluence documentation that serve as the "single source of truth" for stakeholders. Proactively identify technical debt, architectural blockers, or resource gaps that threaten release stability. Continuously refine Agile methodologies to suit low-latency, performance-sensitive development cycles (where "Definition of Done" includes rigorous performance benchmarking). Eligibility & Required Skills 5+ years of experience as a TPM, Program Manager, or Scrum Lead in a product-engineering environment (HFT, FinTech, Networking, or Kernels/Systems). A strong grasp of the software development lifecycle for high-performance systems. While you won't write code, you must understand concepts li
