After earning their stripes (and money) working for some of the best-known High-frequency trading firms, they decided to spread their wings and strike out on their own. They wanted to do things differently. They wanted to do things better. To achieve that goal, they founded their own trading firm with a culture unlike anything seen in other trading firms. A culture where ideas are explored and entrepreneurship is encouraged. A place where traders and developers are compensated equally. A place where you can truly take ownership of your work.
In their office, the traders, analysts, and developers all work together side-by-side with only one goal in mind: staying ahead of the market. Of course, to do this, they rely heavily on the technology they use. There is always room for improvement, because performance is key.
