Grow your C++ expertise while building systems that power real-time decision-making.

As a Software Engineer at Wolverine, you’ll contribute to the design and development of high-performance applications that support our trading strategies. You’ll work closely with experienced engineers, quantitative researchers, and traders to build reliable, scalable systems in a collaborative and fast-paced environment.

This role is ideal for someone with a solid foundation in C++ who is eager to deepen their expertise in performance-focused systems. You’ll own meaningful components, participate in technical design discussions, and continuously improve both your craft and the systems you help build. We value thoughtful engineers who ask questions, seek feedback, and are motivated to learn.

At Wolverine, engineering growth is hands-on. You’ll gain exposure to real-world performance challenges, production systems, and cross-functional collaboration while being supported by a team invested in your development.

Our flat organizational structure promotes teamwork across the Firm and offers easy access to senior staff. While we work exceptionally well as a team in the office, our bonds are further strengthened through company events, activities and giving back. Volleyball, soccer, hockey, 5K runs, picnic, parties, and trivia nights provide friendly competition and build better relationships. By getting out of our usual environment and doing out-of-the-ordinary things together, we foster creativity and broaden our imaginations to accomplish new challenges.

The base compensation range for this role is approximately $100,000-$140,000 contingent on experience. Wolverine Trading's total compensation model includes base salary and an annual discretionary bonus.
