Our traders work hard to provide liquidity to the market through their market-making activities and are the masters of a diverse set of commodities, interest rates, exchange-traded funds (ETF), and equity index options. From the beginning, we began iteratively investing in our proprietary technology and committing to building our systems from the ground up. Our trading models and software systems are continually re-engineered, optimized, and maintained to stay on top of the industry. This wouldn’t be possible without the dedicated efforts of our technology teams who utilize and perfect our innovative technology solutions.
High-performance proprietary development is the source of our success and competitive advantage at Belvedere, further fueling our passion for performance. We are a team driven by intellectual curiosity, seeking answers that will change not only how we trade in this technological age, but also the future landscape of the trading industry. We place a high premium on defining, developing, and deploying high performance trading software using a team-based, holistic development approach. We look for passionate team members that excel and their contribution is critical to our continued success.
As a Technical Project Manager at Belvedere Trading, you will drive key technology initiatives that support our trading, engineering, and quant teams. You’ll partner directly with software engineers, data engineers, QAs, DevOps, and key stakeholders to deliver high-impact projects across our proprietary trading platforms and data systems. This role is critical to ensuring technical deliverables meet business objectives, system reliability standards, and ongoing innovation within our firm.
What You'll Do
- Plan and coordinate delivery of complex software engineering, infrastructure, and data platform projects with structured timelines and clear deliverables.
- Facilitate regular team standups to ensure alignment, surface and resolve blockers, and maintain momentum on deliverables.
- Ensure project requirements, milestones, and success criteria are clearly defined and tracked.
- Communicate status, updates, and risks to stakeholders across engineering, product, and leadership groups.
- Support and promote best practices for code quality, peer reviews, automated testing, observability, and documentation.
- Help teams adopt, leverage, and optimize key platforms—e.g., Kubernetes, GCP, CI/CD (GitLab, GitHub, Jenkins), data platforms (BigQuery, SQL, NoSQL, Time Series), and associated monitoring/observability tools (Grafana, Splunk, Datadog, CloudWatch).
- Coordinate cross-functional initiatives, like cloud migrations, new software products, trading infrastructure improvements, or real-time data pipeline projects.
- Contribute to the upkeep of project tracking and reporting tools (Monday.com and similar), keeping metrics and updates visible for all stakeholders.
- Partner with developers, QAs, business, and quant teams to troubleshoot and resolve risks, blockers, and technical challenges.
What You'll Need
- 5+ years of technical project management experience in an engineering or technology-driven organization
- Proven ability to manage cross-functional teams working with technologies such as C++, C#, Python, Java, Kubernetes, GCP, cloud/data engineering stacks, and CI/CD platforms
- Excellent collaboration, interpersonal, and communication skills; able to work effectively with technical and non-technical team members
- Solid understanding of software development lifecycles, infrastructure, and observability/monitoring practices
- Experience facilitating standups, managing progress, and surfacing technical project risks
- Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities
- Knowledge of trading or financial systems a plus, but not required
