Thanks for your question! Our interview process varies by role, but generally includes a take-home coding test, one or two technical phone screens, and an onsite with 3–5 rounds. For algo developer roles, you can expect math-heavy topics like statistics and probability in addition to C++ or Python programming. Python and C++ Software Engineer interviews do not assess quantitative skills. Those roles focus more on topics like programming, debugging, and systems knowledge.
Beyond technical skills, we’re looking for strong problem-solving, communication, and a collaborative mindset. If you'd like to dig more into our software engineering interview process, we published a blog a few years ago focused on campus interviewing, but they're similar processes: https://www.hudsonrivertrading.com/hrtbeat/interview-at-hrt/
Design Engineer here, curious if HRT has design roles open. Noticed that Two Sigma and Jane Street are expanding their teams, is HRT working on the same?
