Capital-markets engineering
Low-latency trading infrastructure, time-series and tick-data platforms, and real-time trading risk built to a broker's exact operating model — not bent to fit a third-party product.
Specialist engineering for capital markets
A boutique engineering firm built on a small number of deeply experienced specialists in trading systems and market data — delivered at a velocity that used to require a far larger team.
Who we are
We build the low-latency trading, risk, and time-series systems that capital-markets firms depend on. Our people have spent careers inside brokerages and exchanges, building trade capture, matching, risk, and tick-data systems first-hand — so we understand the problem before a line of code is written. Every engagement is staffed by senior engineers who own the code: no bench, no hand-offs, no junior layer learning on your project.
What we do
Low-latency trading infrastructure, time-series and tick-data platforms, and real-time trading risk built to a broker's exact operating model — not bent to fit a third-party product.
An agentic software development lifecycle under senior-engineer oversight at every gate. It compresses delivery time; it never replaces engineering judgment.
Copy-trading, message-transport capture, and execution systems engineered for auditability and for absorbing extreme spikes in trading activity.
The stack
kdb+/q for tick data, C/C++ and CUDA for deterministic low-latency processing, FIX and Kafka for transport, on AWS and hybrid infrastructure — built together as one system.

Leadership pairs two complementary careers. One founder built a kdb+/q consultancy later acquired by private equity, was on the founding team of a major capital-markets software firm, and is among the foremost kdb+/q practitioners, with deep OTC trading-risk and real-time analytics experience. The other is a 23-year broker-technology leader who was CTO of a major retail broker — scaling a roughly 500-person technology organization through a five-fold revenue period, a NYSE IPO, and the move from FX-only to multi-asset CFD — and who launched a multi-asset trading platform from scratch in about 18 months at a Jefferies-owned brokerage.
Every engagement is powered by a dedicated, no-bench team of senior software engineers who live in the code alongside the founders. Read more about how we work →
