Our Engineering teams partner with our researchers, design real-time platforms and process massive datasets at speed and scale.

We solve some of the world’s most complex financial problems; without our engineers, we couldn’t. The size and breadth of our Engineering function reflects the critical work they do.

Quantitative Engineering

Our quantitative engineers are the enablers of our success. They work side-by-side with our researchers at the bleeding-edge, with near-infinite compute power at their fingertips, to achieve our aim: predicting the future.

We have specialist teams in machine learning, data engineering and high-performance, low-latency systems.

Infrastructure Engineering

We deliver a complex infrastructure that stores and processes phenomenal amounts of data daily.

We constantly seek out ways to automate and innovate, from exploring cloud technologies and flash scalable storage to grid computing and adopting an infrastructure-as-code mindset – anything that gives us the research edge.

Our Size and Scale

We have access to around 300 Petabytes of storage. That's enough to store every piece of data you would generate over 100 lifetimes.
Kafka clusters in production handle 90 billion events and messages per day. That's almost twice as many messages as are sent on WhatsApp globally each day.
Systems we have developed are used to collect and ingest 80TB of log data per day. That's around 8 times all of the works in the Library of Congress, every day.
