How hard is it to get an engineering job at one of those investement/trading firms like Akuna, Two Sigmas, Citadelle, Renaissance, etc ? The compensation is supposedly as good if not better than FAANGs, and the work seems more interesting. The work/life balance seems fucked but I don't have a life anyway.
I'm a EU citizen working as a data engineer with a focus on machine learning operations at a supply-chain SaaS startup I'm co-founding.
How hard is the competition for one of those developer jobs at investement firms ? Should I shoot my shot at London fintech companies first before looking at Chicago/NYC ? Or am I misguided and should I just keep building a network here and forget working in cutting-edge finance firms ?
