GoQuant Technologies Inc
About Us
GoQuant develops solutions that makes life easier and more profitable for digital asset traders and researchers. We do so primarily by increasing transparency, boosting speed and placing decisions in the hands of users.
We currently offer two solutions: GoMarket and GoTrade. GoMarket is a subscription service that delivers low-latency, digital asset data, via WebSocket. Features include a unified querying language that allows users to easily bypass exchange-specific protocols to access data. GoTrade is trade execution platform that allows clients to trade digital assets—using multiple interfaces (Rest API, UI, WebSocket, Redis, etc.) to rapidly interact and trade with cryptocurrency exchanges.
Our applications are primarily written in CPP and Python. Core frameworks include NextJS.
This is an exciting time for the GoQuant team as we on-board clients and rapidly build out our solutions to meet their needs.

Responsibilities
Responsibilities are straight-forward, which is to drive the development of our GoTrade solution, to help those around you succeed. Developing the GoTrade solution will have our Python/Django framework at its core but will require significant coordination and work on supporting services built in other languages and cutting-edge solutions.
