Dharuv Verma — Product Engineer
I am a quantitative developer working at Futures First, a leading proprietary trading firm and a market maker that specializes in derivatives and automated trading. I graduated from Jaypee Institute of Information Technology with a Bachelor of Technology in Electronics and Communication Engineering in June 2023, where I developed a strong foundation in mathematical and computational skills. I also have certifications in C++, C# (.Net) and Java, which demonstrate my proficiency and interest in programming. Prior to getting a full-time offer at Futures First, I worked as a quantitative developer intern for six months, where I traded US Short-Term Interest Rates (Fed-Fund rate and SOFR Futures) using low latency algorithms written in C# based on top of TT .Net SDK. Here, I gained experience in US money markets and developed a deeper understanding of how macroeconomy works. Later, I even had the opportunity to collaborate closely with a senior trader for automating his strategies using code. I even worked as a sole developer for building an application responsible for trading forward rates in Brazil (calculated based on 1-day interbank deposits futures traded on B3 exchange). Currently, I am working on developing forward rates price server for B3 exchange as a part of NextGen (Futures First own trading platform). Here, I am consuming price feed directly from Market Data API, calculating forward rate agreement prices and dispatching these prices via Lightstreamer to my client (AppServer). Apart from this, I also handle most of the automated client-side trading projects, that involves using TT's API, for the entire Gurugram Fixed Income branch. I enjoy working with problems and applying analytical and problem-solving techniques to find optimal engineering solutions. I am motivated by learning new things and challenging myself to improve my skills and knowledge. I value teamwork and collaboration, and I believe that I can bring diverse perspectives and experiences to the team.
