At Wolverine Trading, we're looking for an Entry Level C++ Software Engineer eager to launch their career in high-performance trading technology. This posting is specifically for candidates graduating in Fall/Winter 2026, with an anticipated start date in early 2027. This role is on-site in our Chicago headquarters, where close collaboration with traders and engineers is central to our culture. You'll join a team of experienced engineers, traders, and hardware specialists building cutting-edge systems that power our trading business. This is a unique opportunity to learn at the intersection of software, hardware, and financial markets, while working on applications where speed, efficiency, and reliability make all the difference. From day one, you'll benefit from direct mentorship, clear growth paths, and hands-on exposure to the trading floor, giving you the chance to see your work in action and quickly develop both technical and industry expertise. No prior finance or trading experience is required; our in-house education team and mentorship program will teach you the markets side of the business. Graduating in Spring 2027 instead?
