Our Alpha is Our People
Escape the average. Come work with us.
We’re adventurous and experimental, curious and collaborative. A team of original thinkers who come together to solve the markets’ most compelling challenges.
GTS gives people the freedom to tackle complex puzzles in creative ways, backed up by the industry’s best brain trust and the most advanced technology in finance.
We built the playground. Let’s see what you can do.
One Team, One Mission
From technologists to traders, sales reps to quants, we share a core purpose: to pioneer innovative trading solutions that drive fair and efficient markets. What gives us our edge is equal parts technological expertise and first-hand trading knowledge. What unites us is a constant desire to make things better for the markets, investors, and each other.
Unlike traditional trading firms, we move swiftly. When opportunities are measured in nanoseconds, our ability to work together and adapt quickly is crucial. We rely on bright, forward-thinking minds and relentless ingenuity to keep us at the forefront of the innovation curve.
Our collective vision and talents are changing the markets for the better. Every individual we hire has the potential to make us better, too.
“In an industry where the norm is to go to college, get recruited, and work for a big company, there’s another choice: come here and work at GTS. What could be more valuable to the world than creating a place where clever people with unique ideas get the support to see what they can do?”
We believe great ideas can come from anyone, at any level. That’s why we maintain a flat hierarchy and create opportunities for innovative, out-of-the-box thinkers to make a difference every day.

Relentless Innovation “A lot of our innovation comes from constantly asking how to make things faster, simpler, more resilient. It’s partly out of necessity, and partly because it’s bright people working on problems. Our natural inclination is to iterate and make something better.” Across our firm, there’s a deep desire to find the next breakthrough strategy or game-changing technology that makes the markets more efficient. Relentless innovation, continual upgrades, and constantly anticipating where the markets are going — those are the things that set us apart. |
Freedom to Experiment “Lots of firms say, ‘We embrace failure, that’s part of the process.’ But the first time someone fails, they get axed. Here, when an idea doesn’t work out, you’re not walking the plank. We’re like, ‘Let’s laugh about what a failure that was. Come back in. Try the next one’.” At GTS, we take the fear out of failure. We know some of the best opportunities come from letting clever people take a chance on groundbreaking ideas — an obscure strategy in an untapped asset class, a new application for cutting-edge tech. We give our people the space and support they need to pursue bold ideas and take smart risks. |
Own What You Build “What keeps me here, after all these years, is that any individual can help change the trajectory of our technology and our business. Even brand new hires can quickly make an impact. It’s easy to see your achievements in action and know that you were the cause.” From the junior programmer we hired straight out of college to the seasoned trader with decades on the floor, everyone at GTS has the power to drive change. That’s why our greatest success stories have come from within, from every individual who saw a problem and solved it, or had an idea and achieved it. No matter who you are, if you make something work, it’s yours. |

Our collaborative spirit extends beyond the world of work. Whether we’re kicking back at a beach party or sharing what we’ve learned, there are plenty of opportunities to make meaningful connections with colleagues.
Competitions & Games Some people like to unwind after a challenging day with…a challenging evening. After work, you’ll likely find a number of us going head-to-head in chess competitions and other games. |
