QuestionC++ Jobs in Finance/Hedge Funds etc Pin
Stone Free26-Jul-06 9:03

I have noticed that a vast majority of the jobs returned by job search engines seem to be Banking and Finance related. Whilst without any knowledge of the programming side of these types of jobs, at first glance it does not seem the kind of job I would be interested in, as I do not know what type of C++ language features usually get used in the design of such software. However this might be an ill-informed view. Can you advise me?

My current job is quite limited in the scope of what is done with C++, whilst there are classes/objects used in the applications there is not much use of inheritance. We use STL and make use of vectors,maps,sets and some associated algorithms, but not boost/loki.

Now obviously no job is always going to be using everything available, but I would like to make more use of the full power of C++.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
One last thing, I would be interested in any jobs involving C++/CLI, but it really needs a better buzzword to help in searches. Managed as in Managed C++ can appear in context unrelated to "Managed C++". CLI of course is a common TLA for Command Line Interface.

I think that the only hope for these types of jobs is to convince any company you join that has a lot of C++ code and coders who are thinking of using C# the advantages of keeping the in house knowledge and experience and staying with C++ and using C++/CLI where possible.

I will post this section again separately just in case it is easier to answer the first section without the thread drifting.
