Wed like the kind of person who:
- Can deduce the rules of a card game by watching a few hands
- Has used a hex editor or debugger to hack computer games
- Can look at code, figure out how it works, and how to make it better
- Enjoys a fast-paced environment where problems need to be solved quickly
- Can describe their software designs at a high level (the abstract interface), low level (step-by-step algorithm), or anywhere in between
- Has brilliant analytical and problem solving skills
- Has the ability to work creatively and independently on long-term technical problems
- Has strong familiarity with the c++ programming language
AT HRT we pride ourselves on having created a work environment that blends the laid back feeling of a dot-com, the imagination of a startup, the excitement of a trading floor and the intellectual stimulation of a think tank.

- 100% medical and dental coverage
- Catered breakfast and lunch, every day
- Frequent social outings, trips and company activities
