Behind high-performing teams are strong connections. Our US teams came together in Quebec City for a weekend of skiing, tobogganing, recharging and exploring the city. It was a chance to step away from the desk, connect across offices, and strengthen the relationships that carry into how we work every day. See the highlights from the trip.

Fetching a table and subscribing to updates sounds straightforward until you need it to be correct. The snapshot misses new rows, while the stream sees them immediately, and you cannot drop or reorder either. This boundary is where most of the complexity sits. See how we use Postgres WAL and logical decoding to make this work. Read more: https://bit.ly/42oroxv

Celebrating 40 years of Optiver globally and five years in Singapore, a key FICC hub for us in the region. Singapore remains a critical centre for capital flows across APAC, bringing together participants across markets and asset classes. As a market maker, we’re proud to support liquidity and efficient price discovery across the region. We deeply value our strong, long-standing partnership with the SGX Group, contributing to resilient and reliable markets, and we were delighted to mark this milestone together.

AI is getting surprisingly good at the basics of trading. So we put it to the test. We gave leading LLMs the same exam we use with our interns, and then pushed them further with a mock assessment designed for traders six months into the job. See how AI performed against real Optiver traders: https://lnkd.in/eNd3VW7N

What does a software engineering internship look like at Optiver? Our interns work on projects that sit directly in trading workflows, from FPGA rule prioritization in Chicago to firm-wide liquidity visibility in Mumbai. They navigate real constraints like latency and data quality, and see how engineers and traders interact with these systems under live conditions. In this blog, they share what they developed and what they learned along the way. Read more: https://bit.ly/4cn3PLa

Celebrating a meaningful milestone in Hong Kong as Optiver marks 40 years. Hong Kong continues to play a central role in connecting capital across APAC. As a market maker, we’re proud to contribute to this ecosystem by supporting liquidity and price discovery across regions and asset classes. We’ve valued our long-standing partnership with Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEX), helping enable more consistent and reliable trading across the region, and were pleased to mark this occasion together.

We’re partnering with Eden Block to support companies that are building the next generation of financial market infrastructure. As AI continues to reshape industries, markets in particular are undergoing meaningful change. They’re becoming more programmable and increasingly shaped by intelligent, compute-driven systems that influence how trading, coordination and execution happen at scale. We're looking forward to supporting Eden Block's work while contributing our unique perspective on market structure, liquidity and execution.

When something feels slow, you’re probably looking in the wrong place. A UI lag is rarely just a UI issue. It’s often the result of how data is fetched, how often it’s recomputed, and how many times the same work is repeated across the system. These problems only show up under real usage, when multiple applications, data flows, and interactions all compete at once. This blog looks at how these systems behave and why debugging them usually means looking beyond the interface. Read more: https://bit.ly/48FxZXF

In fast-moving codebases, small changes can quickly throw AI coding agents off, and aligning them with what actually runs isn’t straightforward. With Driver, we introduced a compiler-driven context layer that keeps agents accurate without the manual overhead. The impact was clear: ▪️ 90% less manual context work ▪️ 5x more effective AI agents ▪️ Live in under 2 weeks We see partnerships like this as core to how we build — working closely with teams like Driver to make systems like this usable in practice.
