Tower Research Capital is hiring early-career software engineers in Gurugram for a Software Engineer 1 role focused on software testing and automation. (tower-research.com, naukri.com) The listing calls for 0 to 2 years of experience as a Software Development Engineer in Test, or SDET, a role that writes code to check whether other code works before it ships. Candidates need a bachelor’s degree in computer engineering, computer science, or a related field, plus Python and Linux skills; C++ is listed as preferred. (naukri.com, freshersvoice.com) The job description says the engineer would maintain test environments, automate checks with a behavior-driven development framework written in Python, and work with global teams through release cycles. Third-party postings list the pay at roughly ₹25 lakh to ₹30 lakh a year, though Tower’s own careers pages do not publish compensation. (naukri.com, corporatejoiner.in, tower-research.com) Tower is a quantitative trading firm, which means it uses computer models and high-speed infrastructure to buy and sell financial instruments. On its engineering page, the firm says its teams build in-house systems for market access, data management, compliance, risk management, and low-latency programming. (tower-research.com, tower-research.com) That makes a testing role more central than the title can suggest. Tower says engineers work on the technology stack that supports trading performance, and the SDET posting ties that work to release management, environment control, and automation in production-like systems. (tower-research.com, naukri.com) The opening is in Gurugram, one of Tower’s larger India hubs. Tower lists its Gurugram office at Two Horizon Center on Golf Course Road and also has an office in Gujarat International Finance Tec-City, or GIFT City, alongside locations in New York, London, Singapore, Amsterdam, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Dubai, Paris, Montreal, Charleston, and Chicago. (tower-research.com) The role also fits Tower’s broader hiring pitch. The company says it invests continuously in trading and engineering talent and describes its structure as flat, with engineers working closely with trading teams rather than in a separate support silo. (tower-research.com, tower-research.com) The job spread beyond Tower’s own site through graduate-hiring accounts and job boards, including a post on X that framed it as a fresher opening for recent graduates. For applicants scanning India’s off-campus market, the signal is simple: one of the better-known quant firms is hiring at the entry level in Gurugram right now. (x.com, tower-research.com)
