Spectral::Cup 2026

Revision en1, by SpectralTech, 2026-04-18 19:44:11

Hi everyone!

Spectral Technologies We're Spectral::Technologies – a proprietary HFT firm building low-latency infrastructure and trading strategies for global markets.

We started Spectral in 2019 around a single idea: bring together talented engineers and mathematicians, give them challenges worth getting obsessed over, and create an environment where they can reach their full potential. That's also why we support MCCME (НМУ), HSE, ITMO, SPbSU, and ICPC – places that develop the next generation of talent, and the people who make them work.

We believe Codeforces is one of those key places. That is why we're happy to announce our very first tournament: Spectral::Cup 2026. We invite you to take part in the First Round of the Tournament — Spectral::Cup 2026 Round 1. Join us on Apr/25/2026 17:35 (Moscow time) and test your skills by solving problems!

There will be 3 rounds, and your final score will be calculated based on your best 2 results.

Prizes:

  • Top 30 in each round, with prize value growing with every round
  • Top 3 and top 15 based on the final score
  • 30 random participants among top 500 based on the final score will receive our merch boxes

Strong performers will also get priority consideration for roles on our team.

We're hiring!

Our team includes IMO, IOI, IPhO, and All-Russian Olympiad medalists, top graduates of strong technical universities, and engineers from tier-1 companies. We could say a lot about why people love working here – but our 3.5-year average tenure says it better.

Check out our Quant roles:

We're also hiring for C++, ML, and DevOps roles.
