I'm considering a "performance optimization" role with my skill-set (networking, C, assembly etc). and I understand this is usually seen as a lowest role in a trading environment.
How easy it is to move from this kind of a role to actual trading in C++ / python / kdb+. This assuming that I develop the skills necessary. Are prop firms usually more open to such moves ?
Or would you suggest to do my current job, then develop C++/python skills and then try my luck in
a trading firm ?
