The key to being a developer in finance is to work in a software shop.
Working at a bank / prop firm is going to be extremely stressful. Working at the shop that all the big banks buy their trading software from is like 80-90% of the pay but none of the stress.
I love it. I get to do real, hard engineering for big pay without working on ad tech or javascript.
