About

Longshot Systems Ltd builds trading infrastructure that normalizes odds data from bookmakers and exchanges across the globe, processing thousands of signals per second to identify real-time trading opportunities. Founded in 2016, the company applies techniques from high-frequency trading to sports betting, combining systems engineering with quantitative research at scale.

The platform ingests and normalizes massive volumes of odds data worldwide, feeding it through performance-critical systems built in Golang and machine-learning pipelines developed in Python using Polars, Ray, and Plotly. The operation handles thousands of signals per second with minimal latency, requiring sophisticated distributed systems and real-time data processing capabilities.

The company was built by engineers and quantitative researchers who continue to collaborate closely on infrastructure optimization and predictive model development. Longshot Systems operates from a London office in Farringdon on a hybrid working model.
