What you need

  • At least Eight (8) years of experience and strong proficiency with any programming language

  • Ability to work with stakeholders to define platform requirements, design the architecture, and deliver it end-to-end
  • High degree of self-motivation and willingness to jump into unfamiliar areas to solve problems

Nice to have

  • Strong Rust experience in production (Tokio/async, service design, performance tuning)
  • Experience building platforms for AI/ML inference, tool execution, streaming, or retrieval/grounding systems
  • Experience in trading systems (order lifecycle, execution, risk checks, auditability) or other mission-critical financial infrastructure
  • Deep experience with trading across asset classes, margin types, etc.
  • Experience with Postgres performance and data modeling in high-throughput systems

What you get

  • Base Salary Range of $200,000 - $350,000

  • Gender neutral parental leave
  • Full medical, dental and vision insurance

Worth weighing

  • The role involves building a platform in a fast-paced financial environment, which may come with high pressure and expectations
