Description

  • Build and maintain core backend systems for pricing, market making, order books, matching, execution, and inventory-risk controls.
  • Research, prototype, and productionize quantitative logic for pricing, order-flow signals, and risk management.
  • Develop simulation and backtesting frameworks, run parameter sweeps, and evaluate performance on historical and synthetic order flow.
  • Implement real-time delivery paths such as WebSocket fan-out and authoritative data ingestion with stale-data safety.
  • Contribute to the double-entry ledger and settlement flows that depend on it.
  • Define, monitor, and instrument key risk and performance metrics for real-time observability.
  • Write deterministic, well-tested code with strong attention to numerical precision, edge cases, and CI reliability.
  • Collaborate with engineering, product, and infrastructure teams to move work from specification to production.

Requirements

  • Strong backend engineering and computer science fundamentals, including data structures, algorithms, concurrency, and performance/latency awareness.
  • Proficiency in Python, TypeScript, or Node.js, or strong adjacent experience with the ability to become fully productive in TypeScript.
  • Solid quantitative foundation in probability, statistics, and numerical methods.
  • Experience with relational databases, especially PostgreSQL, and event-driven or streaming architectures.
  • A habit of proving correctness with tests and a fail-safe mindset when something is unverified or wrong.
  • Clear communication skills with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Experience in trading, market making, exchanges, derivatives/options pricing, or prediction markets (preferred).
  • Knowledge of market microstructure, order-book dynamics, execution, and adverse selection (preferred).
  • Experience with low-latency or real-time systems, WebSockets at scale, and event sourcing or CQRS (preferred).
  • Experience with double-entry ledgers or payments platforms, AWS EKS/RDS, Terraform, Datadog/Sentry, or simulation/backtesting work (preferred).

Benefits

  • Market-competitive compensation.
  • Fully remote work.
  • Opportunity to work with a truly global team.
  • Flexible timings and control over your work schedule.
