About the role
Build and operate low-latency trading services, including order routing across centralized, decentralized, and OTC venues, real-time execution and liquidity aggregation, position management, and pre-trade risk checks. Develop exchange-level market data ingestion and reliable venue connectivity, with careful attention to correctness, retries, timeouts, and client capital. Candidates should have production-level experience with Go or Rust and have shipped trading systems where execution reliability and real-time performance directly affect revenue. Experience with distributed systems, event streams, high-throughput databases, Kubernetes, Docker, and AWS is expected; exchange connectivity, FIX, market microstructure, MEV, and matching-engine or HFT infrastructure experience are advantageous.
