Lead the design and delivery of complex systems and multi-service projects in our trading platform.
Take system-level ownership of correctness, reliability, and operability in production.
Anticipate and mitigate architectural, operational, and product risks before they result in incidents or user impact.
Act as a technical co-lead with Product, Risk, Operations, and other stakeholders to drive clarity, alignment, and execution.
Provide high-quality code reviews that surface risks, clarify assumptions, and raise engineering standards.
Coach and mentor engineers through design discussions, feedback, and day-to-day collaboration.
Drive technical leverage by introducing abstractions, patterns, or platforms that structurally improve correctness, reliability, and long-term velocity.
Participate actively in incident response and ensure durable improvements through root-cause analysis and follow-up work.
Communicate complex technical decisions clearly and effectively to both technical and non-technical audiences.
We’re looking for engineers who consistently demonstrate strong performance across our core competencies, and who are ready to operate with broader scope and higher leverage.
In particular, you should have:
Proven ability to reason about and evolve complex, stateful systems safely.
Strong engineering judgment and a track record of making thoughtful trade-offs in ambiguous situations.
Deep ownership of production systems, including incident response and post-incident improvement.
A clear bias toward correctness, reliability, and defensive system design.
The ability to raise the quality and effectiveness of others through coaching, reviews, and example.
Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, including the ability to push back thoughtfully and align stakeholders around shared outcomes.
Clear, precise communication, especially when discussing risks, trade-offs, and complex system behavior.
Nice to Have
Deep experience with trading systems, exchanges, or other financial infrastructure.
Experience designing systems with adversarial users or strong economic incentives.
Expertise in Go (Golang), distributed systems, performance engineering, or event-driven architectures.
Prior experience driving architectural or platform-level improvements in a production environment.
You prefer focusing primarily on individually scoped tasks or features.
You are uncomfortable owning system-level outcomes or production behavior.
You avoid cross-functional responsibility or difficult alignment conversations.
You optimize for short-term delivery over long-term correctness, reliability, and maintainability.
You are not interested in mentoring, coaching, or raising the technical bar for others.
We care deeply about judgment, ownership, and impact, especially in complex and high-stakes systems.
Strong candidates for this role demonstrate not only technical depth, but the ability to make the team and the system meaningfully better over time.
