- Design and build latency‑sensitive Rust services handling high‑frequency data and decisioning.
- Implement robust, testable financial logic with strict correctness guarantees.
- Build and maintain streaming pipelines (real‑time inputs, event processing, and feedback loops).
- Optimize performance across CPU, memory, and network with profiling and benchmarking.
- Collaborate on API design, data models, and system architecture.
A university degree in a relevant field of study (e.g. computer science, engineering, sciences,...) or a comparable qualification.
- Extensive experience in our tech stack:
Rust, Docker, AWS, Terraform - Strong Rust proficiency (ownership, lifetimes, concurrency, async, error handling).
- Excellent systems thinking: latency, throughput, back pressure, and failure modes.
- Experience building high‑performance services in production.
- Experience with low‑latency systems.
- Strong analytical thinking, both in the technical and in the product domain.
- Excellent communication skills that are clear, concise, and targeted towards your audience - engineering, product, or other stakeholders.
- A passion for well architected, testable and documented code.
- Experience using coding agents (e.g., Codex or similar AI-assisted development tools) is a plus.
- Experience with domain-driven design and distributed architectures and/or microservices is a plus.
