    We started from scratch by building a completely cloud-native clearing and custody system designed for today's complex, global market. Our platform is fully integrated with central clearing houses and exchanges to support billions in trading volume per day. We've agonized about our data model abstractions, created horizontal scalability, and crafted thoughtful APIs. All so we can provide a best-in-class experience for our clients.

    By combining highly-skilled product and engineering talent with seasoned finance professionals, we're building the essentials to compete in today's fast-paced markets.

    • You can clearly explain the nuances of system design and paradigms to engineers and stakeholders.

    • You have a strong command over design patterns, data structures, and algorithms.
    • You communicate technical ideas with ease and always look to collaborate to deliver high quality products.
    • Your experience will help you mentor team members, define our engineering standards, and drive a system design approach to building new services.
    • Preferred, but not required, experience: Golang, gRPC, PostgreSQL, Kafka, Redis, Docker, Kubernetes. Readiness to learn this stack is required.
    We offer:
    • The opportunity to join a growing team of good people, where you can make a difference.
