    The opportunity:

    We are looking for a 2-3 month consultant to join the frontend product team for a group of financial professionals & backend developers with experience in high frequency, quantitative trading. They build trading systems to stretch between all the connected exchanges (centralized and decentralized) at Uphold, while we build the interfaces for both internal stakeholders and external users. Our team aims to build a flexible, interoperable component library to compose any variety of trading interfaces - and we're looking for detail-oriented designers & engineers to help us build this vision.

    What you'll be doing primarily

We also help the backend systems (Go, Python, SQL, Redis, +) to bridge the gap. Generally, we try to use whatever tool is best for the job without letting the stack grow too complicated.

    Requirements

    • Have at least 4-7 years of experience in frontend engineering
    • Significant professional experience in ES6/React, Redux, and CSS-in-JS
    • Experience in automated testing frameworks, continuous integration, loggers/monitoring, and test-driven development
