About the role

  • This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working deep in distributed systems, event-driven architectures, and high-throughput APIs - and who takes ownership of reliability and performance at scale.
  • This is a hands-on role based out of our Boca Raton, FL office.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build performant, scalable REST APIs and WebSocket services
  • Develop and maintain backend microservices using Python, Node.js, Go, or C#
  • Own features end-to-end from schema design through deployment and monitoring
  • Build integrations with third-party trading platforms, market data providers, and internal tools
  • Design and optimize relational and NoSQL data models across PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, and MongoDB
  • Build and maintain event-driven pipelines and message queue systems
  • Manage caching strategies, background job processing, and async workflows
  • Implement observability - logging, metrics, alerting, and distributed tracing
  • Troubleshoot production incidents and drive root cause resolution

Requirements

  • 4+ years of backend software engineering experience
  • Experience with caching layers (Redis, Memcached) and async processing patterns
  • Familiarity with message brokers and event streaming (Kafka, RabbitMQ, NATS, or similar)
  • Experience working with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and Docker/Kubernetes
  • Ability to work independently and move quickly in a startup environment

Nice to have

  • Experience within fintech, trading, crypto, or financial systems
  • Exposure to real-time systems or market data applications (order books, tick data, trade execution)
  • Experience with high-volume or time-series data systems such as TimescaleDB or ClickHouse
  • Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, Pulumi)
  • Experience with gRPC or other binary protocols for low-latency service communication
  • Familiarity with AI-assisted development workflows and engineering automation
  • Join a rapidly scaling fintech and trading platform
  • Work on products used by a global community of traders
