About the Opportunity
We are looking for a Founding Engineer to join our core team and help shape the foundation of our technology and engineering culture. This role is perfect for someone who thrives in an early-stage startup environment, enjoys working with large-scale tick-by-tick datasets, and can build scalable architectures from scratch.
As an early hire, you’ll have the opportunity to wear multiple hats—writing code, managing the tech team, attracting top talent, and even engaging with customers. If you’re looking for a high-impact, high-autonomy role, this is the perfect fit.
Key Responsibilities
- Build and scale our core technology, working with massive datasets.
- Design and develop scalable, high-performance backend and frontend systems.
- Set the engineering culture, best practices, and coding standards.
- Lead technical decision-making, influencing architecture and system design.
- Recruit and mentor engineers as the team grows.
- Work across the stack, handling backend, frontend, DevOps, and cloud infrastructure.
- Engage with customers to understand their needs and build better solutions.
What We’re Looking For
- 3+ years of experience in software engineering, preferably in high-scale systems.
- Proficiency in backend & frontend technologies (e.g., Python, Node.js, React, etc.).
- Experience with big data, distributed systems, and cloud platforms (AWS/GCP/Azure).
- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to navigate unstructured environments.
- Passion for startups, comfortable wearing multiple hats and working in a fast-moving environment.
- Prior experience in fintech, trading platforms, or data-heavy applications is a plus.
