About the role
Syberry is the technology partner for a U.S.-based capital management company, and we are establishing an engineering center in Europe for them. The team is building the technology platform to run the company. This is a greenfield development project utilizing Python, Kotlin, React, and AWS as the primary tech stack.
We are seeking a Kotlin/Python Engineer to develop a toolset for portfolio managers that will enable the analysis of financial data and facilitating informed decision-making based on this analysis.
Why join us?
Learn from top Wall Street experts: you will work in one team with quants and portfolio managers who have 15+ years of experience in the field.
Greenfield development: participate in designing and building an entire tech platform for running the company from scratch. Our oldest code is just 2 years old.
Cutting-edge practices: we embrace XP principles like TDD, CI/CD, pair programming, and trunk-based development to ship value daily.
Real challenges: everything you work on gets tested by real users immediately. No boring tasks with unknown value.
Zero bureaucracy: we're a startup, so the features you produce will be available for the end-users shortly.
Small, skilled teams: we're a crew of 30 experienced engineers, working in small teams of up to 5 so don't expect communication overload.
True remote: No Return To Office. Work from wherever you want.

About you:
If your main expertise is in PYTHON:
Strong engineering experience (we mean it): we believe at least 7 years of software engineering is a good predictor
Experience working with AWS, GCP or Azure; can use key services for computation, networking, and storage
Exposure to Java/Kotlin and readiness to work with Kotlin: our system is developed using both Python and Kotlin. That's why we expect your readiness to work both with Python and Kotlin
Experience using SQL and RDBMS; know how to write requests for relational databases
