We are working with an extremely well-funded crypto trading firm startup, and they are looking for a strong C++ (or Rust) Software Engineer with 2-3 years of experience
Your Role:
- Bring your ambition and drive to a dynamic, fast-paced environment where your skills can make a real impact.
- Write clean, efficient, and scalable code, ensuring edge cases are handled and systems are thoroughly tested.
- Show off your critical thinking and problem-solving prowess as you tackle tough challenges and learn fast.
- Demonstrate your top-tier academic achievements or success in competitive programming (think Olympiads or global coding contests).
- Work in a high-performance, high-expectation team where excellence is the standard.
What We're Looking For:
- Strong programming skills in C++ or Rust-you're comfortable navigating complex systems and solving tough problems.
- A deep understanding of computer science principles, from OOP to algorithms and beyond.
- Solid grasp of multithreading, networking, and Linux internals-you're ready to optimize and build robust systems.
- Ideally, 1-3 years of professional experience in a programming role.
- An eagerness to start immediately and hit the ground running.
Bonus Points For:
- Experience in a fast-paced trading or quant environment (but it's not a deal-breaker if you haven't).
- Experience with low-latency, high-performance applications, especially in the microseconds-to-milliseconds range.
- Experience with Python for research and working with trading strategies in a quant dev role.
- Expertise in profiling and optimizing code with tools like perf or valgrind.
- Strong background in advanced math or statistics-think stats, probabilities, and complex algorithms.
- Knowledge of blockchain tech and DeFi, with hands-on experience in Solidity, JSON-RPC, MEV, or Solana.
- Familiarity with AWS and cloud-based infrastructure.
