About the Role
Be part of the team building high-throughput, low-latency financial systems where correctness, reliability, and observability are non-negotiable. You will work on core services that process time-sensitive financial data and execute critical workflows under strict performance and risk constraints.
Responsibilities
- Design and build latency-sensitive Rust services handling high-frequency data and decisioning.
- Implement robust, testable financial logic with strict correctness guarantees.
- Build and maintain streaming pipelines (real-time inputs, event processing, and feedback loops).
- Optimize performance across CPU, memory, and network with profiling and benchmarking.
- Collaborate on API design, data models, and system architecture.
Requirements
- Extensive experience in our tech stack: Rust, Docker, AWS, Terraform
- Strong Rust proficiency (ownership, lifetimes, concurrency, async, error handling).
- Excellent systems thinking: latency, throughput, backpressure, and failure modes.
- Experience building high-performance services in production.
- Experience with low-latency systems.
- Strong analytical thinking, both in the technical and in the product domain.
- Excellent communication skills that are clear, concise, and targeted towards your audience - engineering, product, or other stakeholders.
- A passion for well-architected, testable and documented code.
- Experience using coding agents (e.g., Codex or similar AI-assisted development tools) is a plus.
- Experience with domain-driven design and distributed architectures and/or microservices is a plus.
- Background in financial services and exposure to compliance or audit requirements in financial systems is a strong plus.
