  • Navigating Linux systems for troubleshooting, deployment, and optimisation

  • Working with cloud platforms like AWS to support scalable infrastructure

  • Collaborating with quant and trading teams to support real-time execution strategies

  • Contributing to infrastructure automation, ideally using tools like Terraform

What we’re looking for:

  • Strong Python scripting skills and familiarity with SQL databases

  • Working knowledge of Linux environments and AWS cloud services

  • Solid grasp of algorithms, data structures, and computer science fundamentals

  • Passion for crypto and a strong understanding of order book mechanics

  • Familiarity with trading systems and infrastructure automation tools (Terraform preferred)

This is a high-performance culture, best suited to engineers who are naturally curious, comfortable with ambiguity, and motivated by impact. If you’re ready to build at the speed of markets, we’d love to speak with you.
