Founding Engineer (Trading Infrastructure)

Location: New York, London (Office)

Compensation: Competitive

We are building the next generation of global trading infrastructure. Designed for sub-millisecond execution and institutional depth, our platform powers spot, perpetuals, and prediction markets on a unified liquidity engine. Built by a team of Wall Street veterans and crypto-native engineers, we are moving beyond the limitations of current exchanges to create a high-performance network that spans across asset classes with zero compromise.

As a Founding Engineer, you will be a core architect of our trading ecosystem. This is a high-leverage role where you will be trusted with substantial autonomy to make foundational design decisions. Working directly with the founders, you will bridge the gap between high-finance performance and decentralized innovation to deliver a best-in-class trading experience.

Key Responsibilities:

Senior Rust Engineer (Solana/DeFi)

Location: Remote (CET +/- 4 hours) Type: Full-time

Compensation: $72K - $90K

We are a stealth-stage DeFi Trading & Intelligence platform dedicated to the Solana ecosystem. We are building the critical infrastructure required for sophisticated on-chain decision-making—ranging from real-time signals and smart money tracking to enterprise-grade fraud detection. Our platform delivers high-fidelity on-chain analytics through a high-performance API. We are a small, fast-moving team tackling the most challenging problems in blockchain data. As a Senior Rust Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in architecting systems that process millions of Solana transactions in real-time.

This is an early-stage startup environment. We are looking for an engineer who thrives on high ownership, fast iteration cycles, and the opportunity to ship code that immediately impacts production environments. If you are passionate about building high-throughput infrastructure and solving "hard" data problems, we want to hear from you.

Responsibilities

Senior Validator Engineer (Solana)

Location: Remote - Europe only

Compensation: $180K - $300K

We are reengineering blockchain infrastructure from first principles to make global digital markets as precise and dependable as physical systems. Built on Solana, our platform delivers deterministic execution, guaranteed inclusion, and low-latency performance—solving the foundational failures that cause transactions to miss and systems to collapse under pressure.

By placing high-performance compute close to where transactions happen and coordinating execution through our advanced scheduling engine, we empower developers to build scalable applications and give institutions the reliability they demand. We believe financial infrastructure should behave like physics: fast, reliable, and predictable—every time, without exception.

As a Senior Validator Engineer, you will spearhead our engineering efforts surrounding the Solana Validator (both Agave and Firedancer), driving the innovation and implementation of next-generation high-performance distributed systems. You will join a highly proficient team of core engineers who have all contributed to foundational network components.

Senior Backend Engineer (Intents & Order Infrastructure)

Location: Remote - Based in EMEA regions
compensation: $130K - $165K

We are simplifying multi-chain DeFi for traditional financial institutions, fintechs, and service providers. Our platform offers a unified API to access all on-chain liquidity across major blockchains, ensuring the best prices for same-chain and cross-chain swaps. We are a passionate, remote-first team on a mission to enable a fairer, more decentralized world by making complex blockchain technologies accessible to everyone.

We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to lead the development and scaling of our core off-chain coordination service. This is a critical infrastructure role, as the Order Server acts as the central hub for the entire Intent lifecycle—from quote aggregation and validation to real-time broadcasting and cross-chain status tracking.

In this role, you will build secure, high-throughput systems using TypeScript and NestJS that allow applications to discover competitive quotes while protecting the network from fraudulent orders. This position is vital for the success of our solver-based architecture and requires a deep focus on security, performance, and reliability.
