We’re partnering with a fast-moving, VC-backed trading fintech startup headquartered in San Francisco. They're on a mission to reshape the future of retail trading infrastructure and are now scaling their engineering team across Asia.


We’re looking for a sharp, driven backend developer (Golang) to help strengthen their core trading engine and optimize system performance at scale. If you're excited by high-throughput systems, close collaboration with technical founders, and building from the ground up, this one’s for you!


Requirements:

  • Minimum 2 years of experience in a startup or trading environment, with a track record of building real-time systems from scratch
  • Proficient in Golang, or strong experience in Rust/ Python and C++ with the willingness to pick up Go
  • Solid hands-on experience with distributed systems – including message queues, pub-sub, batch processing, and websockets
  • Comfortable with modern cloud infrastructure tools like AWS, Terraform, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines
  • Quick-thinking, adaptable, and creative, applying first-principles thinking to solve complex problems
  • Deep interest and background in trading, finance, or crypto platforms
  • Mandarin proficiency is a strong advantage for cross-regional collaboration


Location & Work Setup:

  • Fully remote for candidates based in Singapore, with an option to relocate


What's In It For You:

  • Build from the Ground Up: Join an early-stage, high-growth startup where your code directly shapes the future of a next-gen trading platform.
  • Work alongside ex-traders and engineers from top global hedge funds and tech firms in a tight-knit, high-caliber environment.
  • Career Acceleration: Early ownership, exposure to technical leadership, and fast learning cycles!
