The posting

THE COMPANY

Arta is on an audacious and incredibly rewarding mission: to pave the way for people everywhere to lead more successful financial lives. Arta leverages AI and sophisticated digital tools to make financial products once reserved for ultra-high-net-worth individuals accessible to a broader global audience. Think of it as your own digital family office, combining intelligent investment strategies, alternative assets, private market access, and smart automation to help you grow and protect your wealth effortlessly. We value trust, teamwork, and adaptability.

THE ROLE

We’re building the core systems that power Arta’s wealth platform — including trading infrastructure, ledgering, billing, and real-time data pipelines.

This role focuses on high-reliability financial systems, where correctness, consistency, and latency are critical.

You’ll work on systems such as:

- Trading and order workflows

- Ledger and portfolio accounting systems

- Market data and analytics pipelines

You may also interface with AI-powered systems, but your primary focus is building the financial and data backbone that everything else depends on.

If you enjoy building systems where correctness is non-negotiable and failure has real consequences, this role will suit you well.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

- Design and build core financial systems (trading, ledger, billing)

- Develop systems for transaction processing, reconciliation, and portfolio state management

- Build and scale real-time and batch data pipelines

- Architect APIs and backend services for internal and external use

- Ensure system reliability, observability, and fault tolerance

- Contribute to distributed systems design (event-driven systems, microservices, streaming)

- Partner with ML teams to integrate models into production systems (as needed, not core focus)

WHO YOU ARE

- 5+ years backend or systems engineer with experience in distributed systems

- Experience in at least one:

- Financial systems (trading, ledger, payments)

- Data infrastructure

- Scalable backend platforms

- Strong understanding of system design, consistency, and reliability

- Solid programming skills (Python or similar)

- Experience with modern infra (Kafka, Kubernetes, cloud, etc.)

- Location: We work 3 days/week in our Mountain View office.

STRONG PLUS

- Experience with financial primitives (ledger, order management, reconciliation)

- Experience in low-latency or high-throughput systems

- Exposure to data platforms or streaming systems

- Some familiarity with ML systems (nice-to-have, not required)

INTERVIEW PROCESS - ONE IN-PERSON TECHNICAL INTERVIEW IS REQUIRED FOR ALL CANDIDATES

- Intro call with Recruiting Team, 30m - Virtual

- 2 Coding/Algorithm/Data Structures, 60m each - 1 In-person, 2nd may be virtual

- Domain Knowledge & System Design, 60m - In-person

- Leadership Interview, 30m - In-person or Virtual

NOTE: WE REQUIRE AT LEAST ONE IN-PERSON TECHNICAL INTERVIEW BEFORE MAKING OUR OFFER DECISION. CANDIDATES LOCATED OUTSIDE OF THE BAY AREA WILL BE REQUIRED TO VISIT THE MOUNTAIN VIEW HQ TO MEET THE TEAM.

INTERVIEW INTEGRITY NOTICE TO ENSURE A FAIR AND ACCURATE ASSESSMENT, CANDIDATES ARE EXPECTED TO COMPLETE ALL INTERVIEW EXERCISES INDEPENDENTLY, WITHOUT THE USE OF EXTERNAL ASSISTANCE OR AI TOOLS. ARTA MAY, WITH YOUR CONSENT, REQUEST THAT YOU SHARE YOUR FULL SCREEN DURING TECHNICAL PORTIONS OF THE INTERVIEW TO VERIFY YOUR WORK ENVIRONMENT. INTERVIEWERS MAY ALSO, WITH YOUR CONSENT, ASK YOU TO TEMPORARILY DISABLE VIRTUAL BACKGROUNDS OR FILTERS TO CONFIRM YOUR IDENTITY AND MAINTAIN INTERVIEW INTEGRITY. THESE STEPS ARE VOLUNTARY, USED ONLY FOR REAL-TIME VERIFICATION, AND DO NOT INVOLVE RECORDING, STORING, OR ACCESSING ANY INFORMATION BEYOND WHAT YOU CHOOSE TO DISPLAY DURING THE SESSION.

WHAT WE OFFER

- A competitive salary and benefits package, with ample opportunities for growth and advancement

- A vibrant and dynamic work environment where innovation, collaboration, and continuous learning are highly valued

- The opportunity to work with a diverse and talented team of industry experts, passionate about shaping the future of finance

- Robust health insurance offering for you and your family

- High deductible health plan available with health savings account contribution

- Generous parental leave

- Competitive PTO benefits

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
