The Role:

As an experienced Senior Software Engineer you will help build our flagship Clear Street Studio, a modern brokerage experience. You will tackle non trivial problems that force you to balance trade offs while implementing clean and efficient solutions. You will join our team of passionate and collaborative engineers to build core services for our world-class financial platform designed to handle all aspects of client needs while maintaining a high SLA.

You will develop a wide range of services, from user authentication and authorization to client data delivery. You will have the opportunity to solve complex problems that will challenge your system design skills, implement clean and efficient code, and simplify complexity through feature and service design. As a senior team member, you will mentor teammates, evolve our technical standards and best practices, and promote a culture of system design.

The Team:

Our team is composed of highly talented and motivated engineers who are passionate about pushing the boundaries of financial technology. Working together, we have built a platform that serves institutional clients and is at the forefront of technological innovation. As a member of our team, you will have the opportunity to work with cutting-edge technologies, collaborate with colleagues from diverse backgrounds, and make a meaningful impact on the financial industry. We value creativity, innovation, and a strong work ethic, and we are committed to providing our team members with the support and resources they need to succeed.

Requirements:

  • You have at least seven (7) years of professional experience implementing highly scalable services in Java with a deep understanding of the Spring Framework ecosystem.
  • You have contributed to systems that deliver solutions to complex business problems that handle massive amounts of data. You are drawn towards scale, distributed systems, and associated technologies.
  • You can clearly explain the nuances of system design and paradigms to engineers and stakeholders.
  • You prioritize end user experience and it shows in your APIs design, functionality, and performance.
  • You have a strong command over design patterns, data structures, and algorithms.
  • You communicate technical ideas with ease and always look to collaborate to deliver high quality products.
  • Your experience will help you mentor team members, define our engineering standards, and drive a system design approach to building new services.
  • Preferred, but not required, experience on the Platform team’s stack: Authentication providers and protocols (OAuth2), Fine-Grained Authorization experience (systems like Auth0 FGA or Authzed), gRPC, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, Gradle and Kubernetes. Readiness to learn this stack is required.

We offer:

  • The opportunity to join a growing team of good people, where you can make a difference.
  • A new, high-quality code base with little technical debt and room to build new services and features.
  • An environment that embraces the utility of a DevOps oriented culture and combines it with a focus on CI/CD methodology.
  • A meritocratic philosophy that champions collaboration.
  • Competitive compensation, benefits, and perks.

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.
