The posting

Software Engineer, Backend Systems

Company: Confidential — venture-backed technology company

Location: New York, NY (on-site)

Compensation: $185,000 - $300,000 + competitive equity

Employment Type: Full-time

Visa Sponsorship: TN and H-1B transfers only (excluding H-1B holders in year 3 or year 6)

About the Company

The client is building a single front end for crypto trading. Today retail traders are spread across multiple front ends, browser-extension wallets, bridges and a growing list of venues. The client brings perpetuals, cross-chain spot and prediction markets into one portfolio-margin trading experience with a single unified balance, extending USDC collateral to the venues of each user's choice.

One co-founder built Insilico Terminal, which the company describes as the leading order execution and management system for centralized exchanges; the other ran one of the top on-chain and centralized-exchange high-frequency trading firms. The client has raised $15M+ and has a team of about 10.

The Role

The client is looking for a backend engineer with production Rust experience to help build the infrastructure behind its real-time trading platform: risk, settlement, market data and the APIs traders depend on. This role suits someone with strong asynchronous programming, solid systems knowledge and a performance-driven mindset who thrives in a collaborative, in-person environment.

What You Will Do

  • Build and maintain risk and liquidation engines that improve capital efficiency in volatile markets.
  • Design and implement the blockchain state machines that power trading, settlement and risk.
  • Build services that keep state consistent across asynchronous processes using voting, consensus and coordination.
  • Process live market data and coordinate actions across trading venues over WebSocket streams.
  • Build high-performance REST and WebSocket APIs with millisecond-level response times.

What You Bring

  • 2-4 years as a backend software engineer
  • In-depth production experience with Rust
  • Strong asynchronous programming (Tokio a plus) and distributed systems knowledge
  • A performance-driven mindset for latency-sensitive, real-time systems
  • Ability to work on-site in New York

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.
