We are delighted to be continuing our partnership with a globally established crypto exchange, founded in the early days of the space and recognised as a true pioneer within digital assets.

They are on a mission to accelerate global crypto adoption, and are looking for experienced C++ Engineers to help build one of the most scalable, secure, and high-performance trading platforms in the market.

As a Software Engineer, you will:

  • Build and enhance core components of the trading engine
  • Design scalable, high-availability systems handling large transaction volumes
  • Improve performance across latency-critical services
  • Work on secure, resilient infrastructure protecting systems and data
  • Collaborate with global teams across multiple tech stacks (C++, Go, Rust, Python)
