We are working with a high-performing digital asset trading firm that’s hiring a Middle Software Engineer (C++).

This is a core trading infrastructure role, focused on building and optimising high-performance systems that interact directly with cryptocurrency exchanges.

It’s not general backend development — the work is centred on speed, reliability, and low-latency systems where performance matters.

The Role Involves

Developing and maintaining connections to cryptocurrency exchanges and market data providers
Building and improving core trading system components and platform features
Analysing and troubleshooting market data issues
Collaborating with traders, researchers, and engineers to ensure trading algorithms behave correctly
Optimising systems that process high volumes of data in real time
Contributing to the stability and performance of a fast-moving trading environment where efficiency and reliability are critical

They’re Looking For

3+ years of software development experience
Strong C++ programming skills
Experience working with high-load or performance-sensitive applications
Good understanding of data structures, algorithms, and design patterns
Solid understanding of networking concepts
Exposure to financial markets, distributed systems, or low-latency environments is beneficial

Nice To Have

Experience with Python or Kafka
Familiarity with REST, WebSockets, or FIX protocols
Experience with AWS, Grafana, Kibana, or Prometheus
The environment is highly analytical, fast-paced, and performance-driven, where engineers work closely with trading teams and see the direct impact of their work on trading systems.
