Key skills for this role
Our mission is to democratize finance for all. An estimated $124 trillion of assets will be inherited by younger generations in the next two decades. The largest transfer of wealth in human history. If you’re ready to be at the epicenter of this historic cultural and financial shift, keep reading.
We are building an elite team, applying frontier technologies to the world’s biggest financial problems. We’re looking for bold thinkers. Sharp problem-solvers. Builders who are wired to make an impact. Robinhood isn’t a place for complacency, it’s where ambitious people do the best work of their careers. We’re a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do. Expectations are high, and so are the rewards.
The Tokenization team's mission is to bring both public and private equity to be tradable 24/7 on decentralized exchanges (DEXs) across the Robinhood Chain. We work at the intersection of blockchain technology, financial market infrastructure, and modern distributed systems - with a focus on accessibility, security, and scalability. Equity markets have been closed nights and weekends for a century; we're building the infrastructure that changes that.
As a Senior Software Engineer , you will design and build the core systems that issue, custody, and settle tokenized equities on-chain and keep them in sync with traditional brokerage and ledger systems. You'll lead technically complex projects end to end, make architectural decisions on a foundational Robinhood initiative, and work in a domain where correctness is non-negotiable - the systems you build move real customer assets, continuously, across multiple chains and jurisdictions.
This role are based in either our Menlo Park, Toronto or New York city offices, with in-person attendance expected at least 3 days per week.
At Robinhood, we believe in the power of in-person work to accelerate progress, spark innovation, and strengthen community. Our office experience is intentional, energizing, and designed to fully support high-performing teams.
