SOFTWARE ENGINEER $200k - $260k * meaningful equity

About the Role

The infrastructure behind sports trading is broken and this role gives you the opportunity to fix it. Working across the stack, you'll borrow from the world of modern financial exchanges to build markets that are actually transparent and efficient, while keeping the experience seamless for the people using it.

You'll own real-time data pipelines, shape the API that algorithmic traders live in, and have a real say in architecture decisions. One day you're deep in systems-level code, the next you're shipping a frontend component with Design. If sports, markets, and genuinely hard engineering problems get you out of bed in the morning, read on.
