About this role

We are hiring high-caliber engineers with 3+ years of experience to build low-latency, high-throughput trading infrastructure in Rust, working directly under senior systems architects. This is a hands-on coding role on performance-critical systems — you will write, test, and ship the core code.
Responsibilities
  1. Develop and maintain high-performance backend services in Rust under the guidance of senior engineers
  2. Implement components of distributed, fault-tolerant systems handling high transaction volumes
  3. Write extensive unit, property-based, and simulation tests for correctness-critical code - Profile and optimize code for latency, throughput, and memory efficiency - Participate in design discussions and rigorous code reviews
  4. Debug and resolve issues in Linux-based production environments
Required Qualifications
  1. B.Tech/M.Tech in Computer Science from an IIT or NIT (mandatory) - 3+ years of professional software development experience in Rust, C++, or Java/Go with systems-level work; strong Rust proficiency or demonstrated ability to attain it fast - Understanding of financial markets and trading systems — order books, order types, matching concepts, spot and derivatives (futures/options) basics; hands-on experience with trading, broking, or market data systems is a strong plus - Excellent computer science fundamentals — data structures, algorithms, operating systems, networking, concurrency
  2. Solid grasp of multithreading and memory management; exposure to performance profiling and benchmarking
  3. Understanding of distributed systems concepts — replication, consistency, message queues (Kafka/NATS or similar)
  4. Experience with Linux, Git, and modern development workflows
  5. Strong problem-solving ability and hunger to work on hard systems problems
Preferred
  1. Competitive programming background (Codeforces/ICPC/CodeChef ratings welcome on the CV)
  2. Personal or open-source Rust projects
  3. Exposure to low-latency techniques — lock-free structures, zero-allocation design, binary protocols (SBE/Protobuf/FlatBuffers)
  4. NISM certifications, trading experience (personal F&O/options trading counts), or coursework in financial engineering
  5. Exposure to consensus algorithms (Raft), event sourcing, or deterministic testing
Growth Path
You will be mentored directly by senior systems engineers with deep exchange-infrastructure experience, with a defined progression to senior engineer ownership of subsystems within 18–24 months. This team is being built as a center of excellence in low-latency systems engineering in India.
Selection Process
  1. Resume shortlisting (college + evidence of strong engineering: projects, CP ratings, internships)
  2. Online DSA + systems assessment
  3. Live coding round (Rust/C++, performance-oriented problem)
  4. Systems and trading-concepts discussion round
  5. Culture and ownership round with the senior engineer you will report to
   Compensation: top of market for the experience band, benchmarked against product companies, not services.
