This is a hands-on role covering backend engineering, smart contract integration, and trading-adjacent systems, working closely with experienced engineers, product, and UX in a fast-moving, production-focused environment.
What you’ll be doing
* Building and maintaining backend services and public APIs in Rust and Python

* Contributing to the evolution of a performance-critical DeFi trading platform
What we’re looking for
* Strong experience with Rust and Python
* 3–4+ years in crypto / DeFi-native roles

* Understanding of DEXs and trading concepts (hands-on or theoretical)
* Comfortable operating production systems in a cloud environment
