Senior Platform Engineer

• A technically outstanding engineer who thrives in a fast-moving, high-growth environment and wants to take real ownership in what they build.
• Experience working in a well-known start-up that has successfully scaled
• Exposure to early-stage growth - you've seen what "good" looks like and now want to help build it yourself.
• A strong academic background - ideally in Computer Science, Mathematics, or a related discipline from a top university
• Python (core language)
• Kubernetes, AWS/GCP, and cloud-native systems
• Typescript (for frontend or backend services)
• PostgreSQL and real-time data streaming
• Experience building high-performance, real-time, or distributed systems - ideally in fintech, trading, or infrastructure-scale environments (though other domains are welcome).
