Job description

and deliver production-grade software that performs reliably under heavy load.

You will work directly with senior stakeholders across technical and non-technical

Requirements

The ability to communicate clearly, manage complexity across people and systems, and

maintain a high quality bar when things get difficult is essential.

If you have built and shipped systems that mattered - at a startup, at a large company, or

somewhere in between - and you are looking for a role where you will be challenged

technically while also growing your ability to operate in complex, high-stakes

environments, we want to hear from you.

What You Will Do

Frontend Architecture

  • Build scalable frontend platforms using React, Next.js, and TypeScript.

  • Design modern UI architectures: server-side rendering, component-driven design,

performance optimization, and state management patterns.

  • Develop reusable component systems and scalable frontend frameworks.

Backend Engineering

  • Build backend services using Node.js and NestJS.

  • Design and implement REST APIs, microservices, asynchronous workflows, and

high-performance data processing systems.

  • Work with SQL and NoSQL databases using TypeORM, and optimize for throughput

and reliability.

Event-Driven & Distributed Systems

  • Design distributed systems built on event-driven architecture using Kafka, Azure

Service Bus, Azure Event Grid, and messaging/queue systems.

  • Build services that process high-volume financial events and real-time trading data.

Cloud & Infrastructure

  • Deploy and operate systems on Microsoft Azure, including Azure App Services,

Azure Data Fabric, messaging platforms, Docker, CI/CD pipelines, and Linux

environments.

  • Design infrastructure that supports resilient, scalable distributed systems.

What Sets You Apart

We are looking for engineers who demonstrate several of the following:

  • You have designed and operated event-driven distributed systems that process

high-volume real-time data.

  • You have a deep understanding of algorithms, data structures, and time complexity

  • and you apply that understanding to build systems, not just pass interviews.

  • You have built full-stack platforms using React/Next.js and Node.js/NestJS that run

reliably in production.

  • You have hands-on experience with message queues, streaming platforms, and

asynchronous workflows - Kafka, Azure Service Bus, BullMQ, or similar.

  • You reason clearly about system trade-offs: latency vs. throughput, consistency vs.

availability, speed vs. reliability.

  • You have operated systems in cloud environments like Microsoft Azure, including

debugging production incidents and improving performance under pressure.

  • You design systems end-to-end and take ownership of architecture and production

outcomes - not just the code you wrote.

  • You have mentored other engineers and contributed to architecture reviews,

engineering standards, and technical decision-making.

  • You communicate well under pressure. You can hold your ground in a room full of

stakeholders, explain a technical decision to a non-technical audience, and navigate

situations where the right path forward is not obvious.
