Role overview

We’re hiring a founding, full-stack engineer who thrives in startup environments and can own critical paths end-to-end: backend services, execution reliability, CI/CD, cloud infra, and the extension UI. You’ll ship fast, instrument everything, and lead the trading execution layer (low-latency, high-reliability) from internal beta to broader rollout. Your focus will be hardening execution, reliability, and scale. You’ll work directly with the founder; our technical advisor (founding engineer) supports architecture continuity during handover.

Responsibilities

  • Own the execution path: order orchestration, risk rails (SL/TP, slippage buffers, retries/backoff), error codes, incident playbooks.

  • Full-stack delivery: TypeScript/Node REST APIs, Python workers & REST APIs, React/Chrome extension, NextJs frontend, Postgres.
  • Production reliability: observability (logs/metrics/traces), alerting, rate-limits, feature flags, kill-switch.
  • CI/CD & infra: Containerization (Docker), automated tests/deploys, IaC, secure secrets, staging/prod parity, cost-aware cloud.
  • Security & privacy: non-custodial flows, wallet interactions, principle of least privilege.
  • Roadmap collaboration: signal-provider marketplace, CEX integrations.

Representative Technologies

  • Backend: Node.js (TypeScript, Node 20), Python (async workers), WebSockets/REST, Postgres, Redis/queues.
  • Frontend: React Chrome Extension APIs, content scripts, overlay UI. NextJs
  • Cloud & DevOps: AWS (VPC, ECS (EC2), RDS), Docker, Terraform/CDK, GitHub Actions, Sentry/PostHog/Grafana.
  • Trading/Web3: Hyperliquid APIs (HyperCore), wallet flows, signing; additional exchange APIs later.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years building and operating production systems end-to-end in startup environments.
  • Self-starter with founder mindset: clarify, design, ship, measure, iterate.
  • Strong in Python and Node.js/TypeScript; comfortable context-switching across the stack.
  • Hands-on across backend, CI/CD, cloud infra, and frontend.
  • Pragmatic testing: unit/integration, load testing for execution paths, telemetry-first approach.
  • Solid engineering hygiene: reviews, documentation, security, and calm debugging under pressure.

Bonus Experience

  • Blockchain engineering (wallets, signing, EVM/HL or similar) and/or financial markets/exchange systems.
  • Chrome extension performance & permission model expertise.
  • Low-latency systems, back-pressure, numeric stability (PnL/ATR/RR).
  • Zero-to-one product launches and ownership of on-call.
