Who We Are

About the Opportunity

What You’ll Be Doing

• Build the Next-Generation Risk System (Green-Field): Join a green-field initiative to re-architect and implement our next-generation risk platform in Java from the ground up. You'll have meaningful ownership over technology choices, architecture, and engineering culture for a system that will become the backbone of risk management across our liquidity business.
• Develop Advanced Risk Solutions: Design and implement internal risk monitoring and management systems tailored to strategic and business needs — including real-time market data analysis, PnL and risk calculations, automated alerting, reporting tools, circuit-breaking strategies, and high-availability architecture.
• Strengthen Risk Controls: Optimize existing risk control frameworks and logic to enhance system efficiency, prevent or minimize losses during market volatility, and ensure effective risk mitigation under diverse market scenarios.
• Continuous Improvement: Collaborate with risk managers and product managers to gather feedback and refine the risk management system through iterative development.
• Drive Cross-Functional Projects: Oversee project progress and coordinate with trading desk developers, risk managers, operations teams, and other key stakeholders to deliver high-quality solutions on time.
• Mentor & Share Knowledge: Guide junior engineers in establishing best practices and methodologies for building and maintaining risk control systems.

What We Look For In You

• Passion for Finance & Technology: Strong enthusiasm for trading, blockchain, and the broader financial industry.
• Basic Financial Knowledge: Working understanding of financial markets, instruments, and core concepts such as PnL, margin, leverage, and market risk. Prior experience building or operating risk systems is a strong plus.
• Educational Background: Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, or a related technical discipline. A combined background in finance is highly advantageous.
• Industry Experience: 5+ years of experience in quantitative trading or front-office technology roles at exchanges, banks, or investment institutions. Experience with market-making teams, crypto exchanges, or event-contract / prediction-market platforms is a significant plus.
• Technical Expertise:
  • Programming: Advanced Python skills; Java proficiency strongly preferred given the greenfield re-platforming work.
  • Data & Messaging: SQL, Redis, and Kafka.
  • Cloud: Familiarity with major cloud platforms such as AliCloud or AWS.
  • APIs: Practical experience with RESTful APIs and web services.
  • Environment: Comfortable navigating Linux/Unix shell environments.
• Agentic Programming Fluency: Familiarity with agentic programming concepts (LLM-powered coding agents, tool use, multi-step autonomous workflows) and actively using them — either in your day-to-day work or through serious self-directed learning. Hands-on use of agentic coding tools such as Claude Code or Codex on real production work is a significant plus. We expect engineers on this team to amplify themselves with AI tooling, not just talk about it.
• Risk & Compliance Mindset: Strong aptitude for risk control and compliance, with the ability to adapt systems to evolving control and regulatory requirements.
• Analytical & Collaborative Skills: Strong logical thinking, effective teamwork, and excellent communication skills. Proven ability to organize and align resources to solve complex problems and achieve cross-departmental objectives.

Nice to Haves

• Experience designing internal control and risk management systems for banks, hedge funds, or exchanges.
• Familiarity with auditing reports and working alongside compliance teams, regulatory bodies, or external auditors.
• Exposure to event contract markets, prediction markets, or binary-options pricing (e.g., Polymarket, Kalshi).
• Strong understanding of blockchain technology, smart contracts, and the broader cryptocurrency ecosystem.
• Professional certifications such as CFA, FRM, or equivalent.
• Proficiency in speaking, reading, and writing in both English and Mandarin to collaborate effectively with global and cross-functional team members.
