Low-Latency Market Infrastructure Engineer (DEX)
Department: Engineering
Location: New York City
Compensation: $100K – $250K • Offers Equity
Employment Type: FullTime
About Omen
We’re Omen.
We’re building a single, platform where every type of asset at every leverageis tradable in one place.
Imagine buying spot equities and crypto, trading 10x levered Nvidia, short a YC company, or owning tokenized equity in the rental income of a Miami High-rise—all without hopping between fragmented tools, brokers, or protocols.
We believe the future of retail investing should feel as powerful and composable as institutional trading with as much optionality as possible: without sacrificing speed, correctness, or safety.
We’re a team of 8 full-time engineers working in-person out of our own full-floor office in the heart of midtown NYC. The team spans experienced trading-systems builders, career startuppers, seasoned app developers, and more; we are all deeply motivated towards furthering this mission.
About the Role
In this role, you’ll work on the core infrastructure for a DEX (Decentralized Exchange): order matching, margin, funding, liquidation, and the interface between off-chain trading state and on-chain settlement. Decisions you make here directly shape the safety, performance, and scalability of the entire platform.
If you’re excited by the idea of being one of the earliest engineers at a breakneck speed startup, backed by top venture partners; and building the backbone for redefining how our generation invests, we’d love to talk.
