Such a fantastic opportunity for a Senior Engineer to join a growing digital asset firm that has a high-performing trading application.

Company
Based in Melbourne, this company is a digital asset investment firm with deep experience in institutional investing. The company has built a strong reputation in the market and also a range of structured products such as a crypto trading platform, digital asset custody, treasury and lending, and market making. With these products, the organisation has been trusted by a large client base, and with the market taking a bounce back, it is a good time to grow their presence in Melbourne.

Role
You will be based in Melbourne and will play a crucial role in developing and maintaining the trading applications which are tailored for their traders. You will bring on-board experience in a financial market setting, ideally working in a front-office environment, to grow the engineering function within the business. There are some first year grads within the company, so you will mentor/guide them around best engineering practices, champion their engineering, and also provide guidance. Outside your hands-on duties, you will help grow the engineering environment within the business, providing suggestions around automation, testing, release/deployment, and SRE/DevOps principles. For the right person, this is a fantastic opportunity for someone to grow a team, culture, environment, and do it all within a business that has road map for continued expansion.

• You need to have experience in a financial markets setting, working in a prop-trading firm or investment bank.
