You'll also have the opportunity to contribute to research and data processing tasks across the company.

Requirements:

  1. 1-2 years of experience with Python3.
  2. Proficiency with high-performance libraries such as Numpy.
  3. Experience with JIT compilers like Numba.
  4. Strong adherence to best practices in code management and testing.
  5. Familiarity with APIs and Websockets.
  6. Experience working in a Linux environment.
  7. Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to tackle diverse tasks.
  8. Experience deploying applications to live environments.

Nice-to-Haves:

  1. Experience with databases such as SQL.
  2. Proficiency in other programming languages, particularly lower-level languages like C++.

Why Join Them?

  1. Be part of a small, elite team where your contributions make a significant impact.
  2. Work in a fast-paced, innovative environment at the forefront of cryptocurrency trading.
  3. Enjoy the flexibility and autonomy that comes with a lean, automation-focused team.
