Role Overview

We are looking for an experienced Senior Backend Engineer to join our core engineering team.

This role focuses on trading systems engineering. Based on mutual interest and company needs, there is an optional opportunity to specialize later in our blockchain infrastructure teams (Gateway, Cluster, Smart Contracts).

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and operate core components of our trading platform, including the matching engine, order management systems, real-time market data, and trade data gateways.
  • Optimize backend services for low latency, high throughput, and high reliability.
  • Build and maintain resilient, scalable systems designed for a 24/7 mission-critical environment.
  • Collaborate with engineers, quants, and product managers to deliver product features.
  • Contribute to high engineering standards through code reviews and mentorship.



Job Requirements


Required:

  • 4+ years of professional experience building high-performance, distributed backend systems.
  • Strong proficiency in Go (Golang) and a solid understanding of its concurrency models and performance characteristics.
  • Proven problem-solving skills, with a good foundation in data structures, algorithms, and system design.
  • A pragmatic approach to engineering with a track record of shipping robust, well-tested code.
  • Good communication and collaboration skills.


Preferred (Nice-to-Haves):

  • Direct experience with trading systems, financial exchanges (in crypto or traditional finance), or HFT platforms.
  • Familiarity with performance tuning, low-latency optimization techniques, and building fault-tolerant systems.
  • An interest in or exposure to blockchain technologies (e.g., Ethereum, L2s, Solidity).
  • Experience with modern infrastructure tools like Kubernetes, Docker, and cloud platforms (GCP/AWS).

Why Join GRVT?

  • Impactful Work: Work on core financial systems where performance and reliability are critical.
  • Professional Growth & Training: We provide structured training to help you deepen your expertise in modern trading systems architecture, with optional pathways to learn about blockchain technology.
  • Direct Contribution: As a senior engineer, your work will directly influence the foundation and success of our platform.
  • Collaborative Environment: Join a team of experienced professionals focused on building high-quality products in a supportive setting.

If you are an engineer interested in building high-performance financial systems, we encourage you to apply.
