It deploys research-driven discretionary and systematic strategies as well as makes strategic long-term investments. The partners' decade-long history of success in trading and business building and a firm-wide cultural emphasis on alpha generation, open debate, relentless iteration, and teamwork are key to the firm's continued expansion in a challenging market environment that has hamstrung competitors. A hard-wired emphasis on risk management and opportunistic market participation ensure that hermeneutic research will continue its growth trajectory in the coming decades.\nJob Overview\nWe are seeking experienced full-stack engineers to build the user interfaces and services for mission-critical financial applications: visual analytics platforms and data-driven tools used by traders, researchers, and analysts.\nYou will work on the TypeScript front-ends and the Go services that serve them. We are evolving our front-end applications into a modular, plugin-based platform that other engineers and teams build on-so you will build reusable UI modules, component libraries, and SDKs as much as end-user features, and also the Go services that ingest, process, and serve market and on-chain data to these applications. You will own your work from structured product requirements through to production.\nThis is a highly collaborative role in a fast-paced environment where clean design, high performance, and responsive UIs are critical to the business.\nYou don't need a background in trading or finance. We care most about engineering craft and will teach you the domain.\nResponsibilities\nCollaborate with traders, researchers, and product managers to translate complex workflows into elegant UI solutions.\nDesign and implement high-performance, responsive front-end applications using a current-generation TypeScript framework (Svelte, React, or Vue).\nDesign, build and operate Go back-end services with security and performance considerations baked into their design.\nOwn service boundaries and data contracts end-to-end, from Go services to typed front-end SDKs.\nBuild reusable UI modules, component libraries, and SDKs for a modular, plugin-based UI platform.\nBuild real-time UIs that ingest and render high-frequency market and on-chain data from multiple streaming sources.\nDevelop high-performance data visualizations for large, fast-updating datasets, using canvas-based charting (e.g. uPlot, TradingView Lightweight Charts) and D3.js for bespoke views.\nIntegrate the front-end with back-end services through typed SDKs and MCP-based interfaces, including real-time market and on-chain data.\nDrive architecture and performance decisions for modular, extensible systems, with scalability and maintainability in mind.\nDeploy and maintain applications, keeping them reliable and performant under heavy load.\nWrite and maintain automated tests and take part in code review to keep the codebase reliable and maintainable.\nSupport system maintenance and feature evolution with a high delivery cadence and short iteration cycles.\nMentor other engineers and promote engineering best practices across the team.\nRequirements\nMust Have\n7+ years of hands-on full-stack development, with production ownership on both back-end and front-end.\nStrong, current TypeScript, HTML, CSS, and one or more modern front-end frameworks (Svelte, React, or Vue), with the adaptability to work primarily in the framework a team has chosen rather than staying tied to one.\nStrong, current Go experience, able to design, build and operate production Go services independently.\nExperience building reusable, well-structured UI components and shared abstractions.\nProven experience handling large datasets and real-time updates from back-end sources (WebSockets, Server-Sent Events).\nStrong understanding of performance optimization and rendering strategies in data-heavy applications, including a solid grasp of the JavaScript runtime.\nSolid testing discipline, with unit and integration tests as a normal part of delivery.\nGenuine UI/UX sensibility-you can tell a polished interface from a rough one, and care about the difference.\nFamiliarity with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and version control.\nExcellent communication and collaboration in a cross-functional team.\nNice to Have\nBackground or strong interest in trading systems or financial platforms.\nExceptional design taste / portfolio-grade UI work.\nExperience with relational databases, data warehouses, and caching strategies.\nExperience with real-time or on-chain / crypto market data.\nExperience with MCP (Model Context Protocol) or other AI-native / agent integration.\nExperience building developer platforms, SDKs, or shared component libraries used by other engineers.\nUnderstanding of microservice architectures, continuous delivery, and zero-downtime deployment.\nExperience with CI/CD pipelines, Docker, and observability tools such as Datadog, Grafana, or ELK.\nPrior work in hedge funds, proprietary trading, or similar finance environments.\nInterview Process\nCV Screening - We will review your application based on the qualifications and experience outlined above.\nPhone Screening - A screening session with a few on-the-spot technical questions to assess your fundamental knowledge and problem-solving approach.\nAssignment - A take-home assignment to demonstrate your approach, critical thinking, and relevant skills.\nAssignment Review - A discussion of your assignment, focusing on your approach, reasoning, and solutions.\nCTO Interview - Interview with the CTO to discuss your experience, technical expertise, problem-solving approach, and overall fit for the role.\nCo-Founder Interview - A concluding discussion to evaluate cultural fit, strategic alignment, and how you resonate with the firm’s values.\nCompany Values\nThroughout the process, you'll be assessed for cultural fit through our company values:\nDrive - We believe the best team members are deeply passionate about what they do. That passion fuels their growth, drives them to seek out the best teams, and leads them to hold high expectations of themselves in pursuit of excellence.\nOwnership - We aim to extend ownership as broadly as possible across the firm. In return, we value people who take initiative, step up when needed, and treat the company’s goals as their own.\nJudgment - We value those who see the big picture and focus on what truly drives impact and results. They use time wisely, adapt across domains, and always prioritize outcomes over comfort zones.\nOpenness - We foster a culture of open communication, mutual challenge, and shared growth. We believe constructive debate and proactive knowledge sharing lead us closer to the truth-and better decisions.\nCompetence - We work with people who bring exceptional intellectual strength. What sets them apart isn’t just what they know-it’s how they use what they know to navigate change, adapt quickly, and contribute meaningfully in fast-changing environments.\n Resilience - We perform under pressure. Markets move fast, and so do we-but we stay grounded, focused, and calm. We embrace uncertainty, learn from setbacks, and adapt quickly without losing sight of long-term goals.","description_format":"text","description_chars":7273,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Taiwan","iso":"TW","kind":"country"},{"name":"Hong Kong","iso":"HK","kind":"country"},{"name":"Singapore","iso":"SG","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Blockchain & Crypto","Hedge Funds & Alternative Investments"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-02T13:11:15Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":4,"expected_fill_days":30,"reasons":["conf:3","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-07T05:47:08Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/hermeneutic-senior-full-stack-engineer-go-typescript-2","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/hermeneutic-senior-full-stack-engineer-go-typescript-2.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-08T04:09:44Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":8961,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-09T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":720326},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=720326"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fhermeneutic-senior-full-stack-engineer-go-typescript-2"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fhermeneutic-senior-full-stack-engineer-go-typescript-2"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fhermeneutic-senior-full-stack-engineer-go-typescript-2"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/hermeneutic-senior-full-stack-engineer-go-typescript-2\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fhermeneutic-senior-full-stack-engineer-go-typescript-2"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3609219}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"hermeneutic.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3609219},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
