Hands-on experience with trading markets or frontend development for a trading firm or exchange.
Experience integrating REST APIs and WebSocket streams, and familiarity with Jest, Vitest, Cypress, and CI/CD.
An active GitHub with recent code and live frontend work that demonstrates polished visual quality.
