About the Role
Build and scale the core user experience for a retail trading platform. You will own key frontend systems end to end, turning real-time market data into fast, clear, and intuitive tools for traders while partnering with design and backend engineering.
What You'll Do
Build and maintain accessible, scalable web applications and reusable UI libraries.
Create high-performance interactive charts and real-time visualizations that support trading decisions.
Improve application speed and reliability through caching and performance optimization.

One to ten years of professional frontend engineering experience.
Strong skills in React, TypeScript, JavaScript, CSS, and the Web Animations API (WAAPI).
Experience building latency-sensitive, real-time interfaces, such as products for trading, gaming, or casino use cases.
Hands-on trading experience in crypto, perpetuals, or other markets, or frontend experience building for a trading firm or exchange.
Experience with REST APIs, WebSockets, and frontend testing tools such as Jest, Vitest, or Cypress.
A recent public GitHub history and polished live frontend work, such as a deployed product, personal site, or live demos.
Ability to write production-quality code independently and use AI tools to complement, not replace, core engineering work.
