• Proficiency in at least one modern backend programming language. Python and Rust are a strong plus.
• A strong track record of solving complex technical problems and delivering results.
• Solid understanding of programming concepts, system architecture, and performance optimisation.
• Independent, self-motivated, and able to work effectively in a distributed team.
• Bonus points for experience in:
• Crypto/blockchain
• Financial engineering or algorithmic trading
• Start-ups or fast-growth environments
• Machine learning or quantitative systems

What You’ll Get

• Highly competitive salary – up to £110,000/month gross
• Profit-sharing opportunities
• Flexible working hours – results matter more than clock time
• Annual personal development budget – £3,000 to spend on courses, training, or conferences
• Regular team meetups and international retreats
• Freedom to shape your working environment with additional perks (wellness, food, transport, etc.)

You’ll be part of a small, elite team working on real-world problems with measurable impact in a cutting-edge industry. We value autonomy, fast feedback, and constant learning. If you thrive in environments where innovation meets execution, this is your opportunity to build something truly meaningful.
