We're building a tech-hedge-fund-style intraday algorithmic trading platform and are looking for a Rust / Python Quant Developer with strong data and cloud engineering expertise.
You'll work on everything from trading signal logic to large-scale data pipelines and infrastructure automation.
You'll join our core team of two highly experienced quants who are also full-stack developers with deep data and cloud expertise. The bar is high but the learning curve and impact are massive.
It's absolutely fine if you're not yet an expert in every area; you'll grow into it quickly working alongside us. We'll mentor and support you closely throughout the process.
Our system goes live next week and you'll play a key role in evolving it from a powerful launch version into a world-class trading engine.
Tasks
* Design and implement scalable modular and testable trading and backend components (e.g. bot signals for technical indicators orderflow price action ML-based algorithms) in Rust
* Improve and extend our strategy optimization framework in Rust
* Develop and maintain TB-scale Dagster / DBT ETL pipelines in Python
* Optimize data ingestion storage and queries for TimescaleDB / PostgreSQL
* Maintain and enhance our K3s cluster on Hetzner Cloud (autoscaling reliability observability) using Terraform Helm and Kustomize
* Build and extend Grafana dashboards and alerting systems for market data bot observability and system health
* Collaborate closely with our bot operators to detect analyze and fix issues in live trading
Requirements
Core :
* Strong experience in Rust (most important skill!)
* Proven background in Python-based data engineering and scalable data architectures
* Basic Kubernetes skills
* Proficiency with the Grafana Stack (dashboards monitoring alerting capacity planning)
* Genuine passion for financial markets and algorithmic trading
* Strong academic background and / or impressive track record
* Confidence and ambition to compete at a global level with the brightest minds
* Highly collaborative low-ego mindset typically more introverted but deeply focused and reliable
* IT and coding aren't just your job they’re your biggest passion
Nice to Have :
* Strong math and ML skills (big plus for improving our optimization engine)
* Solid experience with autoscaling Kubernetes (K3s) Terraform and Helm / Kustomize on Hetzner Cloud
* Experience with TimescaleDB / TigerData
* Familiarity with financial data especially Databento API (CME futures)
* C# skills (Quantower or NinjaTrader integration)
* Knowledge of AI / agent systems (e.g. n8n LLMs Reinforcement Learning)
Benefits
* Work on a cutting-edge high-performance trading platform probably the most exciting playground you've seen as a tech / quant enthusiast
* Collaborate with a small elite international quant team
* Risk-free paid probation period (part-time) ideal to test long‑term fit while keeping your current job (1020h / week over 6 months)
* Remote‑first culture
* Possibility of a long‑term collaboration if the work results meet expectations
* Learn faster and deeper than anywhere else directly from highly experienced quants and developers
Process
* Short interview (1.5h) no LeetCode nonsense no live coding. Just a real deep‑level tech talk between quant / tech nerds
* 6‑month paid trial (part‑time beside your current job) to ensure a strong mutual fit for both sides
* Offer for a long‑term collaboration with a very competitive compensation package (Base Profit‑Share VSOPs)
