Rust Developer – Market Making and Liquidity Provision

We are looking for a strong Rust developer to join our trading technology team and build high-performance systems for market making and liquidity provision. You will design, implement, and optimize low-latency components that power our automated market-making strategies across crypto, FX, or traditional markets. What You’ll Do Design and implement low-latency market-making engines and liquidity provision logic in Rust Build and optimize order management, risk checks, inventory management, and quoting systems Develop high-performance connectivity to exchanges (REST, WebSocket, FIX, or proprietary protocols) Work on real-time data pipelines, market data handlers, and state management Profile and optimize for latency, throughput, and memory usage Collaborate with quant researchers and traders to productionize strategies Improve reliability, observability, and fault tolerance of the trading stack Participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and continuous improvement of the codebase Requirements Strong proficiency in Rust (ownership, async, concurrency, unsafe when justified, performance-critical code) Experience building low-latency or high-throughput systems (trading, HFT, market making, or similar domains preferred) Solid understanding of market microstructure, order books, market making, and liquidity provision concepts Experience with networking (TCP, WebSockets, FIX) and binary protocols Familiarity with concurrency primitives, lock-free structures, and performance profiling tools Strong computer science fundamentals (algorithms, data structures, systems programming) Comfortable working in a fast-paced, production trading environment Nice to Have Prior experience in market making, prop trading, or crypto/DeFi liquidity provision Knowledge of exchange APIs (CEX or DEX) Experience with time-series data, order book reconstruction, or simulation frameworks Familiarity with risk management systems or position/inventory controls Exposure to C++ or other systems languages (helpful for interop or legacy systems) Experience with monitoring/observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, etc.) What We Offer Competitive compensation + performance-based upside Opportunity to work on production market-making systems with real impact High-ownership role with direct influence on architecture and performance Collaborative team of engineers, quants, and traders Flexible remote/hybrid work
