Trading Platform Engineer (Exchange Connectivity)
Location: Remote (with occasional visits to the London office if required)
Salary: Circa 100K - 130K + Benefits
We're working with a trading-focused business looking to hire a Platform Engineer with experience connecting into exchanges, particularly within crypto environments
This isn't a standard DevOps role; the key requirement is experience integrating with trading venues and understanding how those systems behave in production
What you'll be doing:
* Building and maintaining platform infrastructure across AWS
* Supporting and improving connectivity into crypto and/or traditional exchanges
* Working with APIs, WebSockets and potentially FIX protocols
* Ensuring high availability and reliability across trading systems
* Collaborating with engineering and trading teams on performance and scalability
* Troubleshooting connectivity, latency and production issues
Essential:
* Strong platform / infrastructure engineering background
* Experience integrating with exchanges (crypto or traditional)
* Understanding of low latency / high availability environments
* Comfortable working in production-critical systems
* Ability to operate across both infrastructure and application-level connectivity
Nice to have:
* Experience in trading, fintech or crypto environments
* Exposure to low latency systems
* Knowledge of networking and system performance tuning
Tremendous opportunity to work on systems where reliability and real-time performance actually matter, rather than just internal tooling! You'll be part of an engineering-led team with real ownership, building infrastructure that connects directly into exchanges
