We’re working with a crypto-native DeFi trading platform, backed by a leading digital assets firm (client name kept confidential), to hire a Senior Backend Developer. The team is building high-performance, decentralized trading infrastructure with a strong focus on execution quality and user experience.

This is a hands-on role covering backend engineering, smart contract integration, and trading-adjacent systems, working closely with experienced engineers, product, and UX in a fast-moving, production-focused environment.

What you’ll be doing

• Building and maintaining backend services and public APIs in Rust and Python
• Working directly with EVM smart contracts at an application level
• Contributing to the evolution of a performance-critical DeFi trading platform

What we’re looking for

• Strong experience with Rust and Python
• 3–4+ years in crypto / DeFi-native roles
• Practical experience interacting with Solidity smart contracts (not just high-level)
• Understanding of DEXs and trading concepts (hands-on or theoretical)
• Comfortable operating production systems in a cloud environment
