We're supporting a fast-growing fintech fx platform that builds institutional-grade trading and risk-management systems used by global corporates and investment managers. Their engineering teams are scaling out the core trading backbone, a .NET-based microservices environment powering billions in transaction volume.

You'll join a small, high-impact engineering group responsible for modernising and extending their event-driven trading architecture - working across 40+ services, solving complex asynchronous communication challenges, and driving clean software design.

What you'll do

  • Design and build distributed microservices in C#/.NET Core
  • Contribute to architecture and design decisions around messaging, scaling, and reliability
  • Develop across the stack (backend-leaning; React used on newer UIs)
  • Maintain and modernise legacy .NET codebases into cloud-native solutions
  • Apply DDD, async patterns, and testing best practices
  • Collaborate with platform, QA, and AWS-based teams on cross-system integrations

  • Understanding of modern engineering principles (testing, CI/CD, design patterns)
  • Finance or trading experience is a plus
