Platform Engineer
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
