At FTMO, we believe that company growth starts with people. We are a team that pushes forward together, supports one another, and celebrates shared achievements. Our environment creates space for talents to grow – individually, as a team, and across the whole company.
We are currently launching a new crypto-native product, a greenfield initiative that brings the principles we've built our reputation on (transparency, fairness, verifiable track records) into the on-chain world.
You'll be one of the first engineers on a small, autonomous team building from scratch. This isn't a role where you maintain existing systems, you'll design and ship the core backend architecture for a product with real deadlines, real users, and a tight timeline. The first milestone is a working demo within 4 months. Full production launch within 10.
Design and build the core backend services in Rust, real-time data processing, WebSocket infrastructure, and high-throughput event pipelines.
Architect and implement a simulation engine that operates against live market data with sub-second latency requirements.
Build risk and evaluation logic - real-time monitoring, rule-based assessment, automated decision pipelines.
Develop and deploy on-chain programs that record and verify platform activity on blockchains.
Integrate external price feeds - WebSocket order book data, oracle networks, and other liquidity sources.
Own the infrastructure - RPC nodes, CI/CD, monitoring, deployment workflows.
Design for scale from day one - the system must handle thousands of concurrent sessions with real-time data streaming.
Work directly with the Head of Crypto on architecture decisions, feature prioritization, and product direction. You'll have a seat at the table, not just a ticket queue.
3+ years of professional Rust development - you think in Rust, this isn't a "learning on the job" position.
Strong backend systems background - building APIs, WebSocket services, real-time data pipelines, and event-driven architectures.
Experience designing systems for high concurrency and low latency.
Comfort with ambiguity and ownership - you'll often be the only person who knows how a subsystem works, and that's fine with you.
You ship first, polish second - we have 4 months to a private demo. You need to be comfortable with speed over perfection, then iterating.
CS degree or equivalent - we care about what you've built, not where you studied.
Experience with Solana or other EVM-based blockchains, program development, on-chain data patterns, and security considerations.
Familiarity with trading systems, simulation engines, or risk management logic.
Experience with DeFi protocols, oracle networks, or cross-chain infrastructure.
Hackathon participation or open-source contributor.
TypeScript/Node.js for tooling and integration testing.
