Description

Full Stack Engineer - Python/Rust & React

We’re partnering with a well‑capitalised, globally active hedge fund to hire a Full Stack Engineer into a high‑impact portfolio systems team. This group builds and owns the firm’s core transaction and position ledger - critical infrastructure used daily by portfolio managers and trading teams across multiple asset classes.

This is a true full‑stack role: backend services, event‑driven architecture, and a React/TypeScript frontend, all in production and close to the investment workflow.

What You’ll Be Working On

  • Designing and owning high‑performance, multithreaded backend services in Python, C#, or Rust
  • Building event‑driven, service‑oriented systems using Kafka or Kinesis
  • Developing React/TypeScript UIs used directly by trading and operations teams
  • Deploying and operating cloud‑native, serverless infrastructure on AWS
  • Working across SQL Server, Postgres, and Snowflake for transaction data and analytics

What They’re Looking For

  • 5-15 years of experience in a production, enterprise engineering environment, with recent experience in finance
  • Strong backend fundamentals in Python, C#, or Rust
  • Proven ability to work end‑to‑end across the stack, including React (mandatory) and TypeScript
  • Production exposure to cloud platforms (AWS or Azure)
  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in Computer Science, Engineering, or a STEM discipline from a strong academic institution

If you’re a full stack engineer, with experience in finance, looking for real ownership, technical depth, and direct impact on how capital is managed, this is well worth a conversation. Apply for more information.
