Blockchain Trading Software Engineer

at  Autumn Compass

Autumn Compass is an algorithmic trading firm combining the disciplines of software engineering, data science and economic theory to develop highly automated and profitable trading strategies, operating on financial markets worldwide. With no external clients, a flat management structure and an SRE culture in the team, engineers have the latitude and support to innovate effectively and make an impact throughout the business.
Although our core business is rooted in traditional stock and futures market trading, we recognise the potential value of blockchain technologies to the extent that they allow efficient raising and storage of capital, and to enable secure and decentralised transactions. As a Blockchain Engineer, you will join a specialised team engaged in executing proprietary trading strategies that interact with both on-chain and off-chain liquidity platforms in the cryptocurrency space.
The role is based in Sydney CBD, however fully remote candidates based elsewhere in Australia may be considered.

JOB REQUIREMENTS

This role is a full-time permanent position open to Australian and New Zealand citizens and permanent residents.

• Develop systems interacting with decentralised peer-to-peer networks and centralised exchange systems to submit trading transactions.
• Employ evidence-driven statistical methods to refine strategies and focus areas for further development.
• Delve into technical details across the entire system to gain a deep understanding in pursuit of competitive edge.
• Collaborate with other highly motivated engineers who will provide you with hands-on training and support. No financial or algorithmic trading experience is required.
