About PrimeXBT: PrimeXBT (primexbt.com) is an industry-leading global financial technology and cryptocurrency trading platform providing synthetic margin accounts, multi-asset liquidity pools, and advanced market execution systems to retail and institutional traders worldwide. Handling billions of dollars in daily transactional volume across Contracts for Difference (CFDs), foreign exchange pairs, global stock indices, commodities, and digital assets, our infrastructure operates under intense speed and volatility. We replace bureaucratic corporate layers with a fast-moving, high-ownership engineering laboratory, ensuring ultra-low-latency order execution and bulletproof connection stability.
Position Overview
We are seeking an exceptionally analytical, data-focused, and highly autonomous Python Developer with specialized expertise in the CFD and crypto trading markets to join our core Trading / Dealing team under a permanent, full-time remote engagement framework. Operating as an embedded software engineer on the trading desk, you will step up to claim direct scriptwriting, streaming channel optimization, and algorithmic interface accountability across our multi-asset execution pipelines. Shifting completely away from routine back-office data logs, basic frontend content management, or slow-moving database paperwork, you will run an active high-frequency liquidity integration, WebSocket streaming, and live risk-management tool laboratory—partnering face-to-face with professional dealers, risk managers, and core infrastructure engineers. This position requires a tech specialist with 3+ years of professional backend depth who structures event-driven data streaming fluidly natively using Python architectures, evaluates multi-counterparty connectivity cleanly across FIX API channels, and directs algorithmic execution workflows confidently under rapid market fluctuations.
Key Responsibilities
- Dealing Desk Tool Development: Architect, construct, and optimize internal automated dealing and execution management tools directly supporting our live trading desk.
- Liquidity Provider Integration: Build, scale, and maintain high-fidelity integrations with tier-1 liquidity providers utilizing FIX API protocols, REST backends, and low-latency WebSocket streaming.
- Crypto Exchange Pipelines: Connect and secure low-latency data feeds with global cryptocurrency exchanges via high-throughput WebSocket networks and transactional REST APIs natively utilizing Python frameworks.
- Counterparty Connectivity Monitoring: Audit and maintain the continuous, uninterrupted stability of external counterparty connections, preventing message dropouts and reducing transaction latency.
- Workflow Automation and Optimization: Partner directly with the active dealing division to spot manual trading inefficiencies, automating data flows to enhance order-routing speed.
- Risk Management Infrastructure: Contribute to the architectural design and enhancement of back-office risk analytical tools, accounting ledgers, and margin verification tables.
Required Skills & Qualifications
- A minimum of 3 years of verified professional experience in software engineering, with a core focus on backend systems building using Python.
- Deep, applied comprehension of the CFD and cryptocurrency markets, showing distinct mastery over trading mechanics, derivatives pricing, and financial instruments (including indices, FX, commodities, and digital assets).
- Direct, hands-on development experience implementing and configuring the FIX API protocol for financial messaging.
- Proven background building real-time data streaming layers using both WebSockets (WS) and RESTful API structures.
- Practical familiarity with the unique architecture requirements of low-latency systems and institutional trading environments.
- Excellent communication strengths in English, with a calm, self-directed mindset capable of translating complex system behaviors to non-technical market stakeholders.
- Location Context: Position features 100% remote work parameters open to qualified software developers operating from an optimized home workspace globally.
Preferred Strategic Indicators (Nice to Have)
- Prior experience working directly within an active brokerage dealing desk, proprietary trading firm, or hedge fund environment.
- Familiarity with event-driven architectures, asyncio processing pipelines, and high-performance numerical data structures.
What We Offer
- Vetted, Global FinTech Compensation Package: Highly competitive, experience-calibrated base salary aligned to technical depth, market value, and execution metrics.
- A fully distributed remote workspace layout providing complete geographic location autonomy and zero-fluff project deliverables.
- The exceptional opportunity to design and own critical programmatic layers for a leading-edge margin trading product.
- A flat, technical group culture focused on outcome delivery, engineering autonomy, and immediate production impact.
