Senior Rust Backend Engineer

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.

WHAT WILL BE YOUR AGENDA?

- 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.

WHAT WILL YOU BRING TO THE TABLE?

- 3+ years of professional Rust development - you think in Rust, this isn't a "learning on the job" position.
