Job Description


We’re hiring a Frontend Engineer to help build a brand-new execution platform within a private, proprietary trading environment. This role sits close to the trading desk, building real-time, performance-sensitive interfaces used directly by traders. You’ll be working on greenfield systems with high technical standards and immediate impact.


What you’ll be working on

  • Designing and building trader-facing web applications
  • Creating responsive, high-performance UIs for live execution workflows
  • Collaborating closely with backend engineers and trading teams
  • Contributing to architectural discussions and system design


What we’re looking for

  • Strong JavaScript fundamentals
  • Experience with modern frontend frameworks (React preferred)
  • Solid understanding of software engineering principles
  • Comfort working across the stack (not a purely UI role)
  • Interest in finance or trading systems (deep domain knowledge not required)


Why this role stands out

  • Greenfield platform — no legacy rewrite
  • Direct exposure to live trading activity
  • High-impact work in a proprietary environment (no clients)
  • Strong engineering culture with a high technical bar


Location & setup

  • Hybrid role: minimum 3 days per week onsite in Connecticut
  • Remaining days flexible (NYC office or WFH)
  • Relocation support available
