From OpenFX's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
OpenFX is on a mission to move money as freely as data, unrestricted by time zones, banking hours, or legacy systems. We are building the infrastructure that will power the next generation of cross-border payment systems for institutions. The team's execution has been exceptional, and we're scaling at a remarkable pace. Our stellar early team comes with experience in companies like J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs, FalconX, Paypal, Affirm, Polygon, Kraken, Nium & others. We're backed by Accel, Lightspeed, NfX and other top-tier investors.
Role Overview
We're hiring a Senior Backend Engineer for our Hedging team — the team that owns the risk OpenFX carries.
Hedging owns inventory and exposure management, risk management, hedging positions across venues through smart routing strategies, market making, Cost, PnL and net revenue calculation. Every trade a client places creates exposure, and this team decides what we hold, what we hedge, where we hedge it, and what it costs us.
You will own significant parts of the Risk Management Engine and Smart Hedging end-to-end — design, build, ship, and operate. This is a hands-on senior IC role with high ownership and accountability - the routing and exposure logic you write today shows up in tomorrow's net revenue.
We're specifically looking for someone with a trading background — you've built systems where a position had to be accurate and a hedge had to fire in time, and where a bug meant real money. Think a crypto exchange, brokerage, or trading platform (CoinDCX, Groww, CoinSwitch Kuber, or similar).
Experience with hedging, exposure or risk management systems specifically.
Experience with multi-venue execution, smart order routing, or market making.
Experience with PnL, cost-basis or position-keeping logic, and reconciliation against external venues.
Experience with FX, multi-currency systems, or cross-border payments.
Experience with market data, order books, or market microstructure.
The services you own on the risk path are reliable, well-tested, and observable — exposure is accurate, hedges fire as intended, and issues are caught before they cost us money.
You ship complex features end-to-end from technical design to execution, delivery and adoption.
The team moves faster because of your code reviews, documentation, and technical judgment.
L1/L2 engineers around you grow measurably faster.
You become a go-to engineer for the risk path.
You raise the bar for the Hedging team.
Competitive salary and benefits package.
Equity in a rapidly growing company.
Opportunity to work in a fast-paced startup at the forefront of fintech innovation.
Opportunity to make a significant impact on global financial infrastructure.
Collaborative work culture with emphasis on personal and professional growth.
We are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or veteran status.
