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 frontend-heavy Full Stack Engineer for our Trading team — the team that owns the client's entire trade experience.
Trading owns quote generation, pricing strategy, the spread engine, and the trade lifecycle across GUI, API, and soon conversational AI. Our north star is Total Payment Volume, with Gross Revenue as the control metric.
You will own the client-facing surface of that experience. This is where an institutional client sees a live quote, understands the price and fees, commits to a trade, and tracks it through to settlement. You will own architecture for these flows — state management, data fetching, error handling, and performance — and be trusted with the correctness of what the client sees.
You will also work across the stack. You'll build and extend the APIs your surfaces depend on, model the data behind them, and ship the backend piece of a feature rather than waiting on someone else to unblock you. You don't need deep backend systems experience for this role, but you do need to be genuinely comfortable there.
We're specifically looking for someone with a trading background. Think a crypto exchange, brokerage, or trading platform (CoinDCX, Groww, CoinSwitch Kuber, or similar).
Experience building real-time financial surfaces — live pricing, order books, or streaming quote updates.
Experience with complex financial dashboards, reconciliation views, or transaction history at scale.
Experience with FX, multi-currency systems, or cross-border payments.
Experience with frontend testing, observability and monitoring tooling.
Experience building a design system or shared component library that other engineers actually used.
The client trade surfaces you own always reflect accurate pricing and trade state — including during retries, partial failures, and backend delays.
Critical flows are fast and stable under peak usage, and frontend incidents are rare, easy to debug, and quickly resolved.
You ship complex features end-to-end from technical design to execution, delivery and adoption — including the backend they need.
Product and Design rely on your judgment for client-facing decisions on the trade path.
L1/L2 engineers around you grow measurably faster.
You raise the bar for frontend engineering in the Trading 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.
