Job description

At Midas, we tackle real-world engineering challenges to reshape the future of finance. Our mission is to build the fastest and most reliable products, delivering a seamless experience that empowers everyone to manage their money effortlessly.   More than 4 million users use our product.   Backed by an $80M Series B, the largest fintech investment ever in Turkey, we are scaling faster than ever.   Read Before You Apply 🚨   This role is not for everyone. We are looking for outlier engineers who:   Have owned products end-to-end, from idea to production monitoring. Have managed live incidents, written post-mortems, and implemented long-term fixes. Passionate about delivering exceptional product experiences and maximizing user impact, beyond just writing code.   Years of experience don’t matter β€” what matters is the depth of ownership, incident handling, and product impact you’ve delivered.   If this doesn’t sound like you, no worries β€” Midas has other opportunities that may be a better fit.   
What You’ll Do
  • Design, build, and optimize automated execution and hedging systems operating across crypto exchanges and liquidity venues.

  • Develop execution algorithms, netting mechanisms, and dynamic hedging strategies to efficiently manage trade flow and market exposure.

  • Build systems to manage, rebalance, and risk-manage inventory positions resulting from trading and execution activity.

  • Own the full lifecycle: from quantitative research, backtesting, and simulation to implementation, deployment, monitoring, and live performance tuning.

  • Analyze market microstructure, order book dynamics, execution quality, slippage, and trading performance to identify opportunities and continuously improve strategies.

  • Build high-throughput, low-latency trading systems using Go for core execution services and Python for research, analysis, and strategy development.

  • Make pragmatic architectural and quantitative decisions, balancing execution quality, latency, risk, reliability, and trading costs.

  • Continuously improve live trading systems with a focus on performance, observability, resiliency, and operational excellence.


  • What We’re Looking For
  • Strong fundamentals in computer science, algorithms, data structures, and quantitative problem solving.

  • Hands-on experience building quantitative trading, algorithmic trading, execution, or HFT systems.

  • Strong understanding of market microstructure, order books, execution, slippage, and liquidity.

  • Experience with execution algorithms, netting, dynamic or delta hedging, and inventory management.

  • Deep understanding of crypto market structure and exchange mechanics, including REST/WebSocket APIs and real-time market data.

  • Strong experience with Go (Golang) for concurrent, high-throughput, performance-sensitive systems.

  • Proficiency in Python for research, data analysis, backtesting, simulation, and strategy prototyping.

  • Ability to go beyond implementation: challenge assumptions, translate market behavior into quantitative hypotheses, and continuously improve execution and hedging strategies.

  • Experience building and operating resilient, production-grade systems in 24/7 real-time markets.

  • Familiarity with distributed systems, event-driven architectures, queueing systems, and modern cloud environments is a strong plus.

  • A mindset of ownership and accountability β€” you care about execution quality, risk, and live trading performance, not just the code.


  • How We Work
  • Full ownership β€” you don’t wait, you solve.
  • First principles mindset β€” you question assumptions and rebuild where needed.
  • Balance speed & quality β€” you ship fast, but always clean.
  • Product mindset β€” you care about the user impact, not just the code.
  • Calm under pressure β€” incidents happen; you lead with clarity and composure.
  • We don’t measure success by how many features you ship β€” but by the impact your work has on millions of users. If you thrive in high-stakes environments, love solving real problems, and own your work end-to-end, we want to meet you.
