About this role

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.

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 — what matters is the depth of ownership, incident handling, and product impact you’ve delivered.

If this doesn’t sound like you, no worries — Midas has other opportunities that may be a better fit.
What You’ll Do

• Build high performance, low latency, scalable web application for real-time trading and financial data.

• Investigate and solve complex engineering problems across the frontend, APIs, and real-time data flows.

• Contribute to technical decisions and continuously improve the performance, reliability, and maintainability of the platform.

• Collaborate closely with product, design, backend, and other engineering teams to build and evolve Atlas.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong fundamentals and a solid understanding of the challenges involved in building reliable, performant web applications.

• Good problem solving and debugging skills, with a willingness to dig into unfamiliar or complex problems.

• A willingness to take ownership, learn quickly, and grow with the product and the team.

• An interest in how engineering decisions affect performance, reliability, and user experience.

• Strong communication and collaboration skills.

Nice to have

• Up to 5 years of professional software engineering experience.

• Experience building applications with React, Next.js, Redux, REST or GraphQL.

• Experience with real-time systems and high frequency data updates using technologies such as WebSockets or SSE.

• Familiarity with financial systems, trading platforms, or market data.

• Experience with browser performance profiling and optimization.

How We Work

•
Full ownership — you don’t wait, you solve.

•
First principles mindset — you question assumptions and rebuild where needed.

•
Balance speed & quality — you ship fast, but always clean.

•
Product mindset — you care about the user impact, not just the code.

•
Calm under pressure — incidents happen; you lead with clarity and composure.

We don’t measure success by how many features you ship — 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.
