Senior Backend Developer (Rust) - AI Trading Platform

Format: full-time, remote/hybrid
Level: Senior
Core Stack: Rust, real-time processing, trading integrations

About the Project

Developing the backend of an AI trading platform: streaming data from Bloomberg, news analytics, market manipulation detection, integration with MT5 and a multi-broker environment, audit of trading events.

Tasks

• Develop high-load backend services in Rust for real-time market data processing.
• Implement data stream ingestion and normalization (tick/news/volume).
• Develop analytics services:
  • stop-hunt detection,
  • market regime detection,
  • correlation calculations,
  • trading setup scoring.
• Integrate the system with MT5 and broker environments (execution, statuses, risk events).
• Implement reliable logging and event auditing (hashes, immutable audit trail).
• Write testable code, cover critical sections with unit/integration/performance tests.
• Optimize performance and latency of critical components.

Requirements

• 5+ years of backend development, including solid commercial experience with Rust.
• Excellent knowledge of:
  • async Rust (tokio, async/await),
  • concurrency and multithreading,
  • performance profiling and optimization.
• Experience designing and developing APIs (REST/gRPC/WebSocket).
• Experience with message brokers/streaming (Kafka/NATS/RabbitMQ or similar).
• Experience with databases (PostgreSQL + time-series/columnar solutions - as a plus).
• Practice in building fault-tolerant services, observability (logs/metrics/traces).
• Understanding of the trading domain and market data handling (desirable).

Will be a plus

• Integrations with Bloomberg B-PIPE/MRN, MT5, Sierra Chart.
• Experience in HFT/low-latency or market data systems.
• Implementation of audit/forensic modules, cryptographic hash chains.
• Experience in financial/regulated systems.

We expect from the candidate

• Engineering independence and ownership.
• Attention to code quality and production stability.
• Ability to work in a product team with an architect, data/ML, and frontend developers.
