Floating Point Group is on a mission to bring institutional-grade services to the cryptocurrency markets. By abstracting away the complexity of interfacing with hundreds of different trading venues (each with their own idiosyncratic APIs) while simultaneously pooling liquidity from across these venues, FPG's services enable hedge funds, asset managers, and institutional investors to participate in these nascent markets with unprecedented confidence and efficiency. With 24-hour trading volume recently breaching a quarter of a trillion dollars, the need for robust trading infrastructure is more salient than ever.
We’re looking for seasoned engineers skilled in shipping products and driven by customer demands. You will be instrumental in building the front-facing user experience of our products, and working alongside the team to ensure that our architecture uses the best principles, and development follows best-practices.
Drive ambitious technical projects that immediately impact our customers.
Some upcoming projects:
Work with the talented, ambitious, and creative members of our engineering team.
You'll be collaborating with our highly-motivated (and insatiably curious) engineers who bring with them rigorous and diverse industry experience, while also enjoying full access to our advisors, whose prolific careers at some of the world’s premier tech organizations have cemented them as invaluable resources to FPG.
Learn and grow at a breakneck pace as our company rapidly scales.
As an early team member, you will have an incredible degree of autonomy, it's something we intentionally build into our workflow.

As our product and team continue to grow, your responsibilities will inevitably follow suit - the organization is expected to double in size in the next three months.
You love shipping products.
You understand how to build systems that enable fast product iteration. You’re comfortable weighing trade-offs between functionality, quality, and technical debt.
You live and breathe for Front-End cloud Architectures
You learned Django; React; Node; Ruby on Rails, ANgular, Asp.net, Vue, and Laravel when you were 5 and didn't stop there. You love building things for customers and when you hear web-app you immediately think you can build it in 4 hours.
You’ve designed and implemented complex distributed systems.
You have extensive experience with microservice architectures. You excel at assessing the strengths and limitations of various implementations. You have a keen intuition for seeing how a product requirement might necessitate a particular technology, an conversely, how a technology in our stack might constrain the functionality of our product.
You can recognize and advocate for technical excellence.
You strive to be a world-class engineer. You understand the discipline and craft of software development, you invest in learning and tooling, and you insist on technical excellence from yourself and your teammates.
Our Team: We are technologists and we are builders. We spent years of ours lives building some of the most frontier computer science systems. We've designed, built, and deployed distributed data capturing systems at AWS, natural language processing models at MIT, and data pipelines for cancer cell analysis. Many of us have founded businesses previously. We founded FPG with a single goal: to improve the digital asset financial ecosystem. But, more importantly, to enjoy every minute of building a company, creating a culture, and shipping a product. We are the FPG family, and we would love to meet you.
Our investors + advisors: We’ve raised funding from well-known financial groups, venture capitalists, and an incredible group of veteran angels including AngelList's Naval Ravikant and other founders of publicly traded companies.
