Important: this role is only for university students.
We are looking for students from math/CS faculties with no full-time work experience, but with strong math skills and experience in math/algorithmic competitions (olympiads, ICPC, etc.).
About the Project
We are building a system to analyze the crypto market and find trading opportunities. We work with different blockchains and centralized exchanges. We already run successful HFT and MEV strategies and want to build many new ones.
The system needs very fast data processing and service-based architecture.

- Computer Science / Software Engineering
- Related technical field
- You do not have full-time work experience as a developer.
- You have strong math/algorithmic background:
- Math / informatics olympiads
- ICPC / Proggy-Buggy / other contests
- Strong course work in algorithms, probability, statistics, etc.
- You really like:
- Solving hard problems
- Thinking about algorithms
- Optimizing and analysing data
If you already work full-time as a software engineer, this role is not for you.
Tech Stack (What You Should Know at Basic Level)
- Linux

What We Expect from You - Basic understanding of blockchain and crypto fundamentals: how transactions and wallets work, what DEX/CEX are, and who market makers are (and why liquidity matters).
- You can read and understand technical English (docs, GitHub, articles).
- You can take a task, think about it, ask the right questions, and finish it.
- You are ready to:
- Work hard on real production tasks
- Learn fast from seniors and our CTO
- Take ownership for parts of the system over time
What You’ll Do
- Build and maintain services for high-speed data processing.
- Integrate with blockchain nodes and crypto exchange APIs.
- Improve reliability, performance, and monitoring of components.
- Propose and test ideas for new trading strategies together with the team.
What We Offer
- 6-weeks paid CTO-led internship with real trading systems.
