Job description

Experienced Rust Engineer - Trading Systems
Company: Blockhouse
Location: Remote (US time zones required); NYC in-person or hybrid preferred
Type: Full-time
Compensation: $110,000-$160,000 base, commensurate with experience. Equity grant and strategy PnL share included. Full benefits.
About Blockhouse
Blockhouse is a systematic crypto trading firm operating two live production strategies across centralized and decentralized perpetual venues, trading client capital. The firm was founded in 2022.
Our core market-making engine is built in Rust and is deployed in production across multiple venues. We are actively extending the platform - integrating additional exchanges, refining execution, and developing the surrounding operational infrastructure, including our trader dashboard, GCP environment, and observability systems. Blockhouse is a small, engineering-driven team, and engineers work directly with the founders and Head of Trading.
Role Overview
This is a senior individual contributor position on our trading systems team, reporting into the Head of Trading. The role is focused on extending our production Rust engine: writing production code daily, owning meaningful components of the system end-to-end, and raising the technical standard of the team through code review, design input, and mentorship of junior engineers.
We are not looking to rebuild the platform. Our system is operational and trades real capital today. The successful candidate will demonstrate the ability to navigate an existing codebase, identify high-impact improvements, deliver them to production incrementally, and improve the reliability and extensibility of the platform over time.
Responsibilities
  • Extend and optimize the Rust trading engine, with emphasis on performance, reliability, and extensibility
  • Integrate new centralized and decentralized venues and harden existing integrations
  • Contribute to the ongoing GCP migration, including observability, deployment, and data infrastructure
  • Partner with the Head of Trading and quantitative researchers to translate strategy requirements into production systems
  • Uphold and improve engineering standards through code review, design feedback, and mentorship
  • Help establish and maintain team practices around testing, CI, and on-call operations

Required Qualifications
  • 2-5 years of production Rust experience, or equivalent production experience in a comparable systems language (C++, Go) with demonstrated Rust proficiency
  • Proven track record of delivering low-latency or performance-sensitive systems in production
  • Strong command of concurrency, asynchronous programming, networking, and performance trade-offs
  • Proficiency in Linux/UNIX environments and standard debugging and profiling tooling
  • Demonstrated pragmatism: a preference for incremental improvement over rewrites, and sound judgment on where to invest engineering effort

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience integrating with centralized or decentralized crypto exchange APIs
  • Background in market making, execution systems, or high-frequency trading infrastructure
  • Working experience with Google Cloud Platform
  • Familiarity with internal tooling development (TypeScript, React) for trader- or operator-facing interfaces
  • Python proficiency for tooling, testing, or research integration
  • Prior experience mentoring or informally leading engineers

Why Join Blockhouse
  • Substantive ownership of a production trading system with direct impact on firm PnL
  • Close working relationship with the founding team, Head of Trading, and quantitative staff
  • Meaningful equity participation and strategy PnL share
  • Live trading environment with real capital at stake and a high engineering bar
