Job description

Rust Developer Intern - Trading Systems
Company: Blockhouse
Location: NYC (in-person) or remote flexibility
Type: Internship, ~12 weeks, starting immediately or early summer. Strong path to full-time for top performers
Compensation: $2,000-$4,000/month cash, based on experience. Benefits included. Equity and strategy PnL share available on conversion to full-time.
About Blockhouse's Product
Our core market-making engine is written in Rust and is already running across multiple venues. We're actively extending it by adding new exchanges, tightening execution, and building out the operational layer around it (trader dashboard, GCP infrastructure, observability). We're small, engineering-driven, and every hire works directly with the founders, Head of Trading, and senior quants.
Role Overview
You'll work directly on our Rust trading engine alongside the Head of Trading. The work spans low-latency systems (optimizing the core engine, integrating new venues, improving execution logic) and the production infrastructure around it (trader dashboard frontend/backend, GCP services). This is not a sandboxed research role. Your code ships to production and trades live capital.
What You'll Do
  • Optimize and extend our existing Rust market-making engine
  • Integrate new CEX and DEX venues: REST, WebSocket, order lifecycle, market data normalization
  • Build and improve the internal trader dashboard (frontend + backend integrations)
  • Hook services into our GCP infrastructure: deployment, observability, data pipelines
  • Debug live systems against real trading logs and production behavior
  • Collaborate with quants to translate strategy logic into production code

Requirements (Must-Haves)
  • Solid Rust experience - you've built something non-trivial, not just followed a tutorial
  • Comfortable in Linux/UNIX environments
  • Strong grasp of concurrency, async, and performance tradeoffs
  • Clean, well-tested code, fluent with standard debugging workflows

Nice-to-Haves
  • Crypto exchange API experience (CEX or DEX integrations)
  • Frontend/backend work (TypeScript, React, or similar)
  • GCP or other cloud infrastructure exposure
  • Experience with market data, order books, or execution systems
  • Python for tooling, testing, or research integration
  • Networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, latency sensitivity)

Why Join Blockhouse
  • Small team - direct work with founders, Head of Trading, and senior engineers
  • Your code runs in production and trades real capital
  • Exposure to both systems and strategy sides of crypto market making
  • Clear, meritocratic path to a full-time offer

International Students: CPT/OPT supported; flexible arrangements available.
