We’re hiring a Tech Lead for our Hedging team — the team that owns the risk OpenFX carries.
Hedging owns inventory and exposure management, risk management, hedging positions across venues through smart routing strategies, market making, Cost, PnL and net revenue calculation. Every trade a client places creates exposure, and this team decides what we hold, what we hedge, where we hedge it, and what it costs us.
This is a hands-on technical leadership role, not a management role. You will not own headcount, performance reviews, or hiring decisions. What you own is the technical direction, quality bar, and execution coherence of the Hedging team’s work — the Risk Management Engine, Smart Hedging, and the position and PnL layer underneath them. You and the Engineering Manager operate as a closely coordinated pair: the EM owns the people, the process, and the delivery plan; you own how the work is designed, how quality is held, and how technical decisions get made day to day.
You should expect to write code. The strongest Team Leads here lead through design, review and judgment, but their credibility comes from building.
We’re specifically looking for someone with a trading background — you’ve led or built systems where a position had to be accurate and a hedge had to fire in time, and where a bug meant real money. Think a crypto exchange, brokerage, or trading platform (CoinDCX, Groww, CoinSwitch Kuber, or similar).
