BitMEX | Data | CA (BC) / SG / Remote (VISA)

USD 1 trillion turnover a year; ~100TB of relational internal data now, PB-scale external sources later; Redshift, PostgreSQL, Tableau, kdb+, legacy Python but open to Haskell/Mercury/Idris on Nix, Rust, Zio, Kotlin, OCaml for new projects.

Spend the morning supporting users then handover to the next time zone. Afternoon is for undisturbed R&D, where I expect most of your (replicable) experiments to fail. Ongoing experiments include alpha capture systems, generating implied vol history or 20x lossless compression through normalisation.

Mid-level and junior IC roles. Work entirely remotely, subject to regulatory considerations. We can relocate you to Vancouver or Singapore. Time zone +00 to +02 UTC is a plus, as is experience programming smart contracts or trading in DeFi.

Process: “CAPTCHA” filter question > ~1-4h take home to test skills meet baseline > 2-4 calls with end users and team (no whiteboard) > offer > background check/visa.
