Job Description

Our client is looking for a new team member to join them in a unique cross-functional role that touches every part of their organization. You’ll tackle a wide variety of challenges that directly impact their daily workflows—from automating repetitive tasks and implementing mathematical models to building powerful visualization tools for large datasets.

They're seeking a skilled programmer who’s fluent in Python, confident with Shell scripting, and comfortable setting up and managing databases. Beyond technical skills, they value enthusiasm, responsibility, independence, and experience—qualities we’re committed to bringing to the table as well.


What You’ll Be Working On

  • Engaging, high-impact work in the field of algorithmic trading

  • Development of libraries, frameworks, real-time monitoring tools, and advanced data analytics

  • Building in-house solutions to streamline and automate internal processes

  • Working with a modern stack: Python, Bash, databases, Docker (or Podman), distributed systems, and third-party tool integrations

  • A real opportunity to shape the direction of our development strategy

  • Collaborating with a talented and passionate team driven by a shared mission


What We Expect from You

  • Expert-level knowledge of Python, Bash, and Linux

  • Strong logical reasoning and problem-solving skills

  • Experience working across teams and managing broader technical agendas

  • A proactive and independent approach to work, with a high level of accountability

  • Willingness to tackle any technical challenge and jump in when needed

  • A technical university degree (may be waived with sufficient relevant experience)

  • Fluency in Czech and at least B2 level English


What We Offer

  • A dynamic and intellectually stimulating work environment

  • The chance to make a tangible impact on our projects and direction

  • Competitive base salary plus performance-based bonuses tied to your individual contributions
