Software Engineer, Prediction Markets Platform

As a Software Engineer on the Prediction Markets Platform team at Crypto.com, you build and operate the backend that lists and settles event contracts on a CFTC-regulated exchange covering sports, crypto, and real-world events. You'll help migrate the platform from Python and Airflow to Go services built around Postgres, working on systems where correctness and auditability matter as much as speed since settlement moves real money.

What you'll do

• Build and run Go backend services that list and settle event contracts around the clock.
• Migrate existing workflows from Python and Airflow to Go services and durable job processing.
• Build data integrations with sports and market providers, handling retries, duplicates, and late data carefully.
• Implement settlement rules and edge cases, including corrections, cancellations, and voided markets, with thorough test coverage.
• Contribute to design docs and code reviews, and own features from design through production.
• Build operator tools using React and TypeScript for manual listing, settlement, and approvals.
• Take part in on-call rotations and help debug production issues end to end.

What you bring

• 3 to 5+ years building production backend services.
• Proficiency in Go, or strong experience in another backend language with a clear willingness to work primarily in Go.
• Hands-on Postgres experience, including schema design, writing efficient queries, transactions, and migrations.
• Understanding of concurrency, idempotency, and failure handling in distributed systems.
• A record of shipping and running services independently.
• Clear communication and an interest in growing into technical leadership.

Nice to have

• Experience with prediction markets, sportsbooks, exchanges, or sports data feeds.
• Experience with payments, ledgers, or other money-related systems.
• Redis, Kafka, or Postgres-backed job queues such as River.
• Python and Airflow.
• React and TypeScript.
• AWS, Kubernetes, Docker, and CI/CD.
• Startup experience.

What we offer

• Competitive salary.
• Attractive annual leave entitlement including birthday and work anniversary.
• 401(k) plan with employer match.
• Eligible for company-sponsored group health, dental, vision, and life/disability insurance.
• Flexible work hours and hybrid setup.
• Internal mobility program offering diverse career alternatives.
