We simplify wealth creation. Founded in 2014 in Vienna, Austria by Eric Demuth, Paul Klanschek and Christian Trummer, we’re here to help people trust themselves enough to build their financial freedom — for now and the future.

So if you’re someone who thinks big, moves fast and wants to make an impact right from day one, then get ready to join our industry-changing team. Let’s go!

Your mission

As a software engineer within Bitpanda’s Trade Hub, you will help design, build and scale the core systems that power our trading ecosystem end-to-end — from pricing, execution and portfolio lifecycle, to asset infrastructure, hedging and prime services. You will work on highly available, low-latency and financially critical back-end services that handle order flow, market data, risk, balances, assets and exposure management at scale. Your work will directly impact how customers trade, how liquidity is managed, how portfolios are valued, and how Bitpanda operates safely and efficiently across markets. You will collaborate closely with product, quantitative, risk and trading stakeholders to deliver resilient, high-performance systems that form the backbone of our trading platform.

As a bonus, you get work on new age tech projects, tackling architectural and conceptual challenges, integrating with 3rd party vendors and interface and collaborate with many other Engineers and teams within Bitpanda.

What you’ll do

Design and develop scalable, resilient, message-driven services using Java
Write clean and future proof code with 80% unit test test coverage, end to end and integration testing before deploying into event driven microservices architecture
Optimise payment modules/services to ensure reliability, maintainability, performance and scalability using tools like
Drive innovation by researching and adopting the latest trends and technologies in backend development, ensuring our applications remain cutting-edge.

Who you are

Knowledge and experience of software development using modern frameworks such as Spring Boot, with Java as your main programming language
Understanding of relational and non-relational databases (bonus points for experience with Postgres and MongoDB)
Experience creating and maintaining publicly available REST APIs with a keen understanding of performance optimisation and scalability
Practical knowledge in using message-oriented middleware as we’re working with event driven microservices (ideally Apache Kafka or ZeroMQ)
Understanding of CI/CD: familiarity with AWS and Kubernetes is ideal but any public cloud experience is fine

**We offer a comprehensive relocation package to support candidates who are moving to join our team. Our goal is to make your transition as smooth as possible, and we provide assistance throughout the whole process.

What’s in it for you

Flexibility to work where you thrive – Enjoy the freedom of our Hybrid working model, combining onsite collaboration and remote work, with an additional 25 days per year to work from a city or country of your choice.
