About the role
Unlok is seeking a strong backend/quant engineer to build the prediction-market infrastructure from the ground up in New York. You’ll integrate third-party market APIs, build our own APIs and data pipelines, and develop the systems behind real-time P&L, portfolio analytics, pricing, exposure, and risk.
You will collaborate with product and quantitative teams, applying rigorous engineering to trading infrastructure and turning zero ideas into scalable solutions in a fast-paced fintech environment.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
