Amongst our subsidiaries, Alpaca is a licensed financial services company, serving hundreds of financial institutions across 40 countries with our institutional-grade APIs. This includes broker-dealers, investment advisors, wealth managers, hedge funds, and crypto exchanges, totalling over 9 million brokerage accounts.

Our global team is a diverse group of experienced engineers, traders, and brokerage professionals who are working to achieve our mission of opening financial services to everyone on the planet. We're deeply committed to open-source contributions and fostering a vibrant community, continuously enhancing our award-winning, developer-friendly API and the robust infrastructure behind it.

Alpaca is proudly backed by top-tier global investors, including Portage Ventures, Spark Capital, Tribe Capital, Social Leverage, Horizons Ventures, Unbound, SBI Group, Derayah Financial, Elefund, and Y Combinator.

Our Team Members:

Troubleshooting on incidents and reported bugs
You may be asked to be on-call to assist with engineering projects that are timely in nature

SQL or relational database skills
Familiarity with TCP/IP, and UDP networking
Proficient with Linux/BSD, and shell scripting
Excited about what we are building at Alpaca
Proven track record of architecting and leading medium-scale projects involving multiple teams
Experience with Kubernetes or other workload orchestration and scheduling systems (we primarily use Kubernetes via GKE)
Experience with major cloud platforms (we primarily use GCP)
A passion for financial markets

Who You Might Be (Nice-to-Haves):

Knowledge of microservice architectures
Knowledge of clean code principles
DevOps mindset is an asset
Cloud Networking experience (BGP, VPC peering)
Experience in building low-latency applications
Experience with distributed key-value stores
Experience with CI/CD
A passion for financial markets or the desire to learn
Knowledge of Agile/Scrum methodologies
Experience with observability, tracing, continuous profiling
Experience with capacity planning and benchmarking
Knowledge of eBPF

How We Take Care of You:

Competitive Salary & Stock Options
