The Solana Foundation is a non-profit based in Zug, Switzerland, dedicated to the adoption, decentralization, and security of the Solana network. Solana is a high performance blockchain that can deliver a fast and friendly user experience, without sacrificing security. The Solana Foundation is working to realize a world where individuals own their data, use permissionless networks, and transfer information and value freely around the world. We are looking for talented people who are willing to jump right in and use their expertise to help the ecosystem build.
The Solana Foundation Trading team is a newly formed group focused on onboarding professional traders from other crypto ecosystems and traditional finance onto Solana. We are building the APIs, infrastructure and relationships that make Solana the best venue for trading. We’re building real-time data feeds, optimized execution pipelines, liquidity programs and hands-on integration support to make it as easy as possible for traders to run their strategies. We sit at the intersection of deep protocol infrastructure and trader-facing product work, making the complexity of Solana accessible to teams accustomed to centralized exchange venues.
Solana Foundation is seeking a Trading Engineer to join our Trading team. The ideal candidate combines strong technical depth in Solana's transaction lifecycle with the communication skills and initiative to work directly with traders, market makers and HFT firms. You will help build and support the APIs, data infrastructure and onboarding processes that bring professional trading volume to Solana. You'll be joining a small, high-impact team expected to grow significantly in both size and scope.
