This company, backed by some of the world’s most renowned VCs, is on a mission to redefine liquidity provisioning in the digital asset space. Their proprietary high-frequency trading (HFT) technology, built with advanced machine learning and stochastic control, gives them an edge in both centralized and decentralized markets. Now, they’re scaling their technology across the full crypto infrastructure value chain, and they needyouto help make it happen.


The Role: Fullstack Engineer

In the first six months, you’ll be fully immersed, working side-by-side with traders and developers, delivering quick, high-impact solutions. This isn’t just about writing code, it’s about architecting and optimizing the very foundations of the company’s trading and infrastructure.


  • Build and connect– Develop internal tools, improve trading infrastructure, and create seamless integrations across trading, finance, and compliance.

  • Sit with the traders– Work directly with the Head of OTC Trading, a seasoned pro with a background in FX and traditional finance, who moves fast and provides direct feedback.
  • Shape the company’s future– In a team of just 15, everyone plays a pivotal role. Your contributions will be visible and impactful from day one.


What You Bring:

  • Must-have: Python (core backend; this isn’t a web dev role) & JavaScript
  • Big plus: AWS and Pulumi / GUI development experience
  • Good to have: Some C++ exposure
  • Education: A strong academic background in Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, or a related quantitative discipline.
  • Mindset matters: Entrepreneurial. Proactive. Ready to own problems and build solutions. This isn’t for someone who waits for direction, you’ll thrive if you take initiative and love a challenge.


Why Join?

  • Work with an elite team of builders and innovators in an ultra-fast-moving space.
  • Direct access to leadership, no red tape, just execution.
  • A once-in-a-career opportunity to shape a company’s trajectory in a high-growth industry.

How Many AI Tools Do You Need to Know to Get an AI Job?

If you are job hunting in AI right now it can feel like you are drowning in tools. Every week there is a new framework, a new “must-learn” platform or a new productivity app that everyone on LinkedIn seems to be using. The result is predictable: job seekers panic-learn a long list of tools without actually getting better at delivering outcomes. Here is the truth most hiring managers will quietly agree with. They do not hire you because you know 27 tools. They hire you because you can solve a problem, communicate trade-offs, ship something reliable and improve it with feedback. Tools matter, but only in service of outcomes. So how many AI tools do you actually need to know? For most AI job seekers: fewer than you think. You need a tight core toolkit plus a role-specific layer. Everything else is optional. This guide breaks it down clearly, gives you a simple framework to choose what to learn and shows you how to present your toolset on your CV, portfolio and interviews.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in AI Job Applications (UK Guide)

Hiring managers do not start by reading your CV line-by-line. They scan for signals. In AI roles especially, they are looking for proof that you can ship, learn fast, communicate clearly & work safely with data and systems. The best applications make those signals obvious in the first 10–20 seconds. This guide breaks down what hiring managers typically look for first in AI applications in the UK market, how to present it on your CV, LinkedIn & portfolio, and the most common reasons strong candidates get overlooked. Use it as a checklist to tighten your application before you click apply.

The Skills Gap in AI Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Artificial intelligence is no longer a future concept. It is already reshaping how businesses operate, how decisions are made, and how entire industries compete. From finance and healthcare to retail, manufacturing, defence, and climate science, AI is embedded in critical systems across the UK economy. Yet despite unprecedented demand for AI talent, employers continue to report severe recruitment challenges. Vacancies remain open for months. Salaries rise year on year. Candidates with impressive academic credentials often fail technical interviews. At the heart of this disconnect lies a growing and uncomfortable truth: Universities are not fully preparing graduates for real-world AI jobs. This article explores the AI skills gap in depth—what is missing from many university programmes, why the gap persists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build a successful career in artificial intelligence.
