Senior Rust Developer | Crypto | Hong Kong - relocation opportunity

Build a new crypto trading desk from the ground up.

I’m working with one of the largest global hedge funds in the world as they make a major push into digital assets and build out a new crypto trading business in Hong Kong.

They’re looking for a Senior Rust Developer to join the team at an early stage and help build the core technology powering the desk.

This is not a maintenance role.

You’ll be building greenfield, performance-critical trading systems in Rust, helping shape the architecture and technical foundations of a new institutional crypto platform backed by the infrastructure, capital and resources of a world-leading hedge fund.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

The focus is on engineers who have already worked deep within crypto — ideally at a leading exchange, market maker, proprietary trading firm or digital asset business — and understand the unique technical challenges of operating in always-on crypto markets.

What they’re looking for:

  • Strong production Rust
  • Genuine crypto / digital assets experience
  • Experience building performance-critical or distributed systems
  • Strong systems, networking and concurrency fundamentals
  • Engineers who want real ownership rather than simply joining an established platform
