Engineering Lead - FX Options Platform London Liverpool Street, EC2M 4TP

Engineering Lead - FX Options Platform ABOUT THE ROLE

We're looking for an Engineering Lead to own the technical execution of our FX Options Platform - a fast moving, AI native trading system where frontend, middleware, and intelligent agents all converge. This is a hands on leadership role: you'll be writing production code, shaping architecture, and setting the bar for how we build AI powered financial products at Rocketfin.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Lead engineering execution end to end - from scoping and architecture through to shipping production grade systems at pace.
• Build AI native product experiences - designing UX and systems that put Claude and LLMs at the core, not the periphery.
• Architect middleware and orchestration layers - the connective tissue that links frontend, AI systems, and financial data flows.
• Work hands on with agents and AI workflows - building, iterating, and owning agentic systems in production.
• Move fast and ship high quality systems - balancing speed with craft in a trading environment where reliability and precision matter.

CORE STACK

(No specific stack details provided.)

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

You're genuinely AI forward - not just someone who uses LLMs as a feature, but someone who thinks in agent workflows, orchestration patterns, and AI native UX. You operate comfortably across the full stack and take pride in systems that are both fast and well crafted. You've led engineers (or are ready to), and you bring clarity and momentum to a team.

NICE TO HAVE

• Agentic systems - experience building and running agents in production.
• MCP ecosystems - familiarity with Model Context Protocol tooling.
• Frontend design systems - component libraries and design systems at scale.
• Financial products / trading / FX - options, FX, or trading platform experience.
