Proof of work

The team

Kraken is seeking a Treasury Capital Product Engineer to architect and build the firm’s interactive Capital Management Product — a web-based, real-time system for visualizing and managing liquidity, capital, and funding risk.

This is a hybrid engineering and product-design role that converts complex Treasury analytics into clear, usable tools for senior management.

Working closely with quantitative risk managers and data teams, you will design REST APIs, data schemas, and user interfaces that transform internal data into scenario inputs and risk outputs, enabling transparent, data-driven decision-making.

Your work will ensure that liquidity and capital analytics are not hidden in spreadsheets or models — but surfaced as live, interactive insights.

The opportunity

• Lead design and development of Kraken’s web-based Capital Management Product — including UI/UX, backend, and API architecture

• Develop RESTful APIs and data connectors to integrate internal and external data sources (banking, wallet, exchange, and market feeds) into the Treasury risk environment

• Translate quantitative models into scalable, interactive web applications, allowing users to view, test, and act on liquidity and capital stress scenarios in real time

• Implement front-end interfaces using Django and React, with visualizations for liquidity ladders, funding gaps, and capital utilization metrics

• Design and automate daily and intraday data workflows, ensuring timely updates, data validation, and exception alerting

• Collaborate with Quantitative Risk Managers to integrate simulation outputs into usable business dashboards

• Optimize for performance, security, and scalability across multiple data environments, balancing speed and reliability

• Maintain documentation, testing, and Treasury data pipelines to ensure robust production deployment

• Add interactive data visualization and risk management alerting features using intraday data sets to help better risk manage the firm

Skills you should HODL

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field

• 5–8 years of experience as a Full-Stack Engineer, Risk Systems Developer, or Treasury Platform Engineer in a financial or crypto-native organization

• Strong proficiency in Python, Django, React, SQL, REST API design, and cloud deployment (AWS or GCP)

• Experience working with time-series or financial data, integrating data from multiple heterogeneous systems

• Familiarity with risk or treasury risk analytics — able to translate quantitative model requirements into data pipelines and user interfaces

• Strong sense of ownership, product design intuition, and attention to UX for non-technical stakeholders
