The hiring manager is flexible on experience. Ideally, you will have React Front End experience, but this could be substituted by Angular or Vue. Similarly, if you have Java but no Golang and GCP but not AWS, we could still proceed. You could also have Go experience but no Java.

You need experience building trading systems but it does not matter what the asset class is. If you have experience with execution management or order management systems, that would be ideal but is not essential.
