DAML Blockchain Engineer : The Sports Market

The Sports Market is building the future of peer-to-peer sports trading, and we are doing it on real distributed ledger infrastructure, not buzzwords. Our exchange is powered by Digital Asset’s DAML and deployed on institutional-grade blockchain rails, which means every engineer on our team is contributing to one of the most advanced and consequential market platforms in the world.

We are looking for a software engineer who is excited by hard problems, fast cycles, and building a mission-critical system. If you thrive in a product-driven, startup-paced environment and want your work to directly shape how the next generation of sports liquidity is created, matched, and settled, this is the team you want to be on.

You will work across functional programming, distributed systems, and high-availability architectures to deliver secure, scalable components that power a financial-grade marketplace. This role is for someone who wants ownership, expects their code to be held to a high standard, and enjoys solving problems that do not come with a template.
