Software Engineer - Solana

Propr Limited; Dubai; Vor Ort; AED 441.000 - 661.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

Prop Firm in Dubai seeks a seasoned Solana developer to architect and implement on-chain programs in Rust using Anchor, delivering high‑throughput trading systems.

You will integrate with Jupiter, Drift, Meteora, and Raydium, and build real-time feeds with sub‑100ms latency while ensuring robust testing and security across devnet/mainnet RPCs.

Qualifikationen

• 3+ years of software engineering experience, with 1+ years building on Solana.
• Production experience writing Solana programs in Rust using the Anchor framework.
• Deep understanding of Solana architecture: accounts, PDAs, CPIs, compute units, rent.
• Hands-on experience with Solana tooling: solana-cli, anchor-cli, web3.js or @solana/web3.js.
• Experience integrating with major Solana protocols (Jupiter, Drift, Phoenix, Meteora, etc.).
• Proficiency with TypeScript/Node.js for building off-chain services and WebSocket clients.

Aufgaben

• Design and build Solana programs (smart contracts) in Rust using Anchor framework.
• Integrate with Solana DeFi protocols: Jupiter (AMM/aggregator), Drift (perpetuals), Meteora, Raydium.
• Implement real-time WebSocket feeds for Solana accounts, transactions, and program logs.
• Build automated trading strategies executing on Solana with sub-100ms latency.
• Develop on-chain risk management: position limits, liquidation triggers, PDA-based account validation.
• Write comprehensive integration tests against devnet/mainnet RPC nodes.
• Optimize transaction construction: compute unit limits, priority fees, account pre-fetching.
• Design secure PDA (Program Derived Address) schemas and CPI (Cross-Program Invocation) patterns.

Jobbeschreibung

We hire on a contractor basis or via EOR (Employer of Record), or local employment in Dubai. We offer relocation.

Propr is building a new Operating System for prop firms, helping them leverage blockchain technology to make them more efficient. We enable prop firms to leverage perpetual futures on Hyperliquid, prediction markets, and spot assets on Solana. We are actively deploying our technologies to the largest prop firms in the world. The pace is intense, but the journey is exciting. We only hire A-players. You need to be exceptional.

We believe in radical transparency. Check out our transparency page to see how we operate.
