Who you are:

  • 2-3 years of professional experience as a Developer
  • 2 years of React experience in complex projects

  • Located in the West Loop, Chicago's growing center of tech, great cuisine, and high-end bars

 

Our Company:

The tastytrade family of companies (tastytrade, tastyworks, dough, quiet foundation, and The Small Exchange) empowers individual investors by providing educational media, intuitive and powerful trading software, high-speed order execution, innovative derivatives products, and portfolio guidance. The diversity of our offerings and the technology that powers them provide our engineers with exposure to a broad set of tools and the opportunity to dig deep into specific problems. We are an ideal environment for those who are self-motivated, engineering-focused, pragmatic, and who truly enjoy creating and operating large, highly available, and performant systems. Our team is lean at roughly 40 members and we follow a management philosophy that values the autonomy of our engineers.

An Insider's view of IGNA | tasty

What’s the vibe like in the office?

We’re in a fast-paced industry, but no matter how busy people get, no one’s ever too busy to help a colleague out. We’re surrounded by smart, driven people and the collaboration amongst the teams is the reason why we are constantly growing. Plus, there’s free food and puppies to get you through the day!

Project Manager

How does the company support your career growth?

Because we're on a relatively small team, I feel I'm able to make more of an impact. I often see features I've worked on reflected on the platform in real time: Something that's incredibly satisfying. And best of all, I get to learn from ridiculously talented senior engineers who have become not only mentors, but also close friends.

Div

Senior Software Developer

How does your team reward individual success?

I've been privileged to be involved with tastytrade since its launch and I'm constantly amazed at our growth and what we continue to accomplish as a group. New ideas are encouraged which keeps everything fresh and exciting on a daily basis, which I think is extremely rare in the financial industry.
