We are looking for a Senior TypeScript Engineer with strong Kubernetes experience to join our Engineering team at Valstro. Our goal is to build scalable, cost-efficient, and maintainable services using modern software development practices.
Valstro is an ambitious FinTech partnership on a mission to redefine trading technology for global, multi-asset class institutional clients. We are a people-first company.
We're not just building software—we're engineering highly modular, well-tested, well-documented, and easily discoverable applications.
At Valstro, we're here to shake up an industry that's long overdue for tech-driven disruption. As we expand our capabilities and reach, we aim to push the boundaries of what's possible.

- Participating in architecture discussions, technology selection, and design to deliver high-quality software.
- Building, testing, deploying, and maintaining stable, resilient and performant software.
- Collaborating across teams to refine processes, improve tools, and deliver impactful solutions.
- Continuously improving your skills, staying up to date with the latest technologies, and actively sharing knowledge and best practices with the team.
Requirements
- Extensive experience building enterprise-level software with TypeScript.
- Hands-on expertise in Kubernetes and containerized microservices architectures.
- A deep understanding of cloud-native development, CI/CD pipelines, and distributed systems.
- Passion for delivering high-quality, performant software in a collaborative team environment.
What You Need To Bring
- Real-world experience developing production systems in TypeScript.
- Expertise in CI/CD pipelines, with hands-on experience using GitHub Actions/Workflows and other industry-standard tools.
- Experience building multi-threaded/concurrent applications.
- Experience working in a Linux environment.
- Hands-on experience with containerized environments, particularly Docker and Kubernetes.
- Practical use of SQL databases.
- Experience working with messaging queues.
- Bonus: Experience with Nx for monorepo management.
- Bonus: Experience developing systems for Equity Trading in Capital Markets.
Benefits
Valstro offers an excellent benefits package, including pension plans, flexible time off and highly competitive compensation. Our leadership team brings a wealth of experience and deep industry knowledge.
We are a distributed team, with staff in the UK, the NYC area, and across the US. While remote work remains a core part of our culture, NYC-based employees are expected to take advantage of the Midtown office space and collaborate in person on a regular basis.
