Provable is modernizing decades old infrastructure in the traditional capital markets by bringing together the brightest minds in engineering and finance. Our two teams, based in Amsterdam and New York, work hand in hand to build, enhance, and operate an SEC Registered Alternative Trading System (ATS) for the $8TN+ Securities Finance Market that underpins the global financial system.
Our cloud-native platform has been built entirely in house from scratch to enhance and replace old technology stacks composed of disparate, costly, and inefficient systems. We work closely with the largest clearing house in the world, the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (the DTCC), and some of the most prominent financial institutions across the globe. Our mission is to correct a long broken market structure by providing a neutral, value driven, full scope offering to market participants with varying needs and requirements. Our pragmatic approach to engineering is at the heart of what we do, and we maintain the highest standards of integrity, quality of work, and transparency in all that we do. We are a small, but growing team looking for hard working, prideful, and kind individuals to help us drive our mission forward.
Behind all of this sits novel technology backed by research in the field of cryptography - and it’s not blockchain! Our long term vision is that with a foundation built on core infrastructure, and a reputation built on trust, we can shepherd solutions to some of the financial worlds’ largest problems through our expertise in Secure Multi-Party Computation (MPC). But first, we need to succeed on the enormous opportunity in front of us in Securities Finance...
We are seeking experienced Developer Operations Engineers to assist our existing team in expanding the quality, reliability, and performance of our platform. Our system architecture contains multiple components to serve the needs of a highly complex and complicated sector of the capital markets. Securities Lending workflows that are managed by our system rely on a combination of pre-trade, trade matching, ongoing life cycle management, reporting, and multiple layers and endpoints of connectivity. We have built a robust UI that sits atop all of this, along with an API layer used for direct server to server integration. You will work closely with our entire engineering and business teams, pushing forward internal and external infrastructure needs. To achieve this, you are someone passionate about delivering a high quality experience to customers, and anticipating demands of a rapidly scaling and highly complex ecosystem.
Most of our engineering team is located in Amsterdam, but we’re looking to hire a Devops team to operate from our New York based office to bridge the gap between the 2 time zones and teams, working closely with both the engineering team and the business / ops team.
