We’re building a new real-time trading platform for the proprietary trading (prop firm) industry: live challenge tracking on MetaTrader 5, a trader portal and an internal operations system. We’re a small, AI-first engineering team and we put security and correctness first.

What you’ll do
Build and own our MT5 integration service on the MT5 Manager API: account creation, group management, trading permissions, closing positions and balance operations.
Stream deals, position changes and account equity from MT5 into our backend in real time.
Build the risk engine that tracks live equity and enforces trading rules (daily loss, maximum drawdown, profit targets) within seconds.
Build reconciliation against MT5 trade history so no deal is ever missed or counted twice.
Work with the backend team (TypeScript, PostgreSQL) on account and payment flows.
Work as an AI-first engineer: use AI coding tools to move rapid, and review, test and take ownership of every line of AI-generated code before it ships.

What you’ll need
4+ years of backend development.
Hands-on experience with the MT5 Manager API (or the MT4 Manager API with some MT5 exposure) at a broker, prop firm or trading-technology company.
Strong C#/.NET (or C++) skills, and experience running services on Windows Server.




Experience with real-time systems: message queues and WebSockets.
Valuable SQL and PostgreSQL (or a similar database) skills.
An understanding of FX and CFD basics: margin, equity, drawdown, and hedging versus netting accounts.
Regular use of AI coding tools in your work, and the judgement to spot when AI-generated code is wrong or insecure.
A careful, security-minded approach and clear written English.

Nice to have
Experience building prop-firm challenge or risk systems.
TypeScript and Node.js.
The MT5 Web API or MT5 Server API (plugins).
AWS or Azure, Docker, CI/CD.

What we offer
Market-competitive salary, based on experience
Fully remote, with flexible hours and at least 4 hours a day overlapping Melbourne business hours (roughly 9:30 am to 1:30 pm IST)
Ownership of a core system from day one, in a small team where your work matters

How to apply

Apply with your CV and a short note about an MT5 Manager API project you worked on: what it did, how many accounts it handled, and what your role was.
Note: this role is broker-side MT5 Manager API development. It is not MQL5 Expert Advisor or indicator development.
