Through Onyx Commodities, the Flux Terminal, and our trading division Axis, we dominate the benchmarks that matter — Dated Brent, S2F contracts, and beyond. We are not a bank. We are not a hedge fund. We are a technology-driven market-making powerhouse at the intersection of global energy markets, data, and engineering — and we are growing fast.Engineering at OnyxWe don’t hire passengers — we hire pilots. Every engineer here takes ownership, pushes back when the design isn’t right, and holds the bar high without being asked. We practise TDD, design for observability from day one, and treat software craftsmanship as a genuine competitive advantage. The team is small, senior, and embedded directly in the trading floor. There are no layers of abstraction between you and the business — your work has immediate, measurable impact from day one.The OpportunityWe are building our Sri Lanka engineering hub and looking for two Senior Software Engineers to be founding members of that team. Working alongside our global engineering organisation, you will take full ownership of features end-to-end — from design through delivery and into production. Your work will power live trading infrastructure used by some of the world’s most demanding market participants.5–10+ years in a software engineering role; track record of delivering production-quality features independentlyProficiency in at least one of Python, React.js, or C# — with the drive and ability to pick up others as the role demandsSolid OOP fundamentals — encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, and design patterns applied in real-world systemsTest-Driven Development discipline: unit, integration, and E2E tests written as a standard part of the development loop, not an afterthoughtAutomation mindset — demonstrated experience identifying and eliminating manual processes through tooling, scripts, and pipelinesREST API experience — designing, building, and consuming APIs with a clear understanding of authentication, versioning, and error handlingSource control and CI/CD: GitHub, Azure DevOps, or GitLab; branching strategies, PR workflows, and pipeline contributionExperience working in cloud-hosted environments — Azure preferredStrong sense of personal ownership — takes a feature from ticket to production without hand-holding, and treats issues in systems they’ve built as their own to resolveComfortable engaging directly with remote end users and business stakeholders to understand requirements, debug issues, and communicate progress clearly — without needing a middlemanHighly self-motivated with a bias for action — raises problems early, proposes solutions, and follows through to completionStrong written and spoken English — clear and confident in both written and verbal communication across synchronous and asynchronous settingsExperience working with globally distributed teams is strongly welcomed; comfortable collaborating with colleagues in different time zones and culturesNice to HaveFull-stack capability across front-end and back-endExposure to containerised environments (Docker / Kubernetes)Experience with agile delivery practices (sprint planning, retrospectives, stand-ups)Prior experience in financial services or fintech, or a genuine interest in financial technology and capital markets — not required, but candidates who are curious about the domain tend to thrive hereFamiliarity with GraphQL or message-based architecturesExperience supporting remote internal users or acting as a technical point of contact for distributed teams — fielding queries, triaging issues, and communicating resolutions clearlyWhat We’re Looking ForYou write clean, well-tested code and take pride in it. You don’t wait to be told what needs improving — you spot it, raise it, and fix it. You communicate proactively, work autonomously across time zones, and hold yourself to a standard that makes the people around you better.
