**Company Introduction  
**Awaed is Saudi Arabia’s leading retail investment platform fintech. We're building the country's first investment super app — think Robinhood, tailored for the Saudi market. After a 10x growth in 2024, we've captured a significant share of the market and are preparing for our next phase: scaling performance and preparing for IPO.  

**Job Overview**

We’re building an excellence center to deliver a new high-performance, modular, and scalable trading infrastructure. As a Tech Lead or Senior Backend Engineer, you’ll be core to this transformation — architecting systems capable of handling hundreds of concurrent transactions and helping us scale into 2025 and beyond.

## Tasks

*   Lead the design and development of high performance trading systems, ensuring robust architecture and scalability.
*   Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate new features and enhance existing functionalities in trading platforms.
*   Mentor and guide a team of engineers, fostering a culture of innovation and technical excellence.
*   Conduct performance analysis and optimization to ensure low-latency and high-throughput trading operations.
*   Stay abreast of industry trends and emerging technologies to drive continuous improvement in trading system capabilities.

## Requirements

**Must have:**

*   5+ years (Tech Lead) or 3+ years (Senior Developer) of backend system development.
*   Proven experience in high-performance trading systems or real-time financial applications.
*   Strong command of system architecture, API design, and data handling under load.
*   Passion for clean code — ideally with personal GitHub projects or side work to show.
*   Comfortable working independently and in startup environments.

**Nice to have:**

*   Experience with OMS (Order Management Systems) and EOD (End-of-Day) settlement systems.
*   Background in fintech, brokerages, or building mobile trading platforms.
*   Familiarity with microservices, distributed systems, or event-driven architecture.
*   Experience mentoring or managing small engineering teams (for Tech Lead).

## Benefits

*   Competitive salary with equity (for Tech Lead role).
*   Remote-friendly team culture with Cairo-based core team.
*   Opportunity to shape architecture and engineering culture from the ground up.
*   Pre-IPO equity upside — we’re preparing to go public in 2026.
