Our mission is to democratize finance for all. An estimated $124 trillion of assets will be inherited by younger generations in the next two decades. The largest transfer of wealth in human history. If you’re ready to be at the epicenter of this historic cultural and financial shift, keep reading.

The Derivatives team is building the largest regulated exchange for perpetual markets. We’re scaling fast — expanding our product line, launching new contracts, and aiming to 10x our infrastructure to meet surging demand. We operate at the intersection of crypto, finance, and performance engineering.

As an Engineering Manager, you’ll lead the team that powers our core derivatives trading services. You’ll own technical direction, execution, and talent development as we scale the platform to support the next wave of crypto finance. This is a high-impact leadership role for someone excited to work hands-on with systems that demand performance, precision, and reliability!

The role is located in Slovenia and will align with our in-office working environment. Please connect with your recruiter for more information regarding our in-office philosophy and expectations.

At Robinhood, we believe in the power of in-person work to accelerate progress, spark innovation, and strengthen community. Our office experience is intentional, energizing, and designed to fully support high-performing teams.

Applications for this role will be accepted through May 25th
