Who We Are At OKX, we believe that the future will be reshaped by crypto, and ultimately contribute to every individual's freedom. OKX is a leading crypto exchange, and the developer of OKX Wallet, giving millions access to crypto trading and decentralized crypto applications (dApps). OKX is also a trusted brand by hundreds of large institutions seeking access to crypto markets. We are safe and reliable, backed by our Proof of Reserves. Across our multiple offices globally, we are united by our core principles: We Before Me , Do the Right Thing , and Get Things Done . These shared values drive our culture, shape our processes, and foster a friendly, rewarding, and diverse environment for every OK-er. OKX is part of OKG, a group that brings the value of Blockchain to users around the world, through our leading products OKX, OKX Wallet, OKLink and more. About The Opportunity We are seeking a senior trading-technology leader to design and deliver the technology stack connecting customers to a regulated US derivatives market. The ideal candidate will have built an FCM operation from the ground up or led the technology function at a leading FCM or service provider for FCMs and broker-dealers. They will bring deep knowledge of the vendor landscape and a strong track record of making strategic technology, operational, and build-versus-buy decisions. You will report to the OKX Core Trading Product Management leadership with a dotted line to the CEO and COO of the local entity. The essential profile is someone who can make architecture and vendor decisions — Not someone hired merely to implement a vendor choice already made. What You’ll Be Doing Design the end-to-end US derivatives trading architecture. Lead the selection of the clearing FCM, OMS and market-access providers. Deep familiarity with leading OMS, risk-management, and market-data vendors in the U.S. derivatives ecosystem. Decide between vendor-provided, direct-exchange and hybrid connectivity.
