Senior Software Engineer – Digital Assets Custody

As Swissquote continues to expand its digital assets custody activities, we are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Software Engineering Infrastructure Department. You will be part of the team developing and maintaining our custody, staking, and liquidity management solutions — core components of Swissquote’s digital asset ecosystem. Beyond pure development, you will play a key coordination role, ensuring smooth alignment between engineers, internal stakeholders (Compliance, ALM, Risk, IT-Sec, Business), and external partners. Your technical expertise and communication skills will help bridge business requirements, regulatory constraints, and engineering realities to deliver secure, compliant, and efficient solutions. Your Responsibilities: - Participate actively in the design, development, and delivery of backend services for custody, wallets, staking, and liquidity management (mainly in Java / Spring Boot). - Act as a coordination point within the team: clarify requirements, track progress, and ensure consistency between product, engineering, and external vendors. - Translate evolving business and regulatory needs into clear and actionable technical tasks. - Collaborate closely with Compliance, Risk, and ALM to anticipate regulatory impacts on existing systems and propose pragmatic technical solutions. - Maintain alignment with external partners (custodians, staking providers, blockchain analytics vendors) to ensure successful integrations and smooth operations. - Support project planning and delivery follow-up in collaboration with the Program Manager and Product Owners. - Contribute to continuous improvement of internal tools, documentation, and delivery processes. - Maintain a strong focus on quality, security, and operational reliability of the custody systems.
