Investment Systems Engineer

Titanium Birch isn't your typical investment firm.We're a small, multidisciplinary team building systems that make investing sharper, faster, and more thoughtful. Our work spans software, data, and operations. As we learn and explore more about businesses, markets, and investing, we use automation to coalesce and scale our ideas.Whether you've built production systems, automated workflows, or improved tools others rely on, we're looking for engineers who think broadly: people who bring structure to ambiguity, design pragmatic solutions, and make technology work for people, not the other way around.No finance experience? That's fine.
