Senior Software Engineer (Tokenization)

• We are building an elite team, applying frontier technologies to the world’s biggest financial problems. We’re looking for bold thinkers. Sharp problem-solvers. Builders who are wired to make an impact. Robinhood isn’t a place for complacency, it’s where ambitious people do the best work of their careers. We’re a high-performing, fast-moving team with ethics at the center of everything we do. Expectations are high, and so are the rewards
• The Tokenization team’s mission is to bring both public and private equity to be tradable 24/7 on decentralized exchanges (DEXs) across the Robinhood Chain. We work at the intersection of blockchain technology, financial market infrastructure, and modern distributed systems - with a focus on accessibility, security, and scalability. Equity markets have been closed nights and weekends for a century; we’re building the infrastructure that changes that
• As a Senior Software Engineer, you will design and build the core systems that issue, custody, and settle tokenized equities on‑chain and keep them in sync with traditional brokerage and ledger systems. You’ll lead technically complex projects end to end, make architectural decisions on a foundational Robinhood initiative, and work in a domain where correctness is non‑negotiable - the systems you build move real customer assets, continuously, across multiple chains and jurisdictions
• Design, build, and operate the backend services that mint, custody, and settle tokenized equities across leading blockchains, with correctness and auditability as hard requirements
• Own large, technically complex projects end to end - design, implementation, rollout, and operating what you ship in a 24/7 system
• Build the connective tissue between traditional market infrastructure (brokerage, ledgers, corporate actions) and on‑chain systems, including smart contract integrations, chain indexers, and DEX trade flows
• Partner with product, compliance, legal, and platform teams to turn regulatory constraints into workable system design
• Raise the technical bar through design reviews, code reviews, and hands‑on mentorship

Experience mentoring engineers and influencing technical direction beyond your own projectsDemonstrated ownership of ambiguous, cross‑functional projects, with the judgment to make tradeoffs and drive alignment5+ years of professional software engineering experience, including a track record of delivering large‑scale distributed systems in productionExpertise in backend development with Go, Python, or Java, and deep familiarity with cloud‑native architecture (Kafka, Postgres, Kubernetes, or equivalents)Working knowledge of blockchain fundamentals - EVM, smart contracts, wallets, on‑chain settlement - or a strong appetite to go deep quicklyStrong instincts for correctness‑critical systems - idempotency, reconciliation, and reasoning carefully about failure modes when money is at stake
