Tech stack

Software designed for maximum performance.

At BlockTech, tech isn’t just a support function – it’s a driving force. Our developers work side by side with traders to turn ideas into production-grade tools.

01

Scalability & performance

We build systems that can process massive trade volumes with low latency and high precision.

02

Automation & optimization

We reduce manual work across the business by designing smart and reliable automated solutions.

03

Security & reliability

We develop mission-critical systems with layered protections, strong access control, and continuous testing.

04

Experimentation & collaboration

We work closely with teams across BlockTech to quickly test new ideas and iterate on their feedback.

Tech stack

Languages we speak.

We operate on a lean stack. For front-end development, we mostly use JavaScript and React. On the back-end, our languages of choice are Python and Rust – not only because it’s fast and memory-efficient, but because it enables us to build reliable systems with fewer bugs.

At BlockTech, we value simple, readable code over cleverness. Most of the team has a background in computer science or mathematics. Everyone works hands-on, including our team leads. Collaboration is key, and great ideas are never ignored – no matter where they come from.
