Gemini Tech Stack
Cryptocurrency exchange and custody platform for individuals and institutions
Gemini operates a crypto trading and custody platform built on a polyglot stack spanning Python, Spark, Flink, Kafka, and Rust—infrastructure designed for high-throughput, low-latency systems. The engineering-heavy hiring profile (7 of 11 core technical roles) paired with active blockchain adoption and projects around distributed systems for millions of users and fraud detection instrumentation suggests Gemini is scaling infrastructure to handle transaction volume and regulatory complexity simultaneously. Pain points cluster around data pipeline scalability and fraud/risk automation—areas where engineering velocity directly impacts both user experience and compliance posture.
