Who Are You?
A junior-level full-stack/backend engineer (Cloud veteran) with a solid background in financial applications and relevant backend technologies (e.g. Typescript, NodeJS, Python, databases, cloud services, network infrastructure, etc.). You are familiar with decentralized applications on the Ethereum blockchain (or complementary Layer-2 networks) such as Premia and Uniswap, as well as centralized crypto applications such as Deribit and Coinbase, and understand the backend technologies and cloud services often used by these projects.
You are passionate about building highly scalable, resilient, and performant software systems for the next generation of financial applications on the internet and have a wide set of skills and experience to execute on this. You understand the necessity for building dependable, scalable, and developer-friendly systems in order to support realtime financial applications.
You have experience and are culturally aligned with fast-moving small teams. You have worked in a remote (globally distributed) team before, preferably in a startup environment. You are self-driven, highly knowledgeable about building performant, scalable Cloud services, and can swiftly ship high quality software systems when needed. You can identify company priorities, own them, and iterate quickly to ship the best solution within aggressive deadlines.
You understand the necessity of thoroughly testing financial applications and the systems thereof before and after shipping any service to production. You have experience utilizing testing suites, CI/CD, and issue tracking systems to effectively maintain resilient production software at scale.
You can write and speak highly fluent English and have great communication skills. You work well in a team.
