What You’ll Own
- Drive real features: Be responsible for delivering key backend components in areas like DeFi protocols, institutional crypto trading, portfolio management, and analytics pipelines.
- Build reliably at scale: Design and maintain Python microservices with a strong emphasis on test coverage, observability, performance, and maintainability.
- Automate everything: Create scripts and tools to streamline our deployment, monitoring, and operations.
- Shape the codebase: Participate in peer review, define best practices, and help evolve our engineering standards.
- Flex your autonomy: Own components end-to-end—from specs to deployment.
