The Discipline ā¤ļø

Our engineering discipline builds the technology that enables MoonPay to learn quickly and scale easily. We organise in small cross-functional squads of 3-5 engineers and an embedded Product Manager, Product Designer and Product Data Analyst. We currently have 3 squads across Payments / Finance, Compliance / Fraud and Core Product / Growth. Over time these squads will split out and we are also building new squads focusing on new revenue streams and product verticals. We’re pragmatic and believe in having fluid structure, this means people can move between teams or specialise.

  • Typescript as our programming language of choice
  • Node.js as our backend platform
  • TypeORM, TypeDI, TypeGraphQL and routing-controllers as our backend libraries
  • Postgres as our core database
  • Redis for caching
  • Bull to manage background tasks
  • Heroku to host our backend services
  • Some AWS services to send emails, store objects and manage private keys
  • New Relic, Coralogix and Sentry for logging and monitoring
  • GitHub to manage our source code
  • ethers.js to interact with different EVM compatible blockchains
  • Jest to run our tests āœ…

What you’ll do šŸ‘€

  • Take ownership of MoonPay’s native crypto stack. This is a new area for us and you’ll be owning the architecture and implementation from day one.
  • Build lightweight hot wallets to handle Ethereum key generation and outbound transfers to our customers.
  • Work with Ethereum layer 2 scaling solutions like Polygon (Matic) and zkSync to offer layer 2 ETH assets to our customers.
  • Work on other innovative blockchains where few have ventured such as Flow.
  • Work with Product Managers to come up with the best solutions and implementation plans for new features or changes to existing ones.
  • Contribute to the estimations, planning and execution of projects, features, and integrations.
  • Write fully tested, high quality and performant code.

As a Senior you will be expected to:

  • Mentor and coach Engineers.
  • Champion the writing of high quality code.
  • Contribute to our overall approach and standards within the Engineering discipline.
  • Lead squads from an Engineering perspective, partnering closely with Product Managers.

You should apply if āœ…

  • You’ve built production-grade cryptocurrency wallets.
  • You have extensive engineering experience at leading startups or fast growing tech companies focusing on the crypto stack.
  • You are confident in developing, releasing and maintaining server applications in a fast paced, iterative environment.
  • You have either had experience with Solidity, Ethereum and Bitcoin or are confident you can cross train and up skill quickly.
  • You’ve got a deep understanding of blockchain fundamentals, theories, principles and best practices.
  • Bonus points if you make open-source contributions or have experience in Blockchain or FinTech.

Researchhas shown that women are less likely than men to apply for this role if they do not have solid experience in 100% of these areas. Please know that this list is indicative and that we would still love to hear from you even if you feel you only are a 75% match. Skills can be learnt, diversity cannot.

We promote a diverse and inclusive culture at MoonPay.

What does a blockchain engineer do?

A blockchain engineer is responsible for developing and implementing blockchain-based solutions

Here are some of the key responsibilities of a blockchain engineer:

  1. Design and develop blockchain protocols: The blockchain engineer is responsible for designing and developing blockchain protocols, including consensus algorithms, data structures, and security protocols.
  2. Develop decentralized applications: The blockchain engineer builds decentralized applications (DApps) that run on top of blockchain networks.
  3. Write smart contracts: Smart contracts are self-executing contracts that run on blockchain networks. The blockchain engineer writes smart contracts using programming languages such as Solidity.
  4. Implement and test blockchain solutions: The blockchain engineer implements and tests blockchain solutions to ensure they work as intended.
  5. Stay up-to-date with the latest blockchain technologies: The blockchain industry is constantly evolving, and a blockchain engineer must stay up-to-date with the latest trends and technologies.
  6. Collaborate with other developers: The blockchain engineer collaborates with other developers, such as front-end developers, to integrate blockchain solutions into larger software applications.
  7. Ensure security and scalability: The blockchain engineer must ensure that the blockchain solution is secure and scalable to handle a large number of users and transactions.
