Who You Are

• 8+ years in software engineering with a focus on distributed systems or high-speed transaction platforms. You've built payment systems or real-time data pipelines before and loved it.

• Deep payments expertise across traditional payment networks (RTP/ACH, UPI, PIX, SEPA, SWIFT) and modern crypto rails. You understand stablecoins, have integrated with payment processors like Stripe or PayPal, and can navigate both bank APIs and blockchain protocols.

• Blockchain fluency with hands-on experience building on Ethereum, Bitcoin, Solana, or other chains. You've worked with stablecoin integrations, understand smart contract interactions, and maybe even wrote some Solidity or Rust.

• Zero-knowledge proof experience for payment privacy - you've implemented ZK circuits for transaction verification, worked with libraries like circom or arkworks, and understand how to hide payment amounts and sender/receiver details while still proving transaction validity.

• Performance optimization mindset - you've tuned JVM garbage collectors, optimized SQL queries, or fine-tuned cloud deployments for throughput. Terms like latency, throughput, and concurrency make you excited, not scared.

• Cloud-native experience deploying and running services in AWS, GCP, or Azure. You're comfortable with Docker/Kubernetes and have built CI/CD pipelines that handle financial-grade systems.

• Security and compliance focus - you code and build with security at top of mind, understand regulatory frameworks like AML/KYC, and have experience with financial compliance requirements.

• Consulting and client-facing experience in technical roles (solutions consultant, solutions architect, or sales engineer). You can establish strong relationships and explain complex payment flows to both technical and business stakeholders.

• Fast-paced environment enthusiast who thrives in startup-like consulting work. Unknowns don't frighten you – you embrace learning new payment technologies on the fly and take ownership of complex integration challenges.

• Self-sufficient and proactive with strong autonomy. You can work independently with clients, scope technical solutions, and drive projects from concept to production.

What You'll Do

• Build the Future of Money Movement: Design and code the core of real-time transaction engines for our clients. You'll combine Web2 payment networks (ACH, SWIFT, UPI) with Web3 rails to create unified payments platforms. One moment you might be working on an integration with a bank's RTP API, the next you're writing a smart contract to move stablecoins on-chain.

• Integrate Stablecoins & DeFi: Bring the power of crypto to mainstream payments for clients. You will integrate stablecoins into platforms for lightning-speed value transfer and connect to DeFi protocols to get the best FX rates automatically. We're talking always-on, cross-border transfers without the usual headaches.

• Performance Tuning at Extreme Scale: Obliterate transaction speed barriers. You'll profile every millisecond of transaction pipelines, from database writes to network hops, tweaking message brokers, optimizing smart contract calls, and fine-tuning cloud infrastructure to achieve sub-millisecond latency where possible.

• Ensure Rock-Solid Reliability: Architect resilient systems across multiple regions, implement fallback mechanisms, and use chaos engineering to test limits. Our reliability goal is 99.999% uptime and you're the kind of engineer who thinks five nines is just the beginning.

• Build with Security at the Core: Code and build with security at top of mind, ensuring every integration and system meets the highest standards of security and compliance.

• Drive Innovation & Client Success: Collaborate with client product and data teams to ideate new features and incorporate AI-driven fraud detection. You're not just coding to spec – you're actively thinking of ways to push the envelope, acting as a crucial part of our client success strategy.

Why Work With Us

• 🚀 Accelerate Your Growth: Work across multiple blockchain ecosystems and cutting-edge projects with a team that ships fast.

• 💥 Maximize Impact: Shape the future of web3 by helping ambitious projects reach their potential.

• 🏅 True Ownership: Everyone ships code and has real autonomy with minimal meetings.

• 💻 Remote-First Culture: Work from anywhere in North America with competitive compensation.

• 💡 Continuous Learning: Be part of a team of engineers who love learning and knowledge sharing.

Why This Might Not Be For You

• 🐂 You're Not Web3 Bullish: We're all in on web3's potential and need teammates who share this vision.

• 🏗️ You Crave High Structure: We thrive in an autonomous, fast-moving environment, which means you need to be comfortable with some ambiguity.

• 😴 You Prefer Conventional Careers: Our consulting approach involves varied projects and direct client interaction — it's not for everyone.

• 1️⃣ You Like Staying in One Lane: Our projects require adapting to different tech stacks and blockchain ecosystems quickly.

Benefits & Perks

• 🌐 Work From Anywhere: Choose your workspace — all you need is strong wifi and a passion for building!

• 🧘‍♂️ Work / Life Balance: We believe in our team’s ability to have it all; a great career, and time to unplug and live…you know...life.

• 🏖️ Unlimited PTO: Everyone needs a break. Take at least 15 days off a year, and more if you need—just be cool about it and keep the team in mind.

• 🎉 Regular Team Retreat: Join us for a week of team bonding at amazing destinations. Recent trips include the Dominican Republic, Cancun, and Hawaii — plus ones welcome.
