We’re backed by top VCs in the industry, Archetype, Jump Crypto, Nascent, and Shima, and our team has worked at some of the best web2 and web3 companies in the world. We move fast, build in the open, and are eager to bring on new team members!

Qualifications

None of these are strict requirements—we believe great candidates can come from many different backgrounds.

• Experience building data systems with modern technologies like Spark, Beam, or Flink
• Experience designing relational database schemas
• Experience with cloud infrastructure DevOps
• Excellent communication ability
• Strong sense of ownership and craftsmanship
• Can move quickly and accurately under conditions of uncertainty without supervision
  
  

Bonus points if you have previous blockchain data, early-stage startup, or finance experience!

Responsibilities

As a data engineer, your responsibilities will include:

• Building our core data systems and API
• Collaborating with product engineers to ship new features
• Increasing team productivity by improving the development lifecycle
  
  

Since we’re a startup, in addition to the above, you’ll have the chance to be involved in other areas of the business like product, growth, recruiting, and fundraising.

Our Process

• The first step is a phone screen with a recruiter for us to learn some of the basics about your background.
• The second step is meeting Charlie, our CTO. He’ll ask in-depth questions about your work history, as well as give you an overview of our company and culture.
• The third step is a technical take-home assignment where you’ll solve a problem similar to the ones we face every day.
• After the take-home, you’ll meet us on-site to whiteboard a system design problem, discuss how you think about engineering management and processes, and enjoy a delicious lunch with the team!
• Finally, we like to do a paid trial run, where you’ll be working with us over a weekend or part-time during the week. This lets both sides make a more informed decision about working together.
• Afterwards, we’ll ask for references with past colleagues and compile a formal offer
