Swim Jobs

Swim.io is building tools for the cross-chain DeFi world. We're looking for smart and dedicated engineers to join our team and help build exciting infrastructure that is easy to use.

We wrote a React frontend in Typescript which interfaces with our smart contract and Solana's Wormhole bridge to provide a unified cross-chain swapping experience. We launched in Spring 2022 and have big plans to integrate with more chains, tokens, AMMs, and bridges. We also want to iterate on our UI to build the best cross-chain experience in DeFi. We believe DeFi apps should strive to be as intuitive and easy to use as Airbnb, yet give power and transparency to the user when needed.

You will work in a small but growing team with the option to have lots of impact and ownership. We use the standard suite of Slack, Github, and Notion. Half of our developers work remotely but occasionally visit (which is optional, of course).

So far we have a frontend and a backend/contract team. Both use pull requests, auto-lint/format, and a decent amount of tests. Besides that our process is pretty loose. We keep a backlog of tasks and usually work on whatever is highest on the stack at the moment. No recurring meetings except for the weekly company update.

Some examples of what you'll be doing:

• Maintain and expand our internal cross-chain environment, utilizing various Docker containers and Kubernetes clusters
• Improve our continuous integration pipeline (Github Actions, Cloudflare)
• Setup automatic processes for providing testnet funds to developer wallets across many chains
• Manage our RPC provider setup
• Handle everything around build errors, env vars, and DevOps-related bug bounty submissions

• Smart, ambitious, eager to learn
• Lots of experience configuring servers and CI pipelines
• Comfortable in Typescript
• Experience with DeFi welcome but optional

• No bullshit: We admit mistakes. We don't fight over who gets the credit banana.
• Exciting atmosphere: We are very ambitious and ready to adjust to the fast-paced crypto world. Flying half the team to a conference or another office is not unusual if it's positive EV.
• Healthy culture: We try to balance our passion for hard problems with sustainable working hours. We hold feedback meetings and do team events.
• Option for remote work. Our office situation is in flux -- right now we have hubs in Miami, Hong Kong, and Berlin
• Go to blockchain conferences around the globe (if you want)
• Great compensation (in crypto or fiat)
• Whatever work equipment you need in the office or at home
• Extensive global coverage health care plan
