- strong with infra - networking (tcp/ip, dns, load balancing), databases (mysql, postgres, dynamodb), iac tools like terraform, cloudformation, or aws cdk
- experience with monitoring/logging tools like prometheus, grafana, cloudwatch, elk, or splunk
- smart contract awareness - ability to write, test, and debug them is a plus
- familiarity with defi protocols, nft standards, or web3 developer tooling
- solid testing practices and an eye for performance, security, and fault tolerance
what'll make you stand out
- been promoted quickly at a strong company - FAANG, Stripe, Coinbase, Kraken etc
- contributed to open source or have a strong github - lot of green squares!
- worked at a payments, infra, or crypto startup
- built backend systems that had to scale and stay up under pressure
- come from a top-tier university - MIT, Stanford, CMU, Berkeley etc
why you should apply
- work on systems that actually ship and scale
- high-caliber team, tight feedback loops, strong engineering culture
- hybrid NYC setup - mon–thurs in-office, fridays remote
- real product-market fit, real adoption, and plenty left to build
please apply today if the above sounds like you.
