About Our Client
We're building a next gen mobile-first crypto trading product, combining the power of DeFi with the simplicity and engagement of popular consumers apps. The platform will re-imagine how users trade crypto by delivering institutional-grade trading capabilities through an intuitive, gamified mobile experience.
The founding team have built and scaled consumer products in crypto and the company is backed by a tier-1 VC. Currently operating in stealth.
We are looking for an obsessive backend engineer to join the team, working in a live-in team environment for the first 3 months to create an exceptional product.
To be clear, the team will live in a house together to get this product from 0-1 for approximately 3 months and likely make lifelong memories in the process. TBD on location, but it will be paradise.
There will be exactly 2 priorities in our lives during this time:
Building this product and staying healthy.
Everything else (cooking & cleaning primarily) will be taken care of for you.
Primary Responsibilities
Architect and build the backend using Golang or Node w/ a performant database
Build and optimize third-party API integrations (Jupiter, Birdeye, Codex, Turnkey)

Handle user management and authentication flows
Set up monitoring for all third-party services
Build abstractions that make the mobile app lightning fast
Required Technical Skills
3 years of backend development experience
Strong experience integrating and scaling third-party APIs
Deep understanding of caching strategies and data optimization
Experience with websocket implementations at scale
You're in the trenches & have a strong understanding of crypto
Experience building systems that handle real-time data
Soft Skills
You are deep in crypto and can build things without complex planning
You are extremely competitive and obsessive
You optimize for speed without sacrificing reliability
You can make quick decisions about architecture
Work Environment
Fast paced, live-in team environment
You can fill in design gaps when necessary to move quickly
Direct collaboration with other engineers
You are internally motivated and extremely autonomous when hitting goals
Compensation
Food and accommodation are taken care of
You’ll make more money than you do now, have free food and accommodation, plus live in paradise for 3 months with other teammates.
