- Research the top DeFi protocols to uncover better insights for our customers and evaluate their risk profiles, security, and historical returns
- Manage production deployments, logging, and monitoring
We expect you to be fairly comfortable with working with both web3 and web2 stacks. We do not expect that you have web3 experience on day 1, but you should be willing to wear multiple hats, learn things quickly and move fast.
About you
- Generalist, a solid engineer who can learn things on your own and have an eye for clean, tested, and well-documented code
