  • ML-Augmented Infrastructure — Machine learning pipelines for real-time prediction, execution heuristics, and anomaly detection.
  • High-Throughput Systems — Resilient, low-latency engines that operate 24/7 across EVM and non-EVM chains tuned for high-frequency trading (HFT) and real-time response
  • Data-Driven MEV Analysis & Strategy — We analyze mempools, order flow, and validator behaviors to identify and capture MEV opportunities ethically—powering strategies that interact deeply with the mechanics of block production and inclusion.

Ideal Traits

  • Strong in data structures, algorithms, and core CS fundamentals.
  • Proficiency in any programming language
  • Understanding of probability, statistics, or ML concepts.
  • Self-driven and comfortable with ambiguity, iteration, and fast learning cycles.
  • Strong interest in markets, trading, or algorithmic systems.


Bonus Points For

  • Experience with backtesting or feature engineering.
  • Exposure to crypto primitives (AMMs, perps, mempools, etc.)
  • Projects involving alpha signals, strategy testing, or DeFi bots.
  • Participation in quant contests, hackathons, or open-source work.


What You’ll Gain:

  • Cutting-Edge Tech Stack: You'll work on modern infrastructure and stay up to date with the latest trends in technology.
  • Idea-Driven Culture: We welcome and encourage fresh ideas. Your input is valued, and you're empowered to make an impact from day one.

  • Impact-Focused: Your work won’t be buried under bureaucracy. You’ll see it go live and make a difference in days, not quarters


What We Value:

  • Craftsmanship over shortcuts: We appreciate engineers who take the time to understand the problem deeply and build durable solutions—not just quick fixes.
  • Depth over haste: If you're the kind of person who enjoys going one level deeper to really "get" how something works, you'll thrive here.
  • Invested mindset: We're looking for people who don't just punch tickets, but care about the long-term success of the systems they build.
  • Curiosity with follow-through: We admire those who take the time to explore and validate new ideas, not just skim the surface.
