About the Role
Join an early-stage financial technology team building production banking infrastructure for digital assets and AI-enabled financial services. As a founding engineer for US operations, you will own core backend systems and help shape the platform from the ground up.
What You'll Do

Make decisions about system design, data modeling, and architectural tradeoffs.
Work with engineering, product, and clients to guide the evolution of core banking systems.
Build simple, automated systems that reduce recurring manual work.
What We're Looking For
At least 3 years of hands-on backend software engineering experience, including production work on banking, financial systems, or large-scale core infrastructure.
At least 1 year of experience in an early-stage or small startup environment.
Experience designing and delivering major projects end-to-end, including making production system design and data modeling decisions.
Strong ability to ship iteratively, maintain code quality, and take ownership of reliable systems.
Comfort working in new problem areas without an established playbook.
Interest in core banking systems and financial infrastructure.
