We’re looking for “cracked” engineers who are not intimidated by complex systems and unfamiliar domains. You’re the perfect candidate if you feel comfortable designing and improving upon complex mechanism/incentives designs in decentralized finance, doing systems programming in whatever language required, working on quantitative modeling/development, and building novel crypto products usable by DeFi power users and newcomers the like.

What We Look For

• Chicago strongly preferred!
• Deep understanding of decentralized finance primitives: CLMM swaps, borrow/lend, CDP stablecoins, delta-neutral stablecoins, tokenized RWAs
• A good sense of mechanism designs and an eye for polish
• Is a product-minded individual who not only knows how to build the thing but also how to build for the customer
• Maintain a high standard of security, correctness, and thoughtfulness in code development
• Produce high-quality, maintainable, and well-tested code with comprehensive documentation
• Highly proficient in either Rust or C++
• Highly proficient in Python
• Has experience as a front-office quant/developer in trading, or DeFi equivalent (Solana preferred)

Application Process

• You’ve built something you’re proud of. Explain it to us. Talk about the problems you solved, the things you didn’t know, what you’d add, and more
• Show me your favorite dapp and why you think it’s great. How would you improve it? How would you compose it with other products?
• Talk about your ideal role and past experience
• Technical interviews with the founding team, including live coding
