• Collaborate with the CTO and leadership on long-term technical strategy and system design.
• Take ownership of projects end-to-end, from technical planning to deployment and monitoring.
• Lead deep technical discussions, perform rigorous code reviews, and enforce engineering standards.
• Design with security-first principles, implementing encryption, identity management, and compliance frameworks.
• Explore new technologies including blockchain integrations, cryptography, and AI-driven risk detection.

Requirements

What We’re Looking For:

• 5–8 years of professional full-stack development experience.
• Proficiency with JavaScript/TypeScript, Node.js, and React/Next.js.
• Strong backend expertise with databases, distributed systems, and high-throughput APIs.
• Experience with microservices and cloud-native architecture (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
• Deep knowledge of authentication, access control, and security protocols.
• Proven ability to deliver in high-pressure, high-impact environments.
• Experience with blockchain, identity, or cryptographic systems is a strong plus.
• Comfortable collaborating directly with C-level executives on technical trade-offs.

Benefits

Benefits:

• 401(k) with company match.
• Student loan reimbursement program.
• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage.
• Professional development budget for certifications, advanced training, and conferences.
• Wellness stipend for fitness, mental health, or lifestyle support.
• Equity participation opportunities.
• Generous vacation and flexible PTO.
• In-person HQ culture with direct access to CTO and founders.
