- Design, build, and scale robust financial software systems and backend services that power money movement, custody, and payment flows
- Develop and maintain web frontends (React, LiveView) with a focus on UX, collaborating closely with designers to deliver polished, user-friendly products
- Architect and optimize wallet and custody solutions for a variety of cryptocurrencies, ensuring security, reliability, and scalability
- Own projects end-to-end: From concept and design through implementation, testing, deployment, and monitoring
- Collaborate cross-functionally with product, compliance, and other engineering teams to deliver secure and delightful financial products

- Identify and address performance bottlenecks, reliability gaps, and opportunities for automation
