Role
Who you are
- We care far more that someone has solid fundamentals, is generally intelligent, has strong learning agility, and is an overall good human
- That said, we’re excited about the rapidly evolving tech we’re building on. It includes:
- Web & server-side TypeScript
- React with Next.js
- Rust for performance-critical code
- Ethers, Viem, and custom Web3 tooling
- Kong API Gateway to a Kubernetes cluster
- 5 years+ as Software Engineer
- Experience with modern Front End frameworks + web fundamentals
- Experience creating and maintaining high-throughput APIs
- Previous exposure to web3/blockchain applications
- Passion for the benefits of decentralization and the web3 world
- Exhibit our core values: do the right thing, consistently ship, and focus on long-term impact
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
Desirable
- Familiarity with API Security & DevOps Services
- Experience developing dynamic, content-rich web front ends
- EVM experience
What the job involves
- Create trustworthy user experiences by building, testing, and shipping features that are simple, intuitive, performant, and reliable
- Own entire features from specification to shipping
- Work effectively with a high degree of autonomy, within a collaboratively minded team
- Keep abreast of the nascent and rapidly evolving blockchain space, and introduce innovative tools and products
- Collaborate cross-functionally with other teams, including engineering (internal and external), design, research, data science, product management, executive leadership, and recruiting
- Be a steward and influencer of our engineering culture
Our take
0x had its beginnings as a decentralized crypto exchange before its founders noticed a problem - while the apps built to facilitate crypto trading were functional, the user experience was usually terrible. 0x changed to become a decentralized exchange protocol instead, and provides a suite of APIs and tools so developers can build decentralized apps capable of competing with the likes of PayPal or Stripe for ease of use and functionality.
0x's product has wide appeal in the Web3 space and has grown a strong customer base including the likes of Coinbase, Robinhood and Polygon, and has a trading volume exceeding $125 billion. Having raised a large amount of capital in a 2022 funding round, it is focusing on expanding its team as well as its product range. While the crypto world is currently subject to intense volatility, 0x is enabling businesses to build apps and products that make the market more navigable. This will go a long way towards improving trust and stability in the sector.
