Company mission

To provide developers with the fundamental building blocks they need to create the future of technology without the hassle of managing blockchain infrastructure in-house.

Role

  • We are hiring at the mid, senior, and staff level all with exciting internal and ecosystem level ownership opportunities
  • Experience owning, shipping, and iterating on user-facing products and web applications with large user bases
  • Pride in working on projects to successful completion involving a wide variety of technologies and systems
  • The ability to stitch together many different services and processes together even if they have not worked with them before
  • Self-starter attitude and the ability to execute new ideas with autonomy
  • Ability to find the right balance between perfection and shipping quickly
  • Proficiency with TypeScript, React (or equivalent), NodeJS and the tooling supporting a modern web development stack
  • Production Native Mobile and React Native Experience, a plus
  • Web3 experience, a plus
  • Founded a company or built side projects, a plus
  • Experience in startups, a plus

What the job involves

  • Our team mission is to enable developers to bring mainstream users on-chain with simple, secure, and self-sovereign web3 accounts. We’re building next-gen wallets with Account Abstraction (ERC-4337) that radically simplify the traditional wallet experience for mainstream users
  • As a full stack engineer on the team, you’ll work on high-impact, user-facing products, and be responsible for building new libraries to drive that mission. You’ll also contribute to our team culture, open source code base, and developer docs as we scale our team and the AA ecosystem
  • The work you do will be the first thing users see, developers use, and define account experiences for users, developers, and the biggest companies in the space
  • This role has a dual inside/outside charter of not only engineering Alchemy products, but also developing the broader EVM ecosystem. You will contribute to team roadmap planning, engaging with the ecosystem through open-source contributions, standards development, and strategic partnerships
  • Define and own the end-to-end development of user-facing features for blockchain developers
  • Build new tools for debugging blockchain apps on the web
  • Debug production issues across services and multiple levels of the stack
  • Uphold best practices around code quality, strong typing and API design
  • Collaborate with teammates working on design, growth and blockchain infrastructure
  • Designing tools that blockchain developers will use to dive into their smart contracts, on-chain transactions and API calls
  • Building onboarding features that help developers new to the blockchain successfully build and launch their first application
  • Launching exciting new blockchains and bringing their unique features into the web platform

Our take

Blockchain technology is a rapidly growing industry with many startups and established companies developing new applications that utilize it. However, many companies reinvent the wheel as they each attempt to build their own version of the blockchain software.

Alchemy offers a platform that simplifies the creation of blockchains and the launching of new nodes. It provides developers with “building blocks” that can be used to make the process more efficient. Alchemy is already working with multinational organizations like Meta, Adobe, and Splunk, and it has won many clients from their current top competitor, Infura.

The company has seen considerable growth and is now acquiring companies to improve its stack. It now serves over 10M end users and became a deca unicorn after attracting impressive funding in 2022. It continues to refine its platform to gain competitive edge, recently launching a transaction simulation product to help reduce the chances of transactions becoming susceptible to scams.
