About The Position

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our engineering team and build the core infrastructure that powers our stablecoin platform. In this role, you'll design and ship services that handle custody, transfers, issuance, and compliance workflows—systems that process real money and require exceptional reliability and security. You'll work within one of our product verticals (Custody, On/Off Ramps, Issuance, or Shared Services), collaborating closely with product managers, compliance, and other engineers. Our teams are small and cross-functional, which means your work ships fast and has direct impact on customers and partners. This is an opportunity to build financial infrastructure at a 30+ person company where ownership is real. We expect engineers to take initiative. Whether that's shipping features, improving observability, or strengthening the codebase. If you want to work on hard problems in a regulated domain where your contributions matter immediately, we'd love to talk.

  • Ability to lead a medium-scope project: updating an API contract, implementing a partner integration, or improving robustness of a critical path.
  • Ability to strengthen reliability with better logging, tracing, alerts, and failure handling.
  • Ability to lead a cross-service initiative, such as an API versioning plan, a data model migration, or a compliance-driven workflow change.
  • Ability to shape technical direction with design docs and mentoring.
  • Ability to partner with product and compliance to make pragmatic, regulation-aware tradeoffs.
