About the role
- Build core DeFi backend and execution systems bridging on-chain activity with off-chain trading, accounting, and risk.
- Own protocol integrations end-to-end: data pipelines, execution flows, monitoring, and reliability.
- Operate in latency-sensitive, failure-intolerant environments with real capital at risk.
- Contribute to architecture decisions and new DeFi infrastructure initiatives.
- Design and operate on-chain monitoring, indexing, and position-state systems across protocols and chains.
- Build automated execution and integration layers for DeFi protocols, including atomic flows and advanced strategies.
- Implement real-time risk controls, alerts, and guardrails spanning on-chain and off-chain systems.
- Partner with traders and researchers to align DeFi systems with institutional requirements.
Requirements
- 5+ years Python combined with either Rust, C#, or Java backend experience building concurrent, production-grade, latency-sensitive systems.
- Deep DeFi experience: AMMs, liquidity positions, yield strategies, protocol math, and accounting.
- Strong execution engineering: transaction lifecycle, nonce/mempool behavior, reorg-aware verification, MEV tradeoffs.
- Production operations experience with Docker/Kubernetes, CI/CD, observability, and fault-tolerant systems.
- Multi-chain and cross-chain operations, bridging, and chain-specific execution nuances.
- Reorg-safe on-chain data pipelines with replay/backfill and deterministic state rebuilds.
- Atomic execution patterns, flashloans, and simulation-first execution guardrails.
- Security and protocol risk awareness across approvals, oracles, upgrades, liquidity, and MEV vectors.
