  • Rapid Prototyping: Rapidly prototype user flows to gain market feedback, adjust accordingly, and productionize code as necessary.
  • Collaboration: Work closely with product managers, designers, and other cross-functional partners to find product-market fit.
  • Best Practices: Drive the adoption of engineering best practices, ensuring operational excellence and sound maintenance of legacy code.

  • Market Insights: Leverage deep market insights and competitive analyses to pivot the product roadmap and translate changes into code.
  • Cross-Functional Alignment: Collaborate with other engineering leaders to align team goals and priorities with broader organizational objectives.
  • Performance Monitoring: Monitor and report on key metrics and performance indicators, using data-driven insights to continuously improve processes and outcomes.
  • Representation: Serve as a technical spokesperson for the team, representing them in company-wide initiatives and external events in the onchain community.

What we look for in you (ie. job requirements):

  • Experience: 8+ years in software engineering, paired ideally with 2+ years in a leadership position (Founder, CTO, Founding Engineer, etc.) of an onchain start-up.
  • Technical Expertise: Strong background in rapid fullstack development
  • Mentorship: Ability to level-up and mentor engineers by reviewing pull requests and providing technical guidance.
  • Resilience: Exceptional grit and resilience in the face of significant ambiguity, leading the team through periods of uncertainty.
  • Product Development: Fluency in product development, business development, market analysis, thought leadership, and other cross-functional skills required of a start-up leader.
  • Communication Skills: Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to inspire, motivate, and mentor team members.
  • Payments Landscape: Deep understanding of the payments product landscape, including existing onchain products and payer/merchant dynamics.
