About the role

Our backend team is responsible for the APIs, services, and tooling that sit between users and decentralized protocols, enabling seamless, secure access to RWAs and DeFi strategies.

Design and implement scalable, secure backend systems and APIs for interacting with both onchain protocols and offchain infrastructure.
Collaborate with smart contract engineers to define interfaces and workflows between backend services and blockchain networks (EVM and non-EVM).
Own integrations with custodians, identity/KYC providers, payments infrastructure, and third-party blockchain tooling.
Support internal ops, investor services, and compliance teams with automation, auditability, and observability tools.
We have both a technology arm that develops decentralized finance technology, and an asset management arm that creates and manages tokenized funds.

4+ years of backend software engineering experience, ideally with strong familiarity in modern languages such as Go (Golang), Python, C++, and TypeScript.
Strong understanding of distributed systems, system design, and API development.
Comfort operating in a fast-moving startup environment with high ambiguity and high ownership.
Experience working with blockchain/Web3 data providers like The Graph, Alchemy, or Moralis.

Experience integrating with cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred), third-party services, and security/compliance-sensitive systems.
Familiarity with EVM-based blockchains and smart contract interactions is a plus, but not required.
