Remote Software Engineer, Platform

New York, New York, United States Skip Full time
Description

We're looking for an intermediate software engineer to join as a founding member of our platform team. The platform team builds, scales, and secures backend services and infrastructure that support all of our products across 50+ chains in every major crypto ecosystem (Ethereum, Cosmos, Solana, Celestia).

Our ideal candidate is obsessive and detail-oriented, but also pragmatic about the systems they build — sweating the details only when necessary. They take pride in building internal tools for other engineers and treat their users with the same level of care and curiosity as external customers. The best engineer for this role has the agency, skill, and stubbornness to chase a intermittent bug through multiple backend services for days until she nails it, leaving a trail of improved observability tooling in their wake. Someone who gives up or finds that work boring will do poorly.

Role

Design & build critical blockchain-native backend services that enable our engineers to build on 75+ chains efficiently (e.g. key/fund management, scalable indexing/RPC abstractions, etc...)

Work closely with internal teams to understand the biggest blockers to improving dev velocity (e.g. testing, deployments, etc..) and build tooling/pipelines to alleviate them

Help to develop, communicate, and enforce standards for software development, maintenance, and security across Skip (e.g. oncall norms, incident response practices, testing / build tooling)

Embed with product teams from time-to-time to tackle their hardest reliability, latency, and observability problems

Contribute to high-level strategic and technical decisions regarding the tech stack, engineering practices, and our engineering roadmap

Example projects you'd be working on

Signing service - building and deploying a remote signer service that will handle securely signing transactions across 60+ chains, 4+ ecosystems

Node gateway - creating a centralized entrypoint for all of our different RPC providers, including handling ratelimiting, QoS prioritization and authentication by service

Oracle monitor - monitoring a distributed network for specific peer-to-peer messages and extrapolating oracle + network health from these messages

Qualifications

Required

3+ years of production experience with at Go or similarDemonstrated ability to build & evolve continuous dev-to-deployment pipelines for web/blockchain systems from scratchFamiliarity and experience with modern observability stack (e.g. Grafana, DataDog, Prometheus, etc...)Extremely high level of comfort in fast-paced environmentsDeep interest in blockchains and related technologiesBonusUnderstanding of or experience with the Cosmos ecosystem / cryptoHistory contributing to blockchain infrastructure (e.g. protocols, node clients, data relayers, indexers, etc..)
