Job Description

Our ideal candidate for this position is enthusiastic, has a solid technical foundation, learns quickly and can communicate well across teams. This is an excellent opportunity for a candidate looking to gain hands-on experience with a rapidly growing organization. If you are already in the crypto space, or if you want to get in, this could be the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.
