Our client is a well-funded Web3 fintech startup redefining the future of real-time financial infrastructure. Our platform bridges traditional finance and decentralized systems, enabling seamless, secure, and transparent access to blockchain-powered financial services. They’re not just building APIs — they’re creating the data rails for the decentralized economy, supporting everything from real-time transaction monitoring to decentralized asset management. With deep backing from top VCs and a founding team of fintech and blockchain veterans, we’re scaling fast — and we’re looking for core engineers to shape what comes next.

What You’ll Do

·      Architect, develop, and maintain real-time APIs and backend systems powering crypto trading, DeFi analytics, and digital asset tracking.

·      Manage streaming pipelines with Kafka to process high-throughput event data from blockchains and financial markets.

·      Implement WebSocket-based services using Bun to push live updates (price feeds, wallet events, smart contract logs).

·      Store and optimize time-series data using QuestDB for hot access and ClickHouse for long-term analytics and compliance reporting.

·      Secure and orchestrate APIs through APISIX, with features like rate limiting, authentication, and request transformation.

·      Contribute to infrastructure scalability, observability, and resilience in a mission-critical, high-uptime environment.

·      Collaborate with smart contract developers, frontend engineers, and data scientists to ship features end-to-end.
