  • Database Optimization: Optimize Clickhouse and PostgreSQL for large-scale data access, enhancing the performance and speed of our analytics solutions.
  • Team Collaboration: Manage a team of developers with clear ownership and accountability, working closely with cross-functional leads in DevOps, product, and full-stack development.
  • End-to-End Ownership: Oversee project lifecycles from conceptualization to implementation, ensuring scalable, reliable, and high-performing solutions.


Qualifications (Technical Skills):


  • 5-10+ years of software/data engineering experience, with proficiency in Rust or C+.
  • Blockchain and Solana Expertise: In-depth understanding of blockchain data structures, with a focus on Solana.
  • Clickhouse & PostgreSQL Mastery: Extensive experience with schema design, query optimization, and database performance tuning.
  • API and WebSocket Design: Expertise in building scalable API and WebSocket frameworks.
  • Serialization/Deserialization: Strong knowledge of binary serialization (e.g., Protocol Buffers) and efficient data processing techniques.
  • System Scalability: Experience working with terabytes of data, optimizing for high-volume, low-latency processing.


Nice-to-Haves:


  • Cryptography knowledge and experience with peer-to-peer networking.
  • Cloud experience (GCP/AWS) for scalable data processing and storage.
  • Monitoring and performance optimization for high-availability systems.


Personality and Soft Skills:


  • Effective Communication: Collaborate closely with cross-functional team leads, ensuring smooth project execution and team alignment.
  • Startup Mindset: Adaptable, with a “builder mentality” that embraces feedback, constructive criticism, and a passion for innovation.
  • Customer-Centric: Focus on delivering meaningful data insights for both B2B and B2C applications, with an emphasis on user experience.
  • Proactive and Self-Driven: Independently tackles challenges, driving projects forward with a high level of initiative and accountability.
