Senior Backend Engineer – Finapps/Access

You'll design and build robust, scalable backend services that support high-volume on-chain transaction flows across multiple blockchain networks, both EVM and non-EVM. You'll own end-to-end development of backend components and APIs, from architecture decisions through production deployment. You'll lead integrations with DeFi protocols, on-chain data sources, and blockchain nodes across a wide range of chains and ecosystems. You'll research and evaluate emerging blockchain technologies, protocols, and standards to keep your work at the cutting edge. You'll optimize existing production systems for performance, reliability, and security, reducing latency and increasing throughput. You'll collaborate closely with product, protocol research, and platform engineering teams to deliver high-quality solutions on time, and you'll drive features from inception through delivery at scale, taking full ownership of the product lifecycle.
