About Paxos

Paxos is on a mission to enable the movement of any asset, any time, in a trustworthy way. Today's financial infrastructure is archaic, expensive, inefficient and risky - supporting a system that leaves out more people than it lets in. So we're rebuilding it.

As a regulated blockchain infrastructure company, we use technology to tokenize, custody, trade, and settle assets for enterprise clients like PayPal, Bank of America, and Interactive Brokers. Paxos is a top-funded blockchain company, with more than $500 million in total funding from leading investors like OakHC/FT, Founders Fund, PayPal Ventures, and Declaration Partners. Together, we empower today's financial leaders to build a more open, trusted economy.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll get to:

• Design and implement high quality software from concept through to launch - taking ownership of design, coding, testing and deployment of key proprietary software components of our tokenized commodities platforms
• Apply engineering best-practices including unit and integration testing, source code version control, agile planning/estimation
• Resolve ambiguity, analyzing complex requirements and breaking down features and initiatives into tactical tasks
• Navigate the trade-offs among MVP vs Enterprise-Grade, Time-to-market and in other relevant dimensions
• Search for the truth in product conceptualization and development, ensuring designs and implementations are fully aligned with the company mission and product goals
• Work with a modern tech stack including technologies like Kotlin, Docker, and Kafka
• Collaborate closely other engineering teams, internal stakeholders, and clients
• Build a clearing agency
• Take on ownership of technical domains in a company that is growing in size and scope
• Immerse yourself in blockchain technology, cryptocurrency for enterprises and investors, our regulation-first approach, and more!

Your experience should include:

• 4+ years of software development experience, including at least one of the following: Golang, Kotlin, Rust, Java, C++
• 4+ years of experience designing, implementing, and maintaining distributed systems
• A degree in computer science or equivalent experience

You might already have:

• Mastery of core engineering concepts including data structures, design best practices, run-time optimizations, and algorithmic complexity
• Functional programming experience
• Solid understanding of concepts like load balancing, HA/failover, ingress, inter-service communications in a microservices style cluster, idempotence, ACID, guaranteed delivery, etc.
• Familiarity with digital-native online web application architectures and infrastructures, including clustering (Kubernetes), containerizing (Docker), message queuing (Kafka), etc.
