Our People We're a tight-knit team of experienced individuals at the forefront of crypto infrastructure. Our backgrounds range from security auditing and smart contract development to node operation, and we're supported by Pantera Capital, Paradigm and CyberFund.

We're on the hunt for talented professionals to join our mission and strengthen our awesome team.

As a fullstack engineer at Symbiotic you’ll take responsibility for all backend services, architecture, and reliability so the rest of the team can stay focused on new features and growth. Keep reading only if this sounds interesting!

This is a full-time role under a traditional employment agreement; we do not work with contractors. What You’ll Do:

Fully own the entire backend of Symbiotic: architecture, services, APIs, databases, performance, reliability, and observability

Design and build new services from scratch with zero hand-holding

Take complete responsibility for everything you ship: you are the go-to person for any question or issue related to your code

Ruthlessly focus on delivering maximum value; challenge requirements when needed

Write exceptionally clean, simple, and over-documented code

Jump into React frontend work whenever required (we’re a small team; speed > strict boundaries)

Proactively propose valuable features and improvements

Collaborate closely with the team, accept feedback openly, and mentor others when needed

Ensure everything is thoroughly tested and production-ready (monitoring, logging, error tracking, security)

Continuously improve performance, scalability, and developer experience across the stack

Who you are:

4+ years of production experience as a backend or fullstack engineer with deep ownership of services.

Expert in JavaScript and Node.js internals (event loop, streams, memory model, async primitives)

Proven track record independently designing and shipping complete backend services end-to-end

Strong production experience with modern Node.js frameworks (Fastify, Hono, Elysia, Express, NestJS)

Advanced PostgreSQL skills: schema design, indexing strategy, query optimization, transaction handling

Strong React + TypeScript frontend background

Docker-native, comfortable with CI/CD (GitHub Actions), basic Kubernetes knowledge

Obsessed with clean, simple, heavily documented code; you write extensive tests and love helping QA with edge‑case scenarios

Excellent at algorithms and data structures.

Startup mindset: you jump into frontend, infra, or anything else needed to move the product forward

Deeply care about business impact and always understand the “why” behind what you build

Bonus: Web3 experience (EVM, ethers.js/viem, RPC providers, indexing) or working knowledge of Go/Python

Attention Job Seeker! Job scams are unfortunately common in our industry. A few things to note:
