From a business perspective, the ledger provides a structured and organized system for recording and aggregating transactional data.

• A strong problem solver with a proactive mindset
• A collaborator who is capable of creating alignment with technical and non-technical stakeholders alike
• Comfortable working heads-down or tag-teaming problems
• Strong coding skills, preferably in Go
• Ability to debug issues or, better yet, foresee problems and avoid them entirely
• Experience with IDLs (e.g., protobuf), RPC frameworks (e.g., gRPC), cloud platforms (e.g., GCP ), and relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL )

Who You Might Be(Nice-to-Haves) :

• Experience in the financial services or accounting industry
• Experience with distributed systems / databases
• Experience with event driven systems and messaging brokers (e.g., Redpanda)
