Job description

Blockchain Indexing Specialist (SVM & EVM)

Location: Remote - Can do at least 4 hours overlap between 10am-6pm Brazilian time

Compensation: $220K - $300K

We are a leading real-time blockchain analytics platform serving over 5 million active crypto traders every month. Operating as a lean, high-impact team of 10, we provide the mission-critical data that the DeFi ecosystem relies on.

We are looking for a Blockchain Indexing Specialist to join our core engineering team. In this role, you won’t just be maintaining systems; you’ll be architecting the indexing layer for hundreds of chains and billions of transactions. Your mission is to ensure we remain the fastest platform in the industry by building high-performance, low-latency indexers that stay ahead of the curve.

Key Responsibilities:

• Scale Global Indexing: Build and maintain real-time indexers for 100+ chains, spanning both SVM and EVM environments.
• Master the SVM: Take full ownership of Solana indexing, ensuring high-fidelity data capture in one of the highest-throughput environments in crypto.
• Optimize for Speed: Obsess over millisecond improvements and system reliability to maintain our competitive edge.
• Production Excellence: Manage and scale production-ready, high-load environments that handle massive data spikes without breaking a sweat.

We are looking for a battle-tested engineer who has navigated the "dark forest" of blockchain data.

• Golang Mastery: Expert-level proficiency in Go is a non-negotiable. You should be highly comfortable building low-latency, high-concurrency systems.
• Solana Expertise: Deep, architectural understanding of the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM). Experience with Solana is an absolute requirement; you must understand its unique performance bottlenecks and nuances.
• Proven Track Record: You have built real-world, production-grade indexers from the ground up. You know how to handle reorgs, manage RPC stability, and ensure data consistency across distributed systems.
• Full-Stack Awareness: Proficiency in TypeScript for maintaining and integrating with existing services.
• DeFi Fluency: A strong grasp of DeFi primitives, including AMMs, order books, and liquidity pools.
• Crypto Native: You are deeply embedded in the ecosystem and understand the urgency of the 24/7 crypto markets.

• Impact: Work on a product used by millions in a small, elite team where every line of code matters.
• Full-Time Flexibility: This is a full-time contract position designed for long-term collaboration.
• Paid Technical Trial: We respect your time. Our technical "Take Home Test" (building a functional indexer) is a fully paid task.
• Lean Culture: No bloated meetings or middle management—just pure engineering and rapid shipping.

Due to the high volume of applications we anticipate, we regret that we are unable to provide individual feedback to all candidates. If you do not hear back from us within 4 weeks of your application, please assume that you have not been successful on this occasion. We genuinely appreciate your interest and wish you the best in your job search.
