Job Description

Who we are

Our mission is to make privacy and user ownership the default online. To do so, we build simple, flexible APIs and tools for developers that make it easy to build new products on crypto rails. Privy owns the abstractions and infrastructure layer above wallets, integrating across chains, third-party providers, and Stripe products like Treasury and Link. We get to solve hard technical problems while leveraging Stripe's distribution to reach customers like Ramp, Klarna, Deel, Kraken, Hyperliquid, and Fomo — powering experiences for both mainstream users and crypto natives.

About The Team

Engineering at Privy is distinguished by

• High urgency—Shipping very small iterations, very fast, to learn very quickly


• Product taste—Our customers are developers, and to build effective products for them requires technical knowledge—you will often be \"the PM.\"


• Security mindset—A great portion of our product is trust. While we have a dedicated security team, every engineer brings security to their designs from the start.

In practice, we use boring technology like Node, React, and AWS so we can focus our engineering energy entirely on pushing the boundaries of Privy's core product, e.g. through hardware enclaves, multi-region low latency APIs, and blockchain abstractions that are accessible to mainstream developers.

What you’ll do

We're looking for an exceptional Forward Deployed Engineer to join our team and be the primary technical owner for building out new capabilities with Privy's most important customers. In this role, you will combine technical expertise with a deep understanding of customer and business objectives to architect, develop, and deploy software features that address customers’ needs and evolve the capabilities of Privy’s core products. Customer obsession is a core part of Privy’s culture. You’ll work closely with fellow engineers, product, and business teams to ensure Privy's customers achieve their desired outcomes and are delighted by our products.

Responsibilities

• Work directly with customers to understand their technical and operational objectives, scope requirements, and prototype and propose software solutions


• Design, code, and launch features that improve and innovate on Privy’s core product using tools like TypeScript, React, and Next.js, and own end-to-end development


• Drive product deployments, including configuration, testing, and troubleshooting


• Champion customer success, ensuring the team understands, prioritizes, and pursues customer feedback and pain points


• Dive deep into customer codebases to understand product usage and friction points, and uncover opportunities for improvements


• Partner with internal stakeholders to continuously align product roadmap and strategy with customer needs and objectives
