Job Description

Career Renew is recruiting for one of its clients an Infrastructure Engineer - this is a fully remote role and candidates can be based in N/S America.

Over the next 10 years, payment and financial services businesses will upgrade the movement of money and financial assets to blockchain-based networks.

We are on a mission to revolutionize the way people access and transact in the world’s most widely recognized and stable currency, the US Dollar. We believe that financial services should be a right, not a privilege, and that cost-effective, accessible financial services can make a profound impact on people’s lives, especially in regions where traditional banking systems fall short.

We are building a next-generation payments, asset management, and operations platform that’s purpose-built for the transmission of value on blockchain digital rails. The Company is led by Nick van Eck (former at General Catalyst for 4+ years) and Drake Evans (ex-lead engineer at Frax Finance, issuer of the second largest on-chain stablecoin).

What we’re building

Primarily, we’re building an engineering organization dedicated to excellence. We foster a culture of teamwork, trust, and high-quality output.

Our first product — a fully collateralized, freely tradeable USD stablecoin — will be launched soon. It will compete with existing market leaders but will differentiate through its value proposition, resource allocation, and go-to-market strategy. The stable’s collateral will be managed by VanEck, a major asset manager and ETF issuer (~$80B AUM).
