Description:
WHO WE ARE
Stork is tackling one of the biggest opportunities in web3-reliable and verifiable data. By facilitating the secure and efficient exchange of cryptographically provable data for on- and off-chain developers, Stork solves this data provenance problem at scale. Whoever cracks this challenge will help define the future of data ownership for web3, as well as for legacy use-cases.
We've already become the go-to oracle for top decentralized finance applications, and our fast-growing platform offers composable, cryptographically provable data infrastructure for a host of crypto-native use cases. Our fundamentally different approach to the Oracle problem, combined with our ability to execute quickly, has positioned us to gain significant market share. We see major organic demand, ramped-up marketing efforts, and new partnerships emerging weekly. We're a group of committed self-starters revolutionizing decentralized data, and we want teammates who share our passion. We are NYC-based and eager to grow our team here.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
Our aim is to thoughtfully grow to meet the intense demand of our increasing customer base, as well as our own immense aspirations as an organization. Joining now will give you pivotal influence over the direction and architecture of the product.
We want someone collaborative, yet independent; someone with strong convictions, but low ego; someone who has aspirations to grow within the role, and who may even eventually want to start something of their own.
As a Software Engineer at Stork, you will ideate, design, and implement solutions to a variety of engineering challenges ranging from business-critical features to core architectural patterns in an exclusively backend stack. Code speed and efficiency are key - but not to the detriment of moving the product forward. An ideal candidate will be excited to move and iterate quickly, strategically leverage emerging web3 and other software technologies, communicate effectively, and draw from existing expertise to innovate in both greenfield and battle-tested environments.
