👋 Hey there
We're Gelt, the first high yield savings app entirely built on DeFi!
We are assembling a world-class team to build the next generation of decentralized financial products. If that sounds like your calling too, read on!
💬 About us
Founded in early 2021 by two Y Combinator alumni, Gelt is the first insured decentralized savings product that is as easy to use as a traditional savings account. We’ve recently closed our seed round and are backed by Village Global (the fund backed by Gates and Bezos), NFX (DoorDash, Lyft), Jump Capital (BlockFi, M1 Finance), Alliance (SushiSwap, dYdX) and high-profile angels.
🚀 Your role
You'd be joining the founding team with a focus on developing core infrastructure and company-wide internal tools in tandem with our CTO and VP of Blockchain Engineering. This would involve combining on-chain and off-chain data (no prior experience with smart contract development required). Depending on your appetite, your responsibilities could expand significantly.
Areas you'd own
- Real-time user earnings monitoring service.
- Monthly user earnings statement generation and notifications.
- Internal platform to track and adjust insurance coverage of on-chain funds.
You’d be a great fit if
- You’re a generalist who easily adapts to new scenarios and technologies. You go all out to use your knowledge to find the right solutions for the problems at hand.
- You’re passionate about building products from the ground up in a tight-knit team with a strong focus on collaboration.
- You have 3+ years of experience developing web apps and shipping user-facing features.
- You have a strong command of modern JavaScript or TypeScript, HTML, CSS and a component-based UI framework.
- You’ve designed and implemented backend services using Node.js or Java (Spring).
- You’re no stranger to PostgreSQL and Redis or other relational & in-memory databases.
- You have hands-on experience with a cloud platform, Docker, Bash and Linux.
- First-hand experience using blockchain, cryptocurrency and/or DeFi products is a bonus!
🙌 Our offer
- Play a key role in democratizing DeFi, with your work directly impacting company trajectory.
