About Floor
Our mission
Our mission is to make web3 accessible to everyone. Web3 will change the internet forever, but the tools here today simply wonβt cut it to welcome millions of new users.
Great products simplify complex new technologies and unlock their power for the world. We are building one of these products, bringing all of web3 together into a simple app you can take everywhere with you.
Floor is loved by tens of thousands of users in web3 today and weβre just getting started.
Who are we?
Floor is a team of ten web3 enthusiasts headquartered in NYC, and spanning the US & UK. Our founders have a proven track record, previously taking leading roles in building products like Venmo & Robinhood.
As an engineering team, we are intentionally small, and senior β a team of peers practicing strong ownership and open debate on how we should best solve problems and direct our efforts. If you enjoy that, you will enjoy Floor.
How do we work?
We believe that how we work is as much a product as what weβre building, and seek to apply the same agile ideals of continuous improvement to the entire company β our rituals, processes, and more.
As a small team, no role is βjustβ any one thing. We seek out co-workers with curiosity and passion for making everything around them better, and actively welcome those contributions, as well as your craft!
About You
What You'll Be Doing
All roles at Floor are at least a little bit generalist, with us each focusing in different areas at any given time. This is what you can expect to be doing in this role:
- β Be the technical owner for features end-to-end, including the systems that power those features, and entire parts of the product
- π’ Ship high quality, secure, and well-tested software
- π
Continuously improve our backend systems and APIs, and optimize our development process
- π Flex across systems and areas of the business as you see opportunity, or teams need help!
- π€ Collaborate with our ops & partnerships teams, as well as our users to respond, react & even change the plan based on user feedback!
- πΊ Work closely with our leadership team to define our product roadmap and strategy
- π Ship iteratively, and quantitatively, embedding metrics into everything we do
Our Tools
We don't expect you to come knowing all of these tools, but sometimes it's nice to know what to expect! Familiarity with these is a bonus:
- π TypeScript, NodeJS, PostgreSQL, and Redis form the basis of most of our services (of which there are ~8)
- π Our infrastructure is hosted by AWS, managed via Terraform with full separation between Staging & Prod
- β‘οΈ We use serverless (AWS Lambda) for stream processing blockchain data, and other realtime inputs to Floor
- π± Our mobile apps are totally native, built with Swift + SwiftUI, and Kotlin + JetPack Compose respectively. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the mobile codebases!
- π We use a mixture of Datadog, Cloudwatch, and PagerDuty to create a high standard of monitoring, alerting and run an on-call pager
- π¦ We use GitHub Actions to build Docker containers & deploy for CI/CD, and are always looking to improve our deployment pipelines
- π We use Mixpanel, and an in-house BigQuery warehouse for data intelligence, and integrating data back into the product
- π We write (mostly) RESTful APIs, and pursue pragmatism in everything we build
Your Experience
This is a senior role with huge impact at Floor. This is our best estimation of the experience that would make you successful, but we're always open to alternative paths to success!
- 7+ years of demonstrated experience delivering high quality software in startup, or large tech company environments
- 4+ years experience designing & building secure, scalable software with a microservice architecture
- Experience shipping production code using NodeJS (TypeScript is a plus) on AWS
- You've built for scale before, building systems that serve thousands of QPS, and are familiar with the tools & tradeoffs to balance speed, cost and scale
- You're curious, and have begun exploring web3 β professional experience is not required, but an understanding of the foundations will be important to success
The base pay for this position ranges from $160,000-$200,000, along with significant equity options, and best-in-class healthcare.
