Permissionless nature leads to fragmentation of meaning
Decentralization leads to too many standards
Immutability leads to exponential data + query infrastructure complexity
Neutrality means that no one is accountable for interpretations
Blockchain data is public. It is not usable at institutional scale. Despite being open, blockchain data is fragmented, hard to interpret, and painful to maintain. Even a simple question like “Who are the largest Ethereum token holders over time?” can require running nodes, ingesting full chain history, decoding contracts, cleaning edge cases, and writing complex SQL.
They are built for consensus and execution, not searchability, standardization, or financial interpretation. Blockchains are computers, not databases. Every protocol defines its own schema. The same economic action can be encoded in dozens of different ways. The result:
Fragmented standards
Exponential complexity
No accountability for interpretation
Events without economic meaning
Finance cannot operate on that, it needs an effective system of record.
Allium ingests, verifies, and standardizes data across 140+ blockchains and 30+ petabytes of history. We close four structural gaps that prevent blockchains from becoming systems of record:
Semantic Gap: Translating raw events into financial concepts like payments, trades, deposits, and staking income
Standardization Gap: Mapping thousands of protocols into a single canonical cross chain schema
Infrastructure Gap: Read optimized, globally distributed data at web scale
Accountability Gap: Auditable methodology, SLAs, and SOC 1 and 2 compliance
The result is a neutral, canonical data layer institutions can build on with confidence.
Stablecoins, tokenized assets, trading, staking, and lending are growing rapidly. Institutions need a trusted source of truth for onchain financial activity, just as they rely on Bloomberg or DTCC in traditional markets. Raw blockchains cannot serve that role.
As AI agents begin transacting autonomously, the requirement becomes even stricter. Agents cannot reason over raw event logs. They need structured data, attribution, condition checks, and auditability.
Allium is the read layer that makes onchain finance usable for humans and machines.
Allium powers three core personas with the same canonical data foundation:
1. Finance, Accounting, and Risk TeamsThey need reliable, audit grade answers. They rely on Allium for financial reporting, reconciliation, compliance, risk monitoring, and defensible metrics that can stand up to auditors and regulators.
2. Engineers and Product Teams They need low latency, production ready infrastructure. They use Allium to power wallets, trading systems, payment rails, staking infrastructure, and real time applications that cannot break.
3. Strategy, Research, and Executive Teams They need clarity and insight. They use Allium to understand ecosystem economics, market structure, user behavior, competitive dynamics, and where capital is flowing onchain.
and of course.. agents 🦞. Our customers and users include Visa, Stripe, G-SIB Banks, Big 4 Accounting firms, BCG, Coinbase, Phantom, Uniswap and cited by the Federal Reserve.
Allium builds data-dense, information-heavy products for some of the most advanced teams in crypto and finance. We ingest millions of on-chain events, normalize thousands of schemas, and surface insights that help everyone from protocol teams to hedge funds understand what’s actually happening on-chain.
We’re hiring our first designer — a Founding Product Designer who loves making sense of complexity and wants real ownership. You’ll define the design language, systems, and standards for Allium’s product surface area, while shaping how customers explore, visualize, and act on blockchain data.
This role is for a designer who gets energy from working with messy datasets, building intuitive interfaces for sophisticated users, and crafting visual systems that scale across charts, dashboards, workflows, and power-user tools. You’ll have a seat at the table on product direction and the opportunity to build the design function from the ground up.
End-to-end product design ownership — Build experiences from high-level information architecture down to micro-interactions, UI states, and visual polish across complex data workflows.
Craft high-fidelity data visualizations — Turn intricate on-chain behavior, market dynamics, and messy datasets into intuitive charts, dashboards, and exploratory surfaces.
Design with deep technical context — Work closely with product, engineering, and data teams to understand schemas, query outputs, and system constraints, then translate them into usable, elegant interfaces.
Build Allium’s first design system — Define components, patterns, chart styles, color systems, and layout structures from scratch, ensuring consistency across a rapidly expanding product suite.
Prototype new interaction models — Explore novel ways to help users navigate chain abstractions, wallet flows, cross-protocol analytics, and large-scale entity relationships.
Establish design culture from day zero — As the founding designer, shape rituals like crits, reviews, collaboration workflows, and documentation standards for future design hires.
Drive usability and iteration cycles — Run rapid feedback loops with power users to ensure clarity and intuitiveness across dense, analytical interfaces.
Partner cross-functionally — Collaborate with growth, marketing, and customer teams to understand user workflows and translate insights into product improvements.
Elevate visual expression — Push Allium’s product aesthetic toward precision, trustworthiness, and technical excellence.
Deep experience with data-rich products — 5+ years designing dashboards, analytical tools, financial interfaces, or complex technical workflows.
A portfolio that shows mastery of complexity — Clear examples of turning dense, noisy, or abstract information into legible and intuitive UIs.
Domain familiarity — Experience in crypto, fintech, trading, analytics, or financial data products — or the ability to learn these domains incredibly fast.
Power-user UX sensibilities — Comfort designing advanced filters, fast workflows, keyboard interactions, and dense-but-readable layouts.
Strong UX clarity instincts — Ability to simplify without losing precision and organize information for highly analytical users.
Cross-functional fluency — Ease working alongside engineers and data teams; comfort with schemas, edge cases, and product-level constraints.
Design systems expertise — Experience creating reusable component libraries that scale across multiple surfaces and use cases.
Clear communication & low-ego collaboration — Ability to articulate design decisions and work closely with product, engineering, and GTM partners.
Curiosity for crypto & data systems — Interest in how on-chain systems behave, or a drive to understand the space deeply.
Crypto analytics experience — Explorers, dashboards, trading tools, attribution systems.
Visualization or HCI background — Especially experience with complex visual or analytical interfaces.
Technical fluency — Comfort with SQL, data tools, or charting libraries.
Founding designer experience — Thrived as a first design hire or built design processes from scratch.
Systems-thinking mindset — A fascination with abstractions and the craft of turning complexity into understanding.

Obsessiveness - The best people at Allium cannot put a problem down once they pick it up. We care more about the work than is strictly rational. Institutions trust us because our data is right. Right means caring about the small things. The decoded contract that ships with one wrong field. The label that is 99% accurate but wrong on the address that matters. The query that runs in 4 seconds when it should run in 400 milliseconds. Most companies tolerate these. We do not.
Obsessiveness shows up as depth of care. It is not measured in hours worked or visible effort. You should feel something physical when work ships half-right. That instinct is what we hire for.
Pro Athlete Mindset - Consistency. Day in and day out, in pursuit of excellence. A win yesterday does not guarantee (or even imply!) a win tomorrow. I hope anyone who supports a failing sports team will feel the pain (cough Man United fans) of inconsistency
Figure It Out & Extreme Ownership - Every day is unexplored territory. There are new engineering frameworks, new legal docs, new compliance, new sales, new regulations, and new operational procedures every single day. If you don’t know it, learn it. If you can’t learn it, find someone or a product that does it. If you can’t find someone, find someone who can find someone. It is never lack of resources, but lack of resourcefulness.
High Agency - (One of) the highest commonality between all successful people is their responsiveness, most successful billionaire CEOs still reply to emails within minutes (within working hours). And when you reply, respond fast with effective solutions - and even better, resolutions. If you’re looking for a superpower, you can’t go wrong with responsiveness. Well of course this doesn't make sense when you're an engineer coding in flow, but in general high agency of problem solving gets one very far in life
Leading from the Front - No one is going to listen (and adopt) your suggestion unless you lead by example. It’s one thing to say We need to do XYZ this better & it’s another thing to build an MVP and say “This is the way we should do things”. The proof of work and momentum goes a long way.
Strong Opinions On the Future (loosely held) It is okay to be wrong, but what is not okay is not to have an idea of how a better future should be. Alliumites take pride in trying to improving everything about the company all the time.
Sense of (allium) business smell - There are number of folks who live to eat at Allium, but the Allium smell we are talking about is that we love folks who naturally want to know why and how the work they are doing builds leverage for their teammates and also relates to the business goals
We invite people of all backgrounds (https://www.allium.so/about). We have engineers who learnt coding much later in life, who learnt coding on the side, we have engineers who are still in school and we also have engineers who went to the top schools (CMU, Stanford, UIUC, UPenn, Oxford, NUS, Cornell), all are welcome if one comes in with a curious mind and an infectious work ethic.
Medical, Dental, Vision, Life and AD&D insurance - US folks get 100% coverage for Gold plans, 80% for dependents
Ownership - Meaningful early-stage equity. Every full-time employee receives a stock option grant so you can share directly in Allium's upside
Time off - Flexible, trust-based paid time off. We encourage people to take the rest they need. In every country we hire, our policies meet or exceed local statutory vacation requirements
Retirement - Company sponsored 401(k) plan in US so you can save pre-tax for the long term
Note: The sun never sets on Allium - we hire from any geographical location as long as you are willing to overlap 2 hours overlap on NYC mornings Mon-Thurs from 10am-12pm ET. We have people based in New York, Seattle, Singapore and Australia
