Who You Are:

This is a builder role with a research dimension. You'll move fluidly between deep technical exploration and shipping production-grade systems, working across the off-chain and infrastructure layers that make Edge's products operable for regulated institutions — validator and staking infrastructure, custody integrations, compliance automation, and the services that sit between on-chain protocols and institutional stacks.

You own your work end-to-end: architecture, implementation, and operability. You move ideas from research and prototype through to production without losing rigour, and you're comfortable operating with high autonomy in a fast-moving environment.

What You’ll Do:

Build and own off-chain systems

Design and build the off-chain systems and infrastructure that power Edge's on-chain products — validator and staking architectures, custody and key management integrations, compliance automation, and the APIs and services that connect institutional workflows to on-chain settlement.
Own deployments end-to-end: infrastructure-as-code, observability, audit logging, runbooks, and the SLAs that institutional clients depend on.
Take ownership of architecture and implementation, not just execution against a spec.

Research and design new systems

Move ideas from research and prototype through to production without losing rigor.
Contribute to technical research and help define the direction of new systems.
Engage with emerging on-chain primitives and assess how they translate into production-grade infrastructure for regulated institutions.

What We’re Looking For:

Strong fundamentals in distributed systems, backend engineering, and production cloud infrastructure.
Experience designing and operating systems with real reliability, security, and auditability requirements.
A track record of taking ideas from prototype to production with care and rigour.
Comfort working in a high-autonomy, fast-moving environment.
Working knowledge of blockchain systems — Ethereum, Solana, validator operations, or on-chain protocols — or a clear track record of picking up new domains deeply and quickly.
High agency, low ego. You own your work end-to-end and hold yourself accountable for quality.

Bonus Points:

Experience with regulated financial infrastructure, custody systems, or institutional capital markets workflows.
Background running validator infrastructure or staking systems at scale.
Familiarity with secure key handling, HSMs, or distributed systems at scale.
Prior work integrating with KYC/AML, treasury, or risk systems.

What We Offer:

Competitive base salary and discretionary bonus
Hybrid/Flexible Working Arrangements
Flexible Time Off (paid)
3% 401(k) company contribution
Company-paid health and protective benefits for employees, partners, and other dependents
Generous paid Parental Leave
Competitive family planning benefits for US employees
Opportunities to learn about the Crypto industry
Smart, entrepreneurial, and fun colleagues
Free daily snacks and weekly breakfasts/lunches
Employee Resource Groups
Free coaching and counseling sessions through Headspace
