Description
What is the job?
Would you love to research deep into technical problems with the end goal of devising creative solutions and building complex APIs & SDKs from scratch?
You will be responsible for taking Figma prototypes & pre-defined network APIs to build and maintain web applications that interact with our brand new mobile wallet, backend infrastructure to connect web and mobile experiences, and SDKs and technologies that developers will use to create their own web applications that interact with our mobile app.
You will help define the way forward for DeFi as an industry; when it comes to deciding new paradigms for user experiences, authentication models, interoperability expectations, and the entire concept of user accounts whilst working at the very cutting edge of a space undergoing furious growth.
RDX Works is seeking a savvy full-stack development expert to join our Core Applications team to help build the tools that will define the future of decentralized finance (DeFi) and Web3.0 user experience.
What are we looking for?
- You’re a confident coder who likes to work at the user interface level, and you have built public-facing websites or applications in Typescript in the past.
- You’re a generalist, and have experience building REST services and/or WebSocket backends.
- You are a researcher and enjoy requirements engineering for SDK development.
- You like to actively shape designs and play with ideas as you build, and are comfortable iterating until it feels just right.
- You must also be able to isolate the 90% case for user experiences & in doing so, you can think in terms of making the most common interactions effortless, rather than making anything possible.
- You could be a great fit if our company values resonate with you - Ask for help, Get shit done. Be excellent to each other. Take the initiative, You’ve got this. Do the right thing, not the easy thing. Strong opinions, loosely held.
What do you need?
- You have demonstrable experience as a full-stack developer using TypeScript & NodeJS.
- You are comfortable using frontend frameworks such as React, Vue or Angular. (we are actually using Svelte!)
- You have worked with & developed SDKs.
- You are at home wrangling complex APIs (ideally WebRTC, WebAuthn, etc).
- You enjoy taking a research-focused approach and requirements gathering.
- You enjoy working in a multidisciplinary team with mobile engineers.
Who are we?
At RDX Works, we're a team of like-minded thinkers who have long been convinced that we're living in the earliest stages of a global financial revolution. This revolution is being fuelled by decentralized finance (or DeFi for short), which is enabling an assortment of pioneering developers and entrepreneurs to re-invent almost every financial product that is currently traded and invested in traditional markets, without requiring central authorities or siloed infrastructure. DeFi has captured a great deal of attention and investment in the crypto-aware niche, growing assets under management from $1 billion to over $200 billion in a few years. Impressive as its growth has been, its current market size isn't even a rounding error on the over $400 trillion held in traditional finance. We're focused on what it will take to go from billions to trillions.
RDX went back to first principles to come up with the right technical solution—the first layer-one protocol built specifically for mainstream DeFi—and we have already tested out at over 1 million transactions per second. We're keenly aware that the need for an infinitely scalable platform is only one prerequisite among many for mass adoption, and we're also blazing new ground in the areas of purpose-built developer tools, user experiences, and regulatory integration.
We have forged a path deep into the future of what distributed ledger technology is going to look like and we need you to come and be part of the team that is making that happen right now.

We understand that confidence gaps and imposter syndrome can get in the way of meeting incredible candidates and we wouldn’t want this to prevent us from meeting you; especially as we are big advocates of helping people learn & grow. This is also another reason we do not advertise salaries, we want to keep it as even a playing field as possible!
