About The Team

In the financial services unit at Fireblocks, you will be responsible for designing, implementing and bringing to market software products for our financial services customers. We work in small, high-performing, fast-moving teams and we build intuitive, and easy-to-use applications while keeping a world-class security architecture.

As part of your role, you will be expected to find creative solutions to a variety of logical and visual challenges, working closely with our Product and Design teams to deliver new software systems to our customers. You will be able to demonstrate an understanding of the full development lifecycle, demonstrating this by your ability to lead brainstorming, ideation, research, and the development of software features and products.

We are looking for a "Builder" rather than just a developer. You will own features completely end-to-end. In this modern era of development, you should know how to effectively utilize AI tools to accelerate your velocity, while simultaneously acting as the ultimate gatekeeper of high quality, ensuring that highly sensitive, mission-critical code meets the highest standards of formal verification and security.
