What is Web3?

It’s the vision for a new, blockchain-based web includes cryptocurrencies, NFTs, DAOs.

For the past 2 years, we have been serving users in Web3 with our innovative analytics aimed at providing clarity to users in DeFi (Decentralized Finance).

Our first product, APY Vision, has won many grants from trusted brands in the Web3 ecosystem and we are looking for a Senior Data Engineering Tech Lead to be on the ground floor and take the product to the next level.

We’re inspired by our shared passion for developing creative solutions to complex challenges and empowering the people around us to do their best work. We are industry leaders in the blockchain analytics space propelled by constant curiosity and diverse perspectives.

We are looking ahead, building what’s next, and continuously reinventing the Web3 data analytics industry. Shape a rapidly scaling industry with us.

We are growing quickly, and we’re looking for a Senior Data Engineering Tech Lead to join our core platform team. If you are looking for a challenge and want to shape the future of Web3, please come to talk us (although Web3 experience is preferred, it is not a requirement as we can get you up to speed when you start).
