Job Description

Hey it’s Tony - I’m the co-founder and CTO of Parasol.

I’m looking to bring on a founding software engineer to join the founding team at Parasol. Our entire team is technical and moves fast. Our team is made up of former YC founders, MIT researchers, Meta / Uber engineers, and builders that have grown businesses to $50M ARR from scratch.

We’re looking for an experienced, product-minded engineer to join us on the ground floor of building our products, community, and protocols. No solidity experience required - we’ll teach you the ropes if you’re looking to make the jump from web2 engineering to web3 engineering.

Examples of things you could be working on:

• Develop and maintain performant, scalable, and secure applications
• Write production quality code in Python, TypeScript, Solidity
• Write unit tests and high quality documentation
• Debug production issues across services and multiple levels of the stack
• Create tools to automate and optimize development processes
• Writing, auditing, optimizing smart contracts in Solidity to make our services more trustless and decentralized

Technology Stack

• Python: Django / Celery
• AWS, Docker
• React Native, Node.js
• Postgres
• Redis
• Ethereum, Polygon

You’ll be a great fit if:

• You love to tinker and build ️
• You’re interested in the potential for web 3 and crypto - crypto-curious to crypto-degens welcome!
• 3-5+ years of programming experience (can include side projects, academic work)
• Prior founding / startup experience
• Solidity experience is a huge plus (but not absolutely necessary if you have a great software development foundation)
• You are a K-Pop or J-Pop fan and would love the work with the biggest names in the industry.
