Frontend Engineer (Web3)

Why Recursive Labs?

The internet promised a democratic future that uplifted individuals. Instead, big tech has created a modern surveillance state, corrupt governments routinely track and oppress their citizens, and corporations exploit human creativity for profit. The technology that promised to empower us all is being used against us.

If you are a natively curious person who was drawn into tech through the promise of creating tools for a more exciting future, but find yourself dismayed with the fact that the world’s smartest engineers are spending their lives optimizing how frequently we click on ads, this is your opportunity to change that.

Join us at Recursive. We’re building a future that re-centers the individual in the internet, creating a disintermediated global economy. If you want to work with an aggressively ambitious team, create tools that will control billions of dollars, and participate in the asymmetric financial upside of creating foundational internet infrastructure, come help us build the future of finance.
