Overview
Join the Institutional Engineering Team, a core group responsible for building secure, high-performance systems that safeguard digital assets for institutional and enterprise clients.
We design and deliver the next generation of crypto custody and settlement services, ensuring trust, transparency, and resilience at every layer of our platform. Our engineers are a globally distributed, mission-driven group focused on creating new, scalable services that form the backbone of our custody infrastructure — from key management and wallet orchestration to transaction pipelines and compliance systems. We combine deep backend expertise with a strong focus on security, reliability, and performance.
The team thrives in a collaborative, transparent, and Dev Ops-oriented environment, where technical excellence and innovation come together to redefine how digital assets are protected and managed.
If you’re passionate about secure system design, distributed architectures, and building solutions that truly matter in the crypto ecosystem, this is where you’ll make your impact.
