Member of Technical Staff, Protocols

At Anchorage Digital, we are building the world’s most advanced digital asset platform for institutions to participate in crypto.

Anchorage Digital is a crypto platform that enables institutions to participate in digital assets through custody, staking, trading, governance, settlement, and the industry's leading security infrastructure. Home to Anchorage Digital Bank N.A., the first federally chartered crypto bank in the U.S., Anchorage Digital also serves institutions through Anchorage Digital Singapore, Porto by Anchorage Digital, and other offerings.

The company is funded by leading institutions including Andreessen Horowitz, GIC, Goldman Sachs, KKR, and Visa, with its Series D valuation over $3 billion. Founded in 2017 in San Francisco, California, Anchorage Digital has offices in New York, New York;
Porto, Portugal;
Singapore; and Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Learn more at , on X @Anchorage, and on Linked In.

With the evolving landscape of digital threats and an increasing volume of sophisticated attacks by malicious actors, we have a security policy mandating all new hires complete an in-person onboarding process - no exceptions
. Security is our foundation and we prioritize physical identity verification and secure IT setup. While our security and IT logistics require physical presence to protect our infrastructure from sophisticated global threats, this move is equally about our Village culture. We believe that a laptop can be shipped, but our culture cannot.

The Protocols team is the back-end team at Anchorage Digital that works closest to the blockchain. We are responsible for developing cutting-edge digital assets on top of the latest blockchain technologies and working closely with product and design teams to build out DeFi, governance, and participation mechanisms with blockchains.

At Anchorage Digital, we want to support all the assets. This means there will always be a need to learn new blockchains, technologies and innovations, and integrate them into our ecosystem. With all existing and upcoming business lines, developing a scalable, reproducible, and reliable layer--that such business lines can use when interacting with the different blockchains--is critical. We are never “done,” we can always do better!

By joining Anchorage Digital, not only will you be a part of a top notch team, we also expect you to help the team grow as a whole. From your technical expertise and architecture skills, to mentoring teammates, we work as a team end to end.
