Job Description

**Tensor is the leading NFT Marketplace on Solana. We’ve done over $600m in
total traded volume, given back over $30m to our community, and serve over
300,000 traders every month.**

You’ll be at the ground floor of scaling Tensor for the next 1 million traders
and building the most sophisticated trading infrastructure & platform for NFTs
in the world.

### You will:

* Ship new products for NFT traders: faster data, more capital efficiency, advanced order types
* Optimize and scale our data pipelines to handle O(1-10K) transactions/second at peak
* Own projects end-to-end: from front-end to backend APIs to data pipelines to on-chain smart contracts
* Work with Solana’s state-of-the-art and fastest-in-crypto virtual machine, and write smart contracts in Rust 🦀

### You are:

* **Excited about web3/crypto/NFTs.** We really cannot overstate this - you’ll be joining a team of web3 nerds
* A generalist with 3+ years of experience working on large-scale, data-intensive apps
* Experienced with React, NodeJS, Postgres, Redis and Docker (if you have experience with other modern stacks that’s totally fine too, as long as you’re a fast learner!)
* Proficient in at least one low-level language (ideally Rust or Go)

### Bonus points for:

* Experience scaling data-rich consumer products, APIs & trading infrastructure to millions of users and O(terabytes) data
* Experience building real-time pipelines on AWS (Kinesis, Dynamo, SQS, RDS) and services on Kubernetes
* Experience optimizing React apps to handle hundreds of renders per minute
* Experience writing smart contracts (Solidity, Solana, or Move)
* Strong fundamentals in statistics, math, or quantitative finance
* Good intuition on when to move fast/break things vs when to move carefully

### What you’ll get:

* **Generous ownership & stake in the company.** We’re looking for owners 🤝
* A fast-paced, no-BS environment
* Architect the next generation of trading & financial rails
* Flexible working hours & hybrid schedule
* Top-of-the-line M2 Macbook Pro and peripherals

Our stack is Rust (protocol) / TypeScript (back-end & front-end), AWS,
Kubernetes and a bunch of distributed data systems (Kafka, RDS/Postgres,
ElasticSearch).

### Location

We’re remote-first. The founding team is in Toronto, and you’re welcome to
join us there, but you don’t have to.
