Senior Software Engineer - remote from Europe

Freelancer, Full-time · Remote

What you will do

Location: Remote (Offices in London & Lisbon)

Company: Gnosis Pay

Mission

Gnosis Pay is revolutionizing payments with the first Decentralized Payment Network (DPN), starting with the first self-custodial debit card. We’re bringing web3 to the traditional finance world.

Our first step is enabling smart contract-linked debit cards that work everywhere debit cards are accepted.

This will allow crypto holders to seamlessly spend their assets in daily life, without needing to cash out through an exchange. Crypto will become a viable payment option for real-world transactions.

Who are we

Our team has deep experience in both traditional payments and decentralized products, like the most popular smart contract wallet Safe, now securing $50B+ assets. Now we are leveraging that expertise to integrate Web3 and traditional systems in a novel way.

We're a global team united by a bold vision.

While we're distributed, we maintain a tight-knit culture. We look for people who are collaborative, think big, but stay grounded.

Technology

Our stack utilizes TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Docker, Solidity and more.

To enable crypto card issuing and payments, we leverage:

TypeScript for scalable backend services
PostgreSQL for transaction data
Docker & Nomad for deployment
Safe for Smart Accounts
zkEVM L2 on top of Gnosis Chain
Solidity
Hardhat

There are hard technical challenges around reliability, security and scale. We need talented engineers to help us solve them.

What you will do:

There are two main tracks for this position:

Payments Processor focus:
You'll be working on the infrastructure between the legacy payments systems and Safe. Your job will make sure these two worlds are coherent. We think you'll enjoy this if you're someone who likes to:

Think about risk and software architecture
Write meticulous unit tests
Love thinking about the best patterns to solve a particular problem
Prefer to focus on high scalability and security

App Focus:
The consumer focus devs work more on releasing novel use cases built on top of the card, work on the consumer facing dashboard and onboarding flows.
We believe this type of person loves to:

Ship fast - Work on multiple parts of the stack
Build delightful user experiences
Rapidly iterate based on user feedback

In both tracks, you will:

Work with the entire engineer team
Use typescript
Create observable system
Continuously improve the infrastructure and architecture
Document systems and share knowledge across teams
Monitor and enhance reliability and performance

Who you are

Customer obsessed - You always advocate for what's best for the user.
Systems thinkers - You can understand complex systems and simplify them.
Masters of their craft - You relentlessly hone your skills and learn new ones.

What we can offer you

Besides a competitive salary you will be covered with both Health and Pension Scheme
Our annual leave allowance is a generous 25 days plus Bank holidays
We share a friendly, comfortable and informal office environment in Central London
We have flexible working hours, as long it suits both you and your team
Do you like to work and travel? We gather the team once a year for a retreat somewhere sunny
And do not worry about your equipment and subscriptions. We’ll equip you with the latest hardware and provide you with all the tools you need!
But most important - grow with us! We’re growing rapidly, the industry is expanding fast, and we have a lot to do. If you’re someone who loves taking initiative and getting things done, there are a lot of opportunities for you at Gnosis Pay. We’re enthusiastic about our shared mission and enjoy spending time together!

About us

Gnosis boasts an unparalleled track record of experimentation and building decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem. When Gnosis was founded in 2015, it focused on building prediction markets to enable worldwide access to accurate information. Today, as a DAO, Gnosis uses the products that it creates to transparently guide decisions on the development, support, and governance of its ecosystem. Safe, Cow Protocol, Conditional Tokens, Gnosis Auction, Zodiac, Agnostic Relay, and MEV Blocker are all products and protocols incubated by Gnosis.

In November 2021, the xDai and GnosisDAO communities voted to combine their vibrant ecosystems to create the Gnosis Chain, an EVM compatible, community owned network that prioritizes credible neutrality. Secured by over 200k validators around the world, Gnosis Chain ensures a secure and resilient infrastructure. Users and developers on Gnosis Chain can also take advantage of familiar tooling and trust-minimized bridges to the Ethereum mainnet. Gnosis Chain employs the same execution and consensus layer clients as Ethereum, ensuring seamless integration with all future EIPs.

Most recently, we launched Gnosis Pay, the first decentralized payment network allowing web3 developers to integrate with a range of traditional payment schemes including Visa. Gnosis Pay allows users to spend their digital assets anywhere Visa is accepted with the same quick, seamless transactions they expect from a traditional debit card.

Embrace the future of decentralized technology with Gnosis Chain, and join us as we continue to shape the next generation of web3 advancements. Together, we are building a decentralized ecosystem that empowers users and fosters global innovation.
