About Tensor

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.

What makes us special:

* We’re trader-first 📈 – our product looks and feels like a real financial tool * We’re the fastest ⚡️ – fastest UI, fastest discovery engine, fastest transaction speeds * We’re building advanced NFT-Fi primitives 🤯 * We’re product-obsessed 🚢 – go to tensor.trade/

and see for yourself!

* 📈 But do NFTs even matter? Remember that NFTs are so much more than art and profile pictures. They’re an entirely new asset class – digitally native and infinitely diverse.

We believe that today, and today only, we have the unique opportunity to define what trading looks like for what probably will be >50% of all digital assets. *

We’re backed by Placeholder, Solana Ventures, Alliance, Anatoly Yakovenko & Raj Gokal (co-founders of Solana), and other reputable angels & funds in the crypto space.

About the Role

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

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!)

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 * Strong fundamentals in statistics, math, or quantitative finance * Good intuition on when to move fast/break things vs when to move carefully * Proficient in at least one low-level language (ideally Rust or Go)

What you’ll get:

Generous ownership & stake in the company. We’re looking for owners 🤝

* A fast-paced, no-BS environment * Flexible working hours & hybrid schedule * Top-of-the-line M3 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.
