Front End Engineer - Defi

The blockchain engineering team at the company is looking for a talented front-end engineer to do foundational development work by helping to define and deliver against a coherent product roadmap.
As a Front End Engineer, we are looking for someone who is motivated to combine the art of design with the art of programming. Responsibilities will include translation of the UI/UX design wireframes to actual code that will produce visual elements of the application. You will work with the UI/UX designer and bridge the gap between graphical design and technical implementation, taking an active role on both sides and defining how the application looks as well as how it works.
As a team member, you would be responsible for creating technically viable software with a team of senior engineers specializing in DevOps, distributed systems, system architecture, testing, and other related fields. You would be collaborating with some of the most diligent minds in the cryptocurrency industry on product direction, both on the company's core team and among its partners, investors, and advisors.
As an early team member, you must feel comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where the solutions aren’t already predefined.
You should have prior experience in developing high-quality front-end architecture and some passing knowledge of how architecture principles should apply even in front-end frameworks you have not used before. You should be willing to dive into totally new front-end protocols if necessary.
