Job Description

About the job

smlXL is a 'stealth' start-up building an Information retrieval service with Consumer and Enterprise applications. Our first focus is providing a far richer understanding of the semantics of blockchain activity, making data and information accessible and useful to all.

We aren't ready to talk broadly about what we are working on, but we might be a good place for you if:

You are highly technical; you care about your craft; you are constantly learning; used to working on baremetal servers and running your own stack, you are fascinated by Information Systems, Semiotics, and Blockchain data; you get excited by turning black boxes transparent; and you love working on things that add a ton of value to consumers and prosumers alike; or you are into the EVM, decompilers, databases, and distributed systems.

About You

• Experience keeping production systems running smoothly, experienced with working on private cloud/colo/bare-metal environments
• Experience building software and systems to manage platform infrastructure and applications
• Experience with and/or a desire to go deeper into blockchain technology and crypto protocols
• HashiCorp or Nomad experience is a plus
• You care about polish and adding value to our users but not perfectionism for perfectionism’s sake
• You love working collaboratively with different disciplines and learning from others
• You are an expert who stays curious with a beginner’s mindset
• You are a thoughtful communicator and collaborator and work to gain consensus with your peers and stakeholders, but you’re not afraid to speak up
• You want to win, but prefer to win as a team
• You are proactive
• You are thoughtful and open about your priorities, goals, and aspirations so we can help you achieve them
• You have specific passions outside of work
• We believe that on average it will take 5+ years of experience in an engineering role to get to the level we want, but don’t let that stop you

Benefits and Support

• Comprehensive health benefits (Medical, Dental, Vision, Life)
• Flexible working hours, flexible WFH policy and unlimited time off with approval
• Gender-neutral parental leave program for primary and secondary caregivers
• Competitive salary and equity compensation with 401K retirement plan options
