You might be a great fit for the role of Blockchain engineer if:

Curiosity and fearlessness are key ingredients. In short, you must be able to take on new technical challenges without much supervision.

You will engineer money-movement infrastructure, data pipelines, banking systems, and more. You will leverage the best of Afriex’s stack and build from the ground up when needed.

We’re looking for an empathetic person who doesn’t mind collaborating asynchronously, with the excellent verbal and written communication skills necessary to thrive in that environment. After it is safe to travel, we plan to bring the team together in person approximately once per quarter (but we won’t be doing that until it is safe).
