Description
Job Description
Job DescriptionCompany DescriptionBlock is one company built from many blocks, all united by the same purpose of economic empowerment. The blocks that form our foundational teams — People, Finance, Counsel, Hardware, Information Security, Platform Infrastructure Engineering, and more — provide support and guidance at the corporate level. They work across business groups and around the globe, spanning time zones and disciplines to develop inclusive People policies, forecast finances, give legal counsel, safeguard systems, nurture new initiatives, and more. Every challenge creates possibilities, and we need different perspectives to see them all. Bring yours to Block.
Job DescriptionBitkey sits within the Proto team. Proto's purpose is to accelerate the world's transition to a more open economy by making products that increase access and independence for everyone. The first two initiatives we've identified that represent the biggest impact to this purpose are in the Bitcoin space with Bitcoin mining and Bitkey, a self custody Bitcoin wallet. While we're starting there, we don't believe the need for tools to increase one's independence is limited to bitcoin or the financial space. One principle across everything we do in Proto is open development – show and tell. We develop products in the open, you can read more about them at and
Building an entire product from scratch required hiring a team of senior engineers who could navigate the early days of defining the product requirements while also having an experience across a myriad of domains. These include important foundational items such as infrastructure and DevOps as these are essential to helping establish early architecture in a greenfield project.
Now that we've shipped the first version of our product, the team would like to have a deeper and dedicated focus on this work so that we can improve the overall experience for a growing team of engineers, and help them focus on building the product instead of fighting fires constantly. This person will sit closely with our product teams as their primary customer to help define the roadmap for our ongoing infrastructure. This role requires heavy collaboration with all of our disciplines including mobile, server, web, firmware, and security and will be critical to improving the success of our engineers and overall product.
