About Us
Pyrofex Corporation is changing the blockchain game and quickly growing a world-class team to do it
As Utah Valley’s first cryptocurrency startup, founded in 2016 by ex-Googlers Mike Stay and Nash Foster, Pyrofex is busy creating next-generation blockchain platforms that are simple, secure, and always reliable
We take pride in our work
We set high expectations for everyone, from our founders to each team member, and as a result we deliver extraordinary products and services
At Pyrofex, we hire for strength, not for lack of weakness
We hire for capability and talent
We hire people who have a passion for quality and innovation
Each team member achieves great things in an environment supporting both independence and collaboration
About You
You collaborate well with others to design and architect our complex systems
You take the amorphous sets of needs and use cases and distill these into written designs and specifications
You demonstrate a fastidious attention to detail, knowledge of your programming tools, and the ability to regularly produce working, correct code
Pyrofex hires engineers at all levels of experience—from current students to engineers with decades of experience
After all, one of our founders has a Ph
D
, and the other dropped out of college, twice! The path we’ve taken to get this far is unique and we suspect the same will be true of our best employees
We are most interested in hiring programmers with knowledge of functional programming, a background in computer science, and can program in Scala
However, if you think this job is for you, we’ll take a look
About the Job
Our Software Engineers will help us deliver various products and platforms, which are written in Scala, C/C++, Python, Rust, and JavaScript
The engineers on this team will design, implement, test, deploy, and manage a large-scale global software system using Linux and the JVM
Pyrofex builds cryptocurrency systems and large-scale distributed and decentralized applications
Five years ago, we thought things like SRE and DevOps would make it clear what “deploy and manage” meant for the future, but now we know we were wrong
The future is changing too fast and our job is to keep up
That said, from time to time, we all have to get out of bed at 2AM to deal with something broken
If this sounds good to you, then e-mail us at jobs@pyrofex
net with the subject line, “SIGN ME UP!” and your resume or linkedin profile
We would also enjoy a cover letter telling us about your work ethic and your favorite project
If you can send us examples of your code, that would be most excellent
