Role Intro

Ethereal is DeFi’s next major trading protocol and the first built on Ethena. Recently launching Testnet, we’re at $700M+ TVL on track to become a top 10 ecosystem. This is a rare opportunity to join a world class DeFi team.

We’re building a Perps DEX, which will handle over 1 million orders per second delivering CEX level performance, with on-chain security.

You’ll be part of an engineering-first team solving deep, complex problems that haven’t been tackled before. If you thrive in an environment about optimisation, distributed systems, and real-time performance at scale, this is your kind of challenge.

This is a remote team who work within AEST, strong preference for AU/NZ location, but all applications must be from timezones within GMT +7 and GMT+13.

About the Role

We’re hiring a Senior Backend Engineer to help design and optimise the core infrastructure across both an on/off chain EVM/Typescript architecture. You’ll be working on high-throughput systems that redefine execution speed and efficiency in DeFi.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Designing and implementing scalable, distributed backend systems to handle millions of orders per second.
  • Optimising for latency and performance
  • Working with event-driven architectures, real-time data pipelines, and high-throughput APIs.
  • Collaborating with front end and protocol engineers to build an entirely new class of DeFi trading infrastructure.
  • Ensuring fault tolerance, efficiency, and security across the platform.

What We’re Looking For

Essential Skills:

  • Strong experience in backend development using Node.js & TypeScript building applications that have proven to scale
  • Deep understanding of and experience with distributed systems - scalability, high availability, and performance tuning.
  • Strong experience with CI/CD, AWS.
  • Experience building or contributing to production DeFi or web3 projects.

Highly desirable:

  • Prior work with real-time trading systems or large-scale on-chain applications
  • Solidity/smart contract knowledge is not essential but a bonus.

Why Join Us?

  • Fully remote (AEST ± 3 hours)
  • Get paid on-chain (USD stables)
  • Work alongside world-class engineers building core DeFi infrastructure
  • Get early ownership in a protocol with $700M+ TVL and serious momentum
  • Solve complex, technical problems with real user impact
  • No politics - just sharp, curious engineers delivering fast
