WHO WE ARE
Stork is a fast-growing platform offering high performance and composable oracle solutions for crypto-native applications. As the go-to oracle for top derivatives applications, we have facilitated over $300 billion in trading volume and work with leading decentralized protocols like Vertex, OKX, Gains, and Orderly. Now we are expanding to support additional verticals including decentralized options, lending, real world assets, prediction markets and more, as we build the industry’s first decentralized data marketplace to service the crypto community’s ever expanding data needs.
We recently secured $4M in seed stage funding from top crypto venture capital firms including FactionVC, Lattice, and CMS Holdings. Our fundamentally different approach to the Oracle problem, along with our ability to execute quickly has competitively positioned us to gain significant ground in the market. We are experiencing significant organic demand for our solutions while we simultaneously ramp up marketing efforts. We are securing multiple new partnerships per week in various verticals and are continuing to identify additional use cases for our technology.
We are a group of committed self-starters who are working to revolutionize the world of decentralized data, and we are keen to work with folks who share our passion. We are largely NYC-based and are eager to grow our team here.
WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR
Our aim is to thoughtfully grow to meet the intense demand of our increasing customer base, as well as our own immense aspirations as an organization. Joining now will give you pivotal influence over the direction and architecture of the product.
We want someone collaborative, yet independent; someone with strong convictions, but low ego; someone who has aspirations to grow within the role, and who may even eventually want to start something of their own.
As a Software Engineer at Stork, you will ideate, design, and implement solutions to a variety of engineering challenges ranging from business-critical features to core architectural patterns in an exclusively backend stack. An ideal candidate will be excited to move and iterate quickly, strategically leverage emerging web3 and other software technologies, communicate effectively, and draw from existing expertise to innovate in both greenfield and battle-tested environments.
