Short Description
We are looking for a Full-stack engineer who wants to build the product from the very beginning. Someone passionate about blockchain technology who is also motivated by significant challenges.
What will you do?
What is Embed?
Embed is a 'Community of Communities,' a network driven by the vision of developing and fostering personal and communities reputation.
This enables members and communities to capture and leverage the value they create, transforming reputation into a tangible asset, fostering an equitable exchange of value and data control within all participants of the network.
We aspire to a future where community-driven engagement yields direct economic benefit, fostering a fair and inclusive marketplace for all.
What is the product like?
The product consists on a blockchain protocol that allows:
Unlocking communities monetization: Capture community marketing spend from brands that seek to engage with communities.
Capture data and value, offer rewards: Capture members contributions to reward and recognize the most engaged ones.
Boost membership and equity: members unlock rewards related to the value that they contribute.
What is the challenge?
The biggest challenge is the complexity that exists on building a protocol that allows anyone to build applications on top of it. You will need to constantly remember that what you are building will be used by others to build their own applications. This implies that clarity, security and seamlessly user and developers experience are extremely important.
Also, we want to maximize the level of decentralization and the on-chain interactions of the protocol.
What are the expectations?
After 1 month…
Get your head around the product, understand its components and the entire tech stack.
Get fluid with AWS Serverless architecture and understand the design patterns behind it.
Contribute to the development of entire features from back-end to front-end.
Ensure that your implementations are stable and secure.
After 3 months…
Help the VP of Engineering on designing and implementing new features from scratch that involve the backend, frontend, and their interaction with smart contracts.
Play a key role in addressing technical debt and proposing development improvements.
After 6 months…
Take the lead in system architecture decisions and performance optimizations.
Influence the future direction of our architecture and technologies.
Your responsibilities
Design robust backend systems from scratch using AWS Serverless architecture.
Ensure scalability and reliability of all backend services.

How will you do it?
Your main interactions will happen with the VP of Engineering and the rest of the development team. You will also be involved with the company C-Levels in continuous updates.

The team operates with a self-organized working day, it promotes asynchronous and autonomous work.
Working Day: Full-Time
Holidays: 23 working days plus Spain’s bank holidays
Working hours: Flexible with common in-person hours
Where will you work?
We will provide an office space or a sharable desk at a Co-Working location.
