Integrations Engineer

Orca is the most user-friendly AMM DEX on Solana. We’re looking for an Integrations Engineer to help developers build on Orca. As one of the leading DeFi apps on Solana, we offer a unique chance to shape the culture of the broader DeFi ecosystem.

Never built on Solana before? No problem — as long as you have strong engineering fundamentals, we can teach you what you need to know. (Most of the devs on the Orca team had never worked in web3 before!)

About our team:

• A lean team of 12-15 senior contributors based across multiple timezones
• Fully remote and location-agnostic
• Passionate about bringing a human touch to DeFi

What you'll do:

• Contribute code to our widely-loved open-source TypeScript SDK
• Help participants in the Whirlpools Builders Program integrate Orca through the Whirlpools SDK or direct CPIs with the Rust + Anchor smart contract
• Improve the Orca developer experience, from creating educational content to running workshops
• Provide input on Orca's roadmap and contribute to our lively remote culture
• Spend most of your (work)day coding and connecting with teams... on your schedule!

What you bring

• Excitement to work with builders on projects in DeFi, NFTs, gaming, analytics, and more
• An appreciation for well-architected code
• Curiosity to learn about and the confidence to quickly get up to speed with new projects
• Excellent writing and communication skills
• Resonance with Orca’s brand values (professional, principled, and playful 🐳)

Bonus points if you have...

• Used Orca for trading and/or liquidity provision
• Participated in DeFi, especially the Solana ecosystem
• The ability to speak multiple languages
• An appreciation for cheesy marine puns

Details of the role

• Base salary in USDC + future ORCA governance tokens
