Join Orca as a Senior Software Engineer (Backend)
Orca is on a mission to become the leading provider of financial primitives on Solana.

To accelerate our progress towards this vision, we are looking to add a senior software engineer to our team.

- Educational Background: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science or a related field.
- Balanced Mindset: Comfortable working independently in an asynchronous environment, but also enjoy collaborating as a team. Passionate about certain technologies and patterns, but recognize their trade-offs.
- Technical Skills: Experience with Rust is a plus but not required. Strong interest and proficiency in building high-performance backend systems.
- Interest in DeFi: Whether new to DeFi or an accomplished degen, you’re excited to create a more decentralized, equitable financial system.
What We Offer
