Sr. Software Engineer (Frontend, React)
- Full-time
Company Description
About Wind:
- Wind is a fintech company building a non-custodial payments app that makes sending and spending anywhere in the world, with near-zero transaction costs, accessible to everyone. Think Robinhood meets Transferwise (and a lot more).
- Traditional payment providers have undue control over users’ money. Users can have their accounts frozen, money locked in, and bear hidden fees. Access to these payment providers is limited which makes cross-border payments not only a hassle but also expensive.
- Wind will do all the things a traditional payments app does (add money, send/receive, cash-out, debit cards) and add crypto native functionalities like staking, yield, dApps. It is a wallet where you can send, store & invest in 4,000+ crypto assets and earn passive income on your balance by staking or suppling assets in DeFi apps.
* We're looking for Engineers and Designers to join us at multiple levels. We will have an open discussion throughout the interview process about assessing which level you fall within at Wind. *

- Distinctive team: Founders with a proven track record, top technical talent from around the world, and investors with deep experience in the space.
- Empowering role: You get a high growth and high impact role with the opportunity to grow
- Marquee investors: We have leading investors with deep experience in Fintech and Crypto.
- Market-leading compensation: If we like you, we will make sure you like our offer :)
- Purpose-built amazing office space in Banani 11.
Job Description
As a Senior Software Engineer (Front-End), you’ll be a respected thought leader, a high-productivity engineer, and a role model for other developers in the company and in our community.
You’ll work primarily in our main tech stack of Node.js, Web3.js, Ethereum/Polygon Blockchain, Java, PostgreSQL etc., with a focus on our front-end technologies such as JavaScript, React, Redux, and Next.js.
While this is a front-end focused role, all developers are at Wind.App strives to be cross-disciplinary, and you should be comfortable working in other parts of our technology stack.

Experience in our technology stack is a plus (Node.js, Web3.js, Ethereum/Polygon Blockchain, Java, Android, iOS), but not a requirement.
- A track record of leading and mentoring less experienced developers. You are eager to teach others and invested in the growth of your team.
- Self-motivating, self-directing, and a great communicator (written and oral). You thrive in an environment that grants you a lot of autonomy to explore creative solutions.
