About Digital Asset & the Canton Network
Digital Asset builds the technologies that are reshaping the foundations of financial markets. Our mission is to create the world’s most trusted, privacy-enabled, and interoperable digital infrastructure for global finance.
At the heart of this mission is the Canton Network — the blockchain purpose-built for institutional finance. Uniquely combining privacy, compliance, and scalability, Canton enables real-time, secure settlement across multiple asset classes. Governed by the Canton Foundation with participation from leading financial institutions, it is the proven link between the promise of blockchain and the power of global finance.
Founded in 2014 and headquartered in New York City, with offices in London, Zurich, Budapest, Hong Kong, and Sydney — we are on a mission to transform finance — and that transformation is now playing out rapidly on the Canton Network.
If you’re interested in playing a crucial role at the intersection of traditional and crypto-capital markets and want to help bring the next trillion dollars of finance on-chain, join us.
Requirements- Proven engineering depth: You’re an experienced Frontend Engineer with strong React and TypeScript expertise, demonstrated through production-grade applications or meaningful contributions to open-source projects.
- Production focused: You’ve built, shipped, and maintained React applications in production environments and understand what it takes to make them performant, resilient, scalable, and user-friendly.
- Committed to sustainable, high-quality development: You care deeply about design systems, UX quality and clean component architecture. You back this up with strong testing practices and modern CI/CD tooling to ensure maintainable high-quality code.
- UI systems designer: You have experience designing reusable component libraries, modular frontend architectures, or scalable design systems. Understanding of web performance, state management or frontend security practices is a plus.
- Technical experience: You hold a Master’s or PhD in computer science (or related field); or bring equivalent experience that demonstrates deep technical skill and curiosity.
- Strong communicator: You can explain complex ideas clearly - in code, in writing, and in conversation. Experience writing technical documentation is a bonus.
- Financial prowess: Familiarity with financial systems, trading platforms, or fintech UI patterns is helpful but not required — an eagerness to learn and engage with domain challenges is equally valued.
