Head of Engineering

P2P.org is the largest institutional staking provider with a TVL of over $10B and a market share exceeding 20% in restaking. We are continually focused on researching and improving our infrastructure to extract maximum APR while enhancing security. For instance, in ETH and SOL, our NRR is on average 10% higher than the market, and in DOT, it's 20% higher.

We also place significant focus and resources on launching new networks such as TON, Avail, Monad, Babylon, Story, Berachain, and others, along with yield products.

Our clients include Bit Go, Copper, , Ledger, ByBit, Bitget, OKX, HTX, Bitvavo, SBI, and others, who choose us for our client‑centric approach and extensive product line from unified API to widgets and custom dApps.

Despite our distributed team, we share a passion for decentralized finance – a fairer system for all. We code, learn, create, and connect to shape finance's future.
