Dragonfly is a crypto‑native Venture Capital and research firm with $4B+ in assets under management and 160+ portfolio companies (see list). Our Talent team works to support the recruiting efforts of the companies within our portfolio by connecting them with talented potential candidates.
What We’re Looking For- 5+ years of software engineering experience
- 1+ years as a tech lead or Engineering Manager
- Experience owning core systems or features in high‑growth or early‑stage environments
- Strong product instincts, especially around UX and user onboarding
- Comfort working across the stack (Type Script, React, Next.js, APIs, infra, etc.)
- Bonus:
Experience in consumer crypto, gaming, or embedded SDKs
The Role
- You’ll join as the first engineering hire at a live, crypto‑native product with a growing user base and significant protocol volume.
- You’ll lead development across the core app, SDKs, and third‑party integrations. This includes building seamless web experiences, scaling across chains and platforms (including wallets and Telegram), and enabling developers to build on top of the protocol.
- You’ll work directly with the founding team on product, architecture, and roadmap.
If this role isn’t the right fit, we’re also hiring engineers across the portfolio, especially those interested in crypto infrastructure, developer tools, or zero‑to‑one product builds. Many of our portfolio companies are looking for founding or early‑stage engineers ready to ship and own core systems.
Process- We’ll confidentially match you with portfolio companies aligned with your background, skill set, and interests. If mutual interest exists between you and a team, we’ll facilitate a warm introduction.
- If there isn’t a match today, we’ll keep you top of mind for future opportunities.
Our portfolio companies are globally distributed, hiring for remote, hybrid, and in‑person roles worldwide. They’re building across the entire crypto ecosystem, including DeFi, CeFi, infrastructure, L1s and L2s, creator/consumer applications, NFTs, ZK, and more. All candidate submissions are strictly confidential.
Submit your information below, and we’ll be in touch if there’s a potential fit.
