About us

The our ecosystem is a self-sufficient DeFi economy utilizing stablecoins as currency. We currently have three: one pegged to the US dollar (FRAX), one pegged to the inflation of the US dollar (FPI), and one pegged to ETH (frxETH/sfrxETH) that earns yield from Ethereum staking (a liquid staking derivative). We have also developed unique swap (Fraxswap), lending (Fraxlend), bridging (Fraxferry) and other features for these. Additionally, we recently launched our own chain, Fraxtal (based on the OP Stack), with frxETH as the gas token. We are a top 100 crypto company by combined market cap (FRAX, FXS, frxETH, and sfrxETH).

We currently have 1 Senior Backend Developer, 1 Junior Backend Developer, 1 FullStack developer, and 1 Junior Frontend developer. We also have 5 Senior Solidity developers. We are looking for an experienced blockchain engineer for our Fraxtal chain, preferably one with OP Stack or similar rollup experience. The applicant must be selfguided, and will in return be given more technical freedom.
