Backend Software Developer (Node.js)

About Us
We’re seeking to hire a talented React Front-End Developer to work on the best thing since sliced bread, in our own personal and biased opinion. Who’s “our/us”? We’re happy to share more information if you manage to make it past our gruelling and intimidating selection and interview process, but what we can say is that this is a skunkworks project by BCAS, a crypto regulatory/legal firm set up in 2017 and still going strong despite multiple Christmas lunches & dinners in which our family members told us that it’s a bubble that’s going to zero. We have built a solid reputation that’s backed by a proven track record and a client list that’s star-studded with the top names of the industry, and we are leveraging that experience and expertise to build a revolutionary RegTech SaaS product that will change the crypto-legal landscape. But don’t just take our word for it – apply and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can!
