In 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto introduced a white paper that can revolutionize the world. The disintermediation of financial institutions will lead to greater inclusion and a more efficient economy.

However, Bitcoin was invented a decade after PayPal, and there are a flood of other wallets and FinTech products. Competing with the global financial network is a formidable challenge.

Our mission is to make bitcoin useful by building use cases for things credit cards can’t do. Our users save 18% to buy anything on Amazon and more.

We also maintain bcoin, a fullnode bitcoin implementation designed for production.

Energized at the thought of joining a team of misfits while revolutionizing global payments? We’ve built a lean, elite team. That makes this a unique opportunity to build from scratch at a high growth startup with true product-market fit.

• Work on the latest in Bitcoin with experts in cryptography, economics, and technology.
• Get paid in bitcoin.
• Drink Soylent, Lacroix, and Beer for free.
• Earn Pre-Series A equity at an early stage start-up.
• Work in heart of the Mission, in beautiful sunny San Francisco.

Requirements

• Track record of shipping high quality projects under constraints
• Degree in computer science or related field preferred
• Passion for bitcoin

In case you are wondering what technologies we use at Purse, we’re built using a combination of Python, Javascript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, Cordova, & Docker.

Prior experience with these exact languages/technologies is not required.
