About the Role

As the senior engineer in our Crypto Intelligence Engineering team, you’ll be working in the heart of Elliptic, building a platform for our intelligence organisation to efficiently and robustly collect intel on crypto crime.

The mission of your new team is to scale the collection efforts of Elliptic. Streams of intelligence come from myriad sources: external feeds, internal automation, internal analysis, client submitted data. It all needs to be classified, stored, and reviewed, before it can be processed into our market leading proprietary graph database.

You will work with two other engineers - and with our technical founder - to create tooling, optimise processes, and remove bottlenecks in these intel pipelines.

Key Responsibilities

What you will do

Design and build software tools to improve and enhance our intelligence collection and analysis efforts. Examples of such tools range from compiled build-and-load programs up to browser extensions and web applications.
Develop software to analyse and interpret cryptocurrency usage behaviours and trends on the clear and dark web
Implement observability mechanisms (we use DataDog) to detect problems in your environment(s), and run the associated business processes to resolve
Work with the existing engineers on your team to foster their growth and development, and facilitate best practices, through mentoring and coaching
Be highly opinionated about the engineering strategy of your team, and a key contributor to the same.
