About SCRYPT
SCRYPT is a Swiss-based institutional digital asset partner behind firms starting or scaling their digital asset journey. Headquartered in Zug, we combine market access, proprietary technology, and Swiss regulatory oversight to enable institutions trade, custody, and invest in digital assets with confidence.
We serve banks, brokers, fintechs, payment service providers, family offices, asset managers, hedge funds, crypto projects, and commodity traders - institutions that require high-performance execution and a trusted partner for digital assets.
About the Role
We're building customer-facing crypto and trading products that need to feel fast, trustworthy, and intuitive, in an industry where most interfaces are either overwhelming or underwhelming. We're looking for a full stack engineer who lives primarily on the frontend but isn't afraid of the backend. You'll own the end-to-end experience of what users see and interact with: trading dashboards, portfolio views, compliance-facing reports, and internal operational tools. This means working directly with TypeScript and React to build interfaces that handle real-time data, complex state, and high-stakes financial information without breaking a sweat. You have a strong eye for what makes a UI feel right in a financial context, data density, latency perception, error states that don't panic users, and you bring the same rigour to frontend architecture that a backend engineer brings to API design. Experience with data visualisation libraries (D3.js, Recharts, Plotly) is a strong plus; we have a lot of data and users who need to understand it quickly.
You're full stack in the practical sense: you can build and own a Node.js API when the feature requires it without needing someone else to do the plumbing. You understand how blockchain data sources work, pulling from APIs like The Graph or Dune Analytics, and you know the difference between what the chain says and what the user needs to see. You have working knowledge of identity and access management (OAuth 2.0, OIDC, MFA) because auth in a crypto platform is not an afterthought. You're comfortable with event-driven patterns and understand why a trading UI that polls every second is a different problem than one that subscribes to a real-time stream. You think about portfolio metrics, risk display, and mandate constraints not as abstract requirements but as real decisions that affect how users trust the product.
You take ownership of what you ship beyond just writing the code. You care about how a feature performs in production (latency, rendering, error rates) and you know how to investigate when something feels off. You use AI coding tools (Copilot, Cursor, or equivalent) to move faster, but you treat generated UI code with a critical eye, you know that a component that looks right can still have broken state logic, accessibility issues, or edge cases that only show up with real financial data. You're fluent in English, written and spoken, because this role involves working closely with compliance, legal, and operations stakeholders who need to understand what's being built and why. You thrive in environments where the requirements are sometimes ambiguous, the pace is real, and ownership means more than just closing tickets.

- Build and wire up Node.js APIs when features require backend support
- Integrate blockchain data sources and APIs, translating on-chain data into meaningful user-facing information
- Implement and maintain identity and access management flows (OAuth 2.0, OIDC, MFA)
- Work with real-time data patterns (WebSockets, event-driven streams) to ensure trading UIs reflect accurate, live information
- Monitor production performance - latency, rendering, error rates - and investigate when something feels off
- Review all code, including AI-generated output, with a critical eye for broken state logic, accessibility issues, and edge cases
- Collaborate directly with compliance, legal, and operations stakeholders to ensure what's being built meets regulatory and business requirements
Job requirements
- 3+ years of software development experience, ideally in fintech, crypto, or trading environments
- Expert-level TypeScript/JavaScript; React with Redux or equivalent state management
- Node.js backend experience, enough to build and wire up an API when the feature needs it
- Working knowledge of blockchain data sources and APIs (The Graph, Dune Analytics, etc.)
- Familiarity with OAuth 2.0, OIDC, and MFA implementation
- Understanding of real-time data patterns and how to reflect them accurately in UI
- Comfortable using AI coding assistants (Copilot, Cursor, etc.) to accelerate development, and confident enough to critically review what they produce
- Bonus: data visualisation with D3.js, Recharts, or Plotly
- Fluent written and spoken English
- Why choose SCRYPTOwn the user experience for institutional crypto products, trading dashboards, portfolio tools, and compliance interfaces with real users and real stakes
- Work at the intersection of frontend craft and financial complexity in a fast-moving team
