The engineering team at Chainalysis is inspired by solving the hardest technical challenges and creating products that build trust in cryptocurrencies. We're a global organization with teams in the UK, Denmark, Canada, and the USA who thrive on the challenging work we do and doing it with other exceptionally talented teammates. Our industry changes every day and our job is to build a flexible platform that will allow us to adapt to those rapid changes.
Requirements
- Managed a team of 5–10 engineers building data infrastructure, data platforms, or backend systems at scale — with a genuine servant leadership philosophy
- A software or data engineering background — you've been a hands-on engineer and can read a Terraform plan, follow a streaming architecture discussion, and ask meaningful questions in a design review
- A track record of developing people: coaching engineers to promotion, giving hard feedback that led to growth, and building teams where retention is high because people feel valued and challenged
- Strong execution habits: you create and maintain project timelines, know when things are off track before your team tells you.
- The ability to communicate clearly — you can explain a technical decision to a VP, write a concise incident summary, and draft a quarterly plan for your team
- Collaborative instincts and experience working cross-functionally with Product, other engineering teams, and leadership in a fast-moving environment
- An interest in or curiosity about cryptocurrency and blockchain technology — we can help you learn, but the curiosity has to be genuine
- A proactive mindset toward AI-assisted engineering — you should already be using AI tools (Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or similar) in your own work and have opinions about how they change engineering workflows, code quality, and team productivity
