Role overview
fintech30+ employees
NAVI Labs is a Palo Alto–based fintech company operating at the intersection of technology, finance, and blockchain. It builds the technology behind NAVI Protocol, creating simple and powerful tools that help people manage and grow their money on the blockchain. Its products include lending platforms for earning and borrowing, automated vaults that run strategies in the background, and trading tools for more advanced users. The platform has been operating for over three years and manages more than $1 billion in assets, reflecting its scale and reliability.
What you will do
- Design and develop end-to-end web applications, integrating React frontends with Node.js backends and complex blockchain smart contracts.
- Collaborate with product and design teams to architect and launch new DeFi products like automated vaults and liquid staking tools.
- Optimize application performance and scalability to handle high-demand transaction volume and secure real-money financial operations at scale.
Who this is a fit for
- 3+ years of professional fullstack experience, demonstrating deep proficiency in React, Node.js, and building rigorous, scalable web architectures.
- Proven ability to ship fast in a startup environment, with a "builder" mindset capable of taking features from concept to production.
- Strong computer science fundamentals; while deep crypto experience is a plus, we value sharp Web2 engineers eager to master blockchain integration.
Why this role is remarkable
- Massive existing traction with $400M+ TVL and 900,000 users on Sui, positioning you at the center of one of the fastest-growing DeFi ecosystems.
- True greenfield opportunity building new product lines from scratch rather than maintaining legacy code, working directly on lending, liquid staking, and automated vaults.
- Backed by tier-1 crypto investors including OKX Ventures, Hashed, and dao5, offering the stability of a proven protocol with the growth upside of an early-stage team.
