Full Stack Engineer (Remote)

Agora is working towards a new paradigm for group collaboration by creating the tools for communities to work together onchain. This is not yet-another-productivity-saas. We believe that to enable the next era of collaboration, we need software that can bend current and create new incentives. No amount of removing friction will change how we work together if our reward functions are misaligned. So to this end, Agora is working tirelessly on the best end-to-end governance platform for crypto protocols – the first instance of at scale onchain collaboration. Leading communities like Optimism, ENS, Uniswap, Nouns, and more rely on Agora to coordinate their community around critical protocol upgrades, ecosystem funding, and steward their ecosystem for the future. But that’s not where we stop. Our goal is to build deep collaboration tools for people who couldn’t care less about crypto so that one day (soon), your friends back home are using Agora without ever knowing we’re on Ethereum.

What you’ll do

You will work on building out the next generation of Agora’s governance application focusing on the product and end user experience. You will work closely with our head of engineer, head of design and head of product to build and own features end to end. This includes working on the front-end, having strong opinions on where the data should live in the backend and giving yourself and the team leverage writing automated tests and good docs.

2025 will be a big year for Agora with dozens of new cutomers already committed and lots of improvements on the contracts, architeture, data layer and mobile experience. Your days will be filled with challenging and rewarding work that you will be proud of.
