About Digital Asset & The Canton Network
Digital Asset builds the technologies that are reshaping the foundations of financial markets. Our mission is to create the world’s most trusted, privacy-enabled, and interoperable digital infrastructure for global finance.
At the heart of this mission is the Canton Network - the blockchain purpose-built for institutional finance. Uniquely combining privacy, compliance, and scalability, Canton enables real-time, secure settlement across multiple asset classes. Governed by the Canton Foundation with participation from leading financial institutions, it is the proven link between the promise of blockchain and the power of global finance.
Founded in 2014 and headquartered in New York City, with offices in London, Zurich, Budapest, Hong Kong, and Sydney— we are on a mission to transform finance— and that transformation is now playing out rapidly on the Canton Network.
If you’re interested in playing a crucial role at the intersection of traditional and crypto-capital markets and want to help bring the next trillion dollars of finance on-chain, join us.
About The Role
The SDK team designs, builds, and maintains the APIs, libraries, and tools that empower third-party developers.

The solutions developed using our product are predominantly mission-critical workflows within the financial and insurance sectors.
As a software engineer in the SDK team, you'll have the unique opportunity to work with cutting-edge technology that spans the entire stack. This includes everything from the database back-end and Pekko Stream implementation, through gRPC and HTTP interfaces, to the Java and TypeScript client libraries.

- Hardening and testing the APIs to satisfy the production non-functional requirements in particular performance, scalability, and security.
- Assist other team members by providing code reviews, giving feedback and helping set direction.
- Following a collaborative approach that fosters, embraces, and insists upon diverse perspectives. We are a powerful team where everyone pulls more than their weight, where everyone matters and all opinions are valuable.
