React Job Details

WHO WE ARE

We are a Ukrainian community of blockchain adherents who united every crypto enthusiast to have the opportunity to develop, create new projects, and network efficiently.

At the moment, because of the war in Ukraine, we have launched active work in Portugal in order to enable Ukrainians to remain within the community, network, and find new job opportunities.


Our highly-skilled, cross-functional team of agile engineers delivers service concepts, experiential prototypes and go-to-market products to transform clients' businesses.

You should be experienced or just passionate about Web3, DeFi, and blockchain. The role is planned to turn into a Lead role as the department grows with the business. Join us remotely.
