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:

Canton Network is delivering what others promised but couldn’t: a blockchain for finance that actually works. As the only open layer 1 blockchain with configurable privacy and controls sufficient for regulatory compliance, it is the venue where DeFi and TradFi are converging.

Canton Network’s growth is driven by a wide ecosystem of institutions and developers building on the network. Everything from crypto assets to regulated financial services, from data and oracle services to KYC and AML solutions for the network relies on Canton’s SDK: The smart contract language, blockchain APIs, integration components, and libraries. These toolchains, related sample code and architectural patterns, and the developer experience at large determine the speed at which the ecosystem can evolve. The network itself breaks new ground in targeting nimble web3 developers and large regulated institutions alike, with privacy as a first order concern. As such, the developer tools also need to cater to this wide stakeholder set and balance providing familiar, slick experiences with exposing and exploiting Canton’s unique capabilities - a design challenge spanning developer experience with cutting edge blockchain application architecture.

In this role you’ll be at the forefront of understanding the needs of developers building apps and services on Canton Network. You’ll engage with development teams across community and commercial partners to both inform them and understand their problems and wishes. You’ll be an expert application developer yourself and be intricately familiar with Canton’s application development tooling.  You’ll work with the SDK development team to prioritize problems, ideate and design solutions, and you’ll help translate your insights into an actionable roadmap and backlog and execute against it.

Responsibilities:

  • Continuously improve the developer experience to delight builders on Canton Network.
  • Build relationships with builders across the ecosystem to understand their goals and obstacles.
  • Become an expert on Canton application development and create materials ranging from documentation to developer marketing.
  • Understand and track the requirements, problems, and wishes of the application developer and integrator community relying on Canton’s SDK.
  • Manage roadmap, backlog, and releases for the development team behind Canton’s SDK.
  • Support SDK development work by clearly formulating projects in terms of problems and objectives, ideating with architects and engineers, and validating designs.
  • Stay up to date with the developer experiences provided by other network ecosystems and use that information to inform designs and priorities for Canton’s SDK.

What We're Looking For:

  • You care deeply about developer experience and have worked on developers facing products or technologies before.
  • You have deep expertise in blockchain application development and application development in general.
  • You are an active coder and developer. You have written blockchain applications yourself.
  • Market knowledge of the developer tools and their strengths and weaknesses in other ecosystems.
  • Evidence of being able to grasp, communicate, and write about highly complex technical topics.
  • 5+ years experience across (technical) product management and related functions like program management and engineering management.
  • Excellent communication skills in English.
  • Keen to work in-office in Zürich.

At Digital Asset, we are committed to compensation structures that reward impact consistently across our global teams. We support our people at every stage of life with comprehensive, family-forward benefits and flexible working models designed to help you do your best work.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
