Crypto Jobs: Solutions Engineer
About Goldsky
At Goldsky, we have a clear vision: To create the most robust data platform for Web3. ☀️
Blockchains are ushering in a new era of unique on-chain experiences and applications. However, building high-quality products is currently a challenge due to the complexities of effectively processing on-chain data. This challenge is growing as more chains and smart contracts are introduced into the ecosystem. Development teams are often required to construct intricate data infrastructure in-house, diverting their attention from their core products.
Goldsky addresses this challenge by providing developers with a seamless way to empower their applications with real-time on-chain data. Our infrastructure supports numerous projects across the industry, enabling them to create rich, immediate, data-driven experiences.
We have secured over $20 million in funding from prominent investors, including Dragonfly Capital, Felicis Ventures, and industry leaders such as 0x Labs, Uniswap Labs, and Protocol Labs. Our team members have previously engineered mission-critical, scalable infrastructure at companies like Meta, Google, Shopify, Activision, and more.
We invite you to join us on our mission to unleash the full potential of data in Web3.
About the Role
Last year, we introduced our inaugural product, Index, which has since seen the successful onboarding of hundreds of customers onto the platform. These include notable names like Zora, Optimism, POAP, NounsDAO, 0x Labs, Immutable, Hashflow, Arweave, and Polymarket, among others.
Recently, we’ve initiated the rollout of Mirror, a comprehensive data pipeline solution designed to stream on-chain data directly to existing off-chain databases.
As our business continues to expand, we are seeking a customer-focused technical generalist to join our Technical Services team. This team is responsible for handling technical interactions with current and prospective customers both before and after the sale. Our goal is to assist them in transforming and synchronizing on-chain data, sourced from subgraphs or our decoded datasets, into their data warehouses. In this role, you will collaborate with John (Technical Services Lead), Jeff (CTO), Hemanth (GTM), and other colleagues across the company to ensure our customers’ satisfaction.
As a Solutions Engineer, you will become an expert in our products and leverage that expertise to develop customized products and services. Given our small team size, you will take on a variety of responsibilities. This will involve working closely with the engineering team to address customer-facing issues and infrastructure challenges. Additionally, you will collaborate with the product and marketing teams to facilitate smooth product launches and provide valuable insights into how our customers utilize our products.

Develop Demonstrations and Resources: Collaborate with us to construct compelling use cases for our products and create comprehensive guides that empower more individuals to independently utilize our offerings.
On-the-Fly Problem Solving: In the ever-evolving landscape of a nascent industry, we are pioneering sophisticated tools. This journey will undoubtedly present unprecedented challenges, and you will consistently devise “good enough” solutions when encountering novel technical hurdles. Your drive, curiosity to uncover the root causes of problems, and determination to iterate through initial attempts until the optimal solution is reached will be invaluable as we navigate uncharted territory.

You experiment with diverse strategies, tactics, and tools to identify effective approaches, readily adjust for repeatable success, and embrace feedback and collaboration to refine your methods.
