Job Description
Allium makes blockchain data accurate, simple and fast. When we started out in late 2021 our thesis was simple - blockchain data, despite it being public and free, was difficult to understand, clunky to access and troublesome to maintain. Answering a simple question like “Who are the biggest Ethereum token holders over time?” requires an engineering team to run their own RPC nodes, ingest the full history of the blockchain, clean the data, transform the data and finally summon a wizard to cast a complex SQL query. Allium tames the chaos by ingesting, sanitizing, and standardizing all this data. As of this post, the data we’ve archived across 40+ blockchains is in the petabytes and growing exponentially. We serve 2 groups of customers today with the same data but different platform. Analysts who need to answer data questions about the blockchain (think BI) and Engineers who need highly reliable data queryable in near realtime (think Application backends). Our customers include the biggest institutions Visa, Stripe, Grayscale and also the biggest crypto companies such as Phantom, Uniswap. Allium is one of the unique companies in the industry that bridge blockchain and non blockchain worlds. We love engineers and wizards who love solving new problems every single day. While wizards are not engineers, they contribute and give the best product roadmap guidance to ensure the engineers build the right things in the right way.
Requirements
- Sherlock & Enola Holmes level of curiosity to find peculiarities in the data and help the industry redefine the narratives
- Ability to parse and understand new blockchain schemas fast and well
- Proficient understanding of NFT, DEXs, Decoded Logs, and Smart Contracts to transform the data to the product and customer's needs quickly
