About us

Ether.fi is one of the largest crypto companies in the world, with over $10B in assets under management and a team of ~50, almost entirely technical staff. We’ve been profitable since day one and are focused on building real consumer financial applications.

We believe the future of finance is true on-chain banking. Our products, Stake, Liquid, and Cash, let users earn yield through DeFi strategies and spend their assets globally through our credit card program. You can view our growth publicly on Dune.

As we scale our financial products, maintaining world-class fraud/risk defense is core to protecting our users and the long-term health of our card program.

What we are looking for
  • You get genuinely excited about weird patterns, scam tactics, and outsmarting attackers

Perks and benefits

  • Opportunity to own fraud defense for multi-billion dollar products

  • Health, dental, and vision insurance

  • Global team with opportunities for travel across our 3 offices

  • 4 weeks work-from-anywhere
