Do you have a deep knowledge of both frontend and backend engineering? Do you set high visual standards and have an obsessive attention to detail? Do you enjoy working across the whole stack, from visual design, user interaction design, frontend technologies, backend interface design, and backend implementation?
DFINITY is seeking an experienced full stack developer, so if you’ve found yourself nodding ‘yes’ to the questions above, this may be the job for you!
Full stack developers at DFINITY work on a broad array of problems including:
- Designing and implementing beautiful user interfaces that are easy to understand and navigate.
- Gathering and negotiating requirements with key stakeholders.

- A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, or a closely related field. The unique challenges at DFINITY have attracted many engineers with advanced degrees, however your practical experience is more important to us than your educational background.
What kind of full stack developers are we looking for?

What We Do
The DFINITY Foundation’s mission is to build, promote, and maintain the Internet Computer — the world’s first web-speed, internet-scale public blockchain. It enables smart contracts to securely serve interactive web content directly into the browsers of end users, making it possible to build dapps, DeFi, open internet services, and enterprise systems that are capable of operating at hyperscale. The Internet Computer uses smart contracts to power an emerging decentralized ecosystem of interoperable dapps and services, where nearly every system and service can run in reimagined form on public blockchain.
