R&D Team Leader - Go & Blockchain at Plaee · Trevo
Join the DPM team and help build the next generation of decentralized prediction market infrastructure.
As a Team Lead, you will lead a team of talented engineers while remaining deeply involved in the design and development of the backend systems powering decentralized prediction markets, blockchain integrations, execution services, and real-time market infrastructure.
Working closely with the CTO, you'll help define the technical direction of the platform, drive engineering excellence, mentor developers, and ensure the successful delivery of scalable, production-grade distributed systems. This is a hands-on leadership role where you'll continue to spend a significant portion of your time designing, building, and reviewing production code while leading the team's technical execution.
What you'll do
Lead and mentor a team of backend and blockchain engineers
Own the team's technical execution, delivery, and engineering quality
Design and build high-performance backend services using Go (Golang)
Build integrations with blockchain protocols, smart contracts, and decentralized applications
Integrate with blockchain networks, external services, and real-time market data feeds
Design scalable event-driven microservices using NATS
Implement reliable workflow orchestration using Temporal
Build resilient services for blockchain transaction processing, market connectivity, and backend infrastructure
Drive architecture discussions and make pragmatic technical decisions
Perform code reviews and promote engineering best practices
Coach engineers through design, implementation, debugging, and production incidents
Collaborate closely with Product and the CTO to define priorities and technical roadmaps
Design and optimize distributed systems for scalability, reliability, and low latency
Improve observability, testing, CI/CD, and operational excellence
Requirements
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience
5+ years of professional Go (Golang) development
2+ years of technical leadership or team leadership experience
3+ years of blockchain/Web3 development
Strong experience designing and building distributed backend systems and blockchain applications on EVM-compatible networks, including smart contract integration and production-grade transaction processing
Deep understanding of blockchain architecture and transaction lifecycles, including transaction signing, gas optimization, nonce management, confirmations, and chain reorganizations
Experience leading technical design discussions and delivering complex software projects
Comfortable using modern AI-assisted development tools (such as Claude Code, Cursor, or similar) as part of the daily software development workflow
Experience with PostgreSQL
Experience with Temporal (or similar workflow orchestration platforms)
Experience with NATS, Kafka, RabbitMQ, or similar messaging technologies
Experience with Kubernetes and modern CI/CD pipelines
Strong debugging, troubleshooting, and production support skills
Excellent communication, mentoring, and collaboration skills
Nice to have
Experience with prediction markets
Experience with Central Limit Order Books (CLOB)
Experience with Conditional Token Frameworks (CTF)
Experience with wallet infrastructure or MPC wallets
Familiarity with Terraform and cloud infrastructure
Experience growing and mentoring engineering teams in fast-paced startup environments
Working at DPM
At DPM, you'll join a small, experienced engineering team where you'll have significant ownership over architecture, technology choices, and the evolution of a next-generation decentralized prediction market platform. As a Team Lead, you'll play a key role in shaping both the technology and the engineering culture while remaining deeply involved in building the platform. You'll work closely with the CTO to deliver highly scalable, distributed systems that power secure, reliable, and high-performance blockchain applications.
