About us

My name: M. Ammar Kurabi

My position: VP Engineering

Company name: ChainAPI

Website: https://www.chainapi.com/

Company info and history: We previously built the Honeycomb Marketplace , an API marketplace for smart contracts. Both the platform backend and the components that integrated APIs to Ethereum were built using Phoenix+Elixir, and we are extremely pleased with the results. From there, we have moved on to found API3, which raised a high profile seed round and will continue with a public distribution.

What the successful job applicant will be working on:

You will be working on this migration and extension of the platform.

First time I see a job posting with a salary paid in stable coins! I’m curious to know if it involves more paperwork.
