Your mission

An exciting opportunity to partner with the founders of CoinTracker, Jon Lerner (CEO) & Chandan Lodha (President) by managing daily administrative and operational tasks and providing strategic support. As the first Executive Operations hire for a small but growing team you will have a significant impact on the success of CoinTracker. Your most pressing task upon joining will be to optimize the founder's schedules: freeing up at least 50% of their time. By listening, observing, and learning as much business context as possible you will anticipate outcomes, and over your first year, strategically leverage the founder's leadership and visioning capabilities as the company triples its headcount.

In this role you will:

  • Contribute and sometimes take complete ownership of people and recruiting operations tasks
  • Build agendas, take meeting notes, manage founders schedules to maximize productivity, draft all hands notes & investor updates
  • Contribute to company operational processes
  • Plan company events, manage swag, research scaling HR & benefits to an internationally fully distributed team
  • Support communications for an engaged and meaningful remote-first company culture
  • Own state filing registrations, sales tax calculations, and other compliance-related activities

You will have most of these skills and competencies and are enthusiastic to learn those that you may not have yet:

  • A career demonstrating progressively increasing responsibilities in roles supporting leadership. These support roles may include, Executive Assistant, Administrative Business Partner, or Executive Operations.
  • You have worked at an early-stage startup company or a similar working environment where priorities constantly change and no job is too small. You are resourceful and comfortable with ambiguity.
  • Managing up to leadership: providing recommendations, solutions, and feedback.
  • Excel at time management, scheduling, and keeping things organized.
  • A clear verbal and written communicator.
  • Ability to quickly identify or anticipate operational and administrative gaps and take ownership of solving them.
  • A growth mindset: the curiosity to always learn more and from other perspectives.
  • Know how to balance efficiency and being effective.
  • High attention to detail and natural tendency to prioritize.
  • Accountable to yourself and to others.
  • Google Workspace proficiency and a desire to learn new software and technologies, particularly those that support business operations and administration.
  • Familiarity or interest in cryptocurrency and equitable financial access.
  • An appreciation for mentoring support roles both as a peer and as an experienced professional.

What's it like working at CoinTracker?

We are a fully internationally distributed, tight-knit team. We have minimal process, and the majority of our time is spent working and collaborating asynchronously through tools like Figma, Github, Google Meet, Linear, Notion, Slack, Zendesk. We also stay aligned and bonded through weekly sprints, standups, all hands, and socials. We aim to empower every individual on the team with full transparency, ownership, autonomy, and clear objectives. Learn more about our guiding principles.

If this sounds exciting, we'd love to hear from you! Not sure you’re a perfect fit? Reach out anyway. We’re looking for awesome individuals, not folks who perfectly match a job posting.

Technology

Our engineering process includes:

  • Code reviews
  • Continuous integration
  • Multiple daily automated deployments to production
  • Automated testing with >85% code coverage

Some of the technical challenges we face are:

  • Lots of data — billions of data points to track transactions and market pair prices.
  • Data structures & algorithms — automated transfer detection, cost basis tracking, tax optimization, and more. Your CS fundamentals finally come in handy!
  • Scalability — some cryptocurrency users, such as algorithmic traders, accumulate millions of transactions per year. CoinTracker needs to work seamlessly for those power crypto traders.
  • Blockchain — whether it's running our own nodes, implementing xPub address generation and traversal, or parsing smart contracts to seamlessly support decentralized trading, we get our hands dirty with core blockchain technology.
  • Technical complexity — integrating with hundreds of exchanges and blockchains, and supporting thousands of cryptocurrencies means we have to methodically architect our software and build critical monitoring systems to deliver a robust and accurate platform.

Our tech stack is:

  • Web: HTML, Javascript, React, CSS, Sass
  • Mobile: React Native, Expo, GraphQL
  • Backend: Python, Flask, GraphQL, Postgres, Redis, Python RQ
  • Infrastructure: Heroku, AWS
