API & SDK Lead

ABOUT THE ROLE

Third-party adoption of Mintlayer's tokenization infrastructure is gated entirely by the quality of the developer experience. The API and SDK Lead owns the developer-facing layer of MWS — the design, the SDK, the documentation, and integration support — taking personal responsibility for whether developers succeed or abandon the product.

WHAT YOU WILL OWN

  • Own the MWS API and SDK product roadmap: design decisions, versioning strategy, and deprecation policies
  • Lead API design for new MWS capabilities: RESTful endpoints, WebSocket event schemas, and blockchain RPC integration patterns
  • Build and maintain the MWS SDK across supported languages
  • Own the MWS developer documentation: completeness, accuracy, and the quick-start to production path
  • Develop and operate the MWS developer integration support function
  • Define API performance and reliability standards with the infrastructure team
  • Coordinate with the Developer Relations Lead on joint developer education content

WHAT YOU BRING

  • 4+ years API product management or SDK engineering
  • Experience shipping developer-facing APIs used at scale in production
  • Deep understanding of REST, WebSocket, and blockchain RPC patterns
  • User empathy for developer experience — has felt the pain of poor documentation firsthand

BENEFITS

  • Health & Prevention: Comprehensive, high-tier medical insurance with a focus on preventative medicine, annual executive health screenings, and diagnostic check-ups.
  • Fitness & Wellness Programs: Monthly fitness allowances for premier gyms and studios, plus internal wellness initiatives including yoga, ergonomics workshops, and stress management.
  • Competitive Compensation: Salary paid in your choice of fiat, Bitcoin, or stablecoins. ML token allocation and vesting for senior roles.
  • Relocation Support: Full assistance with UAE residency visas and relocation to Abu Dhabi for on-site roles. We handle the paperwork.
  • Flexible Working: Structured flexibility across on-site, hybrid, and fully remote roles. Core overlap hours respected across time zones.
  • Global Team Meetups: Periodic gatherings with the full team around the world. The remote team is never remote from the culture.
