Senior SRE – Polkadot

P2P.org is the largest staking and restaking operator, with a TVL of over $8B 🔝.

We are constantly focused on launching new yield products: for example, in Polkadot (adding +15-20% to APR) and Ethereum, where we offer significantly higher APR (+40%) than any other staking operator 💪

We also keep an eye on exciting projects and launch new networks such as TON, Avail, Monad, and Babylon. We strongly believe in Bitcoin and the DeFi ecosystem around it, and we have a dedicated team focused on finding the best yield solutions based on Bitcoin.

We work with partners like BitGo, Crypto.com, Ledger and ByBit.

We are actively expanding our product line, exploring RWA, data, yield, and service products for exchanges, custodians, and banks
