Who is Risk Labs?
Risk Labs is the foundation and core team behind UMA, and some top tier products built with it such as oSnap, Oval, and the Across protocol. The Risk Labs team operates as one cohesive (amazing!) culture, but focuses on two core protocols, UMA and Across. UMA and Across are decentralized protocols governed by community members across the globe in DAOs and are supported by Risk Labs Foundation. UMA’s optimistic oracle (OO) can record any verifiable truth or data onto a blockchain. Across is leading the future of interoperability with its frontier intents based architecture.
We’re looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join the Across protocol team. You’d be working alongside top-tier engineering talent, world-class data-driven product development, and a motivated team to be hugely impactful for the exciting interoperable future that we’re racing towards. You’re someone who loves optimizing and building at the intersection of technology, finance, and data.

We are a group that’s aligned with the ethos of the crypto industry and doing our best to make an impact for the industry and the world at large. You’ll succeed with Risk Labs if you’re a self-starter, kind, adaptable, and passionate about making an impact. Risk Labs is a value-driven team that strives to create an environment where we can do our best work, and succeed. We’re building products that we believe in, and continuing to strive for innovation and growth. Both personally and professionally we support each other to create a happy, healthy, and inspired team vibe so we can remain motivated to build things the world needs and loves. We take pride in the fact that we are at once family-friendly as well as nomad-friendly.
UMA’s optimistic oracle is a decentralized truth machine for Web3- yes, that’s a bold and very exciting statement. We’ve built a solid foundation, in terms of the team, the technology, and the products, and the roadmap ahead is one full of exciting technical challenges, growth, and telling our story to the world. Across is creating an interoperable world where DeFi is seamless with its intents based architecture. We’ve grown from an early bridge to a market leader and won’t stop innovating and building. We have big dreams and a team excited to bring them to life.
Our team blends a mix of highly sought engineers and a diverse business team to showcase their high-quality tech. Our international and fast-growing team includes a diverse background of experiences and has drawn world-class talent. We have a great network of supportive investors from groups like Placeholder, Blockchain Capital, Bain Capital, Coinbase, Dragonfly to name a few. Teammates take the time off that they need and support each other to be their best selves- we care about your wellness. You will not get bored with Risk Labs. We are constantly developing, building, experimenting, and evolving. Yes, we try to allow people to focus on their specific product areas, but things are always shifting and evolving.
