Lightning Labs - Full Stack Engineer
Requirements
• We use AI-native development tools heavily. Experience using Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or similar tools as part of your daily engineering workflow is something we are looking for directly, not a nice-to-have. • You build and ship production-quality software. You have a portfolio, work history, or set of projects that demonstrate this, we'd love to see them. • You have strong TypeScript and React experience, and you are comfortable with modern full-stack web application architecture. • You have experience with server-side rendering, API clients, browser storage, state management, and the practical tradeoffs of building complex web apps for real users. • You use AI-native development tools such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or similar as part of your normal workflow, not as a novelty. • You can take ambiguous product requirements and turn them into working software independently, while communicating clearly along the way. • You have strong engineering practices: automated testing, code review, documentation, debugging, and a bias toward simple, maintainable designs. • You care about product quality. You do not just wire up APIs, you think about the user, the edge cases, the loading states, and the failure modes. • You are excited about Bitcoin, Lightning, and the mission of making Bitcoin cheap, fast, and simple for everyone. • Experience building wallet, payments, fintech, infrastructure, or developer tooling products. • Familiarity with Bitcoin, the Lightning Network, LND, litd, LNC, Taproot Assets, Loop, Pool, or related protocols. • Experience working with WebAssembly-backed browser integrations. • Experience with MobX, Emotion, Dexie, Bootstrap, visx, Jest, or Playwright. • Go experience or comfort reading backend services and protobuf-defined APIs. • Experience at a small, high-growth company where wearing many hats was the norm. • Check out our github repos at: • https://github.com/lightninglabs/lightning-terminal • https://github.com/lightninglabs/lightning-node-connect • https://github.com/lightninglabs/lnc-web • https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd • We strongly encourage you to include links to projects, demos, writing, products, or anything else that shows how you build. A strong portfolio speaks louder than a keyword-optimized resume.
Responsibilities
• Ship end-to-end features in Terminal Web that help users operate Lightning nodes, manage liquidity, monitor activity, and interact with Lightning Labs products through a polished browser-based application. • Ship end-to-end features in Terminal Web • Build across the full stack of a modern TypeScript product: Next.js SSR, React components, MobX stores and view models, Emotion styling, IndexedDB-backed data services, LNC integrations, REST APIs, and the glue code that makes complex node operations feel simple. • Build across the full stack • Own integrations with Lightning infrastructure by working with LND, litd, Lightning Node Connect, Loop, Pool, Taproot Assets, and related services. You will translate protocol and API capabilities into clear product experiences. • Own integrations with Lightning infrastructure • Write production-quality tests with Jest and Playwright, and use those tests to move quickly without breaking the workflows node operators depend on. • Write production-quality tests • Work autonomously with minimal direction. Understand company priorities, identify where you can have the most impact, collaborate with product and engineering when needed, and execute from rough problem statements through launch. • Work autonomously with minimal direction. • Use AI development tools as leverage for exploration, implementation, testing, refactoring, and documentation while maintaining the engineering judgment needed to ship secure, reliable software. • Use AI development tools as leverage
