THE TEAM
Our Krakenites are a world-class team with crypto conviction, united by our desire to discover and unlock the potential of crypto and blockchain technology.

We’re looking for a Senior Manager, Financial Risk to help design and build the systems that protect Kraken’s balance sheet and ecosystem as the industry evolves.

Shape Product & Platform Risk
- Partner with product and engineering teams to evaluate and shape new products before launch
- Identify financial risks across margin, derivatives, staking, DeFi inte ... (truncated, view full listing at source)
