Software Engineer & Blockchain Data scraping for DeFi backtest software CDI/Freelancer

Location: Paris 13th (Station F) Start: Flexible (From January 2024) Duration: Full-time (CDI) or project-based (Freelance) Introduction to the Ecosystem Are you ready to tackle one of the most fundamental problems in decentralized finance? The rise of concentrated liquidity pools like Uniswap v3 has brought unprecedented efficiency to DeFi, but it has also introduced significant complexity and risks for liquidity providers—impermanent loss being a major challenge. At Lobster, we are on a mission to revolutionize liquidity management in decentralized exchanges. Our groundbreaking strategy neutralizes exposure to one of the assets in a liquidity pool, enabling delta-neutral liquidity provision that protects capital while maintaining efficiency. We’re not just building another DeFi protocol; we’re solving a core challenge in the ecosystem with innovative solutions that redefine on-chain liquidity standards. After three years of intensive research and development, our strategies and models have been tested and proven to reduce risk, improve capital efficiency, and scale in collaboration with top decentralized exchanges (DEXs). This is your opportunity to join a founding team with a strong reputation in the Web3 ecosystem. With trusted partners and cutting-edge solutions, we’re building the next evolution of DeFi. Let’s redefine decentralized finance—together. Why Lobster? Decentralized finance has grown exponentially in recent years, but the complexity it introduces for investors and liquidity providers remains a significant barrier. At Lobster, we’ve developed mathematical models and autonomous strategies that eliminate impermanent loss and enable delta-neutral liquidity provision. Our protocol addresses real pain points in the DeFi space, empowering liquidity providers with tools to minimize risk and maximize efficiency. Joining Lobster means working alongside a team that is shaping the future of decentralized finance with solutions built to scale globally. Your Missions Develop and Enhance the Backtesting Tool: Build and expand a robust Python-based backtesting tool, leveraging existing mathematical models to simulate and test Lobster’s DeFi strategies. Scrape and Process Blockchain Data: Design and implement solutions to scrape minute-by-minute historical data from blockchain liquidity pools using tools like Dune Analytics, Flipside Crypto, or TheGraph. Collect, process, and structure data from real-time and historical blockchain activity. Integrate Blockchain and Market Data Sources: Ensure seamless integration of real-time and historical liquidity pool data from decentralized protocols to enable accurate and actionable backtesting. Collaborate with the Team: Work closely with Lobster’s strategy and development teams to align data pipelines and ensure the backtesting tool is optimized for practical use in decision-making. Technical Requirements Programming Skills: Advanced proficiency in Python, with experience in data-focused libraries like Pandas, NumPy, Matplotlib, and SciPy. Familiarity with Jupyter Notebook for prototyping, visualizations, and sharing results. Blockchain Data Tools: Experience with Dune Analytics, Flipside Crypto, TheGraph, or equivalent tools for blockchain data scraping and processing. Strong knowledge of decentralized finance concepts, especially liquidity pools and protocols like Uniswap v3 and AAVE. Data Handling and Visualization: Expertise in handling large, time-series datasets and creating visualizations to support strategic analysis. Knowledge of data storage and retrieval optimization techniques. General Requirements: Understanding of DeFi strategies, impermanent loss, and delta-neutral positions. Proven experience in building analytical or simulation tools. Familiarity with workflows for data automation and integration. Personal Requirements 2 years of experience in DeFi, data engineering, or a related field. Entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to work independently. Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills. Fluent in English (written and spoken). Previous experience in blockchain or crypto projects is a strong plus. J-18808-Ljbffr
