Senior Frontend Engineer

About Argent

Argent aims to be crypto’s defining company: the first to bring the benefits of self-custody to a global audience. Giving people control of their assets and identity, and helping them to enjoy new economic opportunities.

To do this we’ve built the first smart wallet. As different from traditional wallets as smart phones were to 90’s phones. Argent is easier, safer, cheaper, and greener.

As a company, we’ve raised a $40m Series B from Paradigm, Index Ventures and Creandum, putting us in a strong financial position with 4 years of runway.

We work remotely across Europe, prioritizing autonomy and flexibility. And it’s a particularly exciting time to join as we’re launching new breakthrough products on Starknet.

  • Hito Studios, our new startup studio. We recently launched the studio in partnership with the Starknet Foundation with the aim of building and spinning out iconic consumer-facing projects. The studio will also accelerate existing, early stage Starknet projects with similar potential. We want Hito Studios to be a moonshot factory, radically changing crypto’s impact globally.
