Do You Cry Tears of Joy When You See a Perfectly Centered Div? Do You Think “Pixel-Perfect” Should Be a Legally Binding Contract? If you answered yes to either of the above, keep reading.

(We have this in writing), • Real Problems, Not Pretend Ones: Forget endless todo apps. You’ll be building the interface for billions in liquidity. Your grandma still won’t understand what you do, but she’ll be impressed by the word “billions.”, • The Usual Bribe Package: Competitive salary, tokens (the kind you hope moon), remote-friendly vibes, and a budget for hardware that won’t make you weep.
