The Team
Founded in 2020, Synonym is preparing for the post-Bitcoin economy by designing and developing an ecosystem of products and protocols that includes Bitkit, Blocktank, and Pubky. Synonym empowers individuals to take control and ownership of their digital lives. We are committed to the principles of digital autonomy, privacy, and open-source technology.
Synonym is an entirely remote team of Bitcoiners working to bring new integrated products to Bitcoin and cutting-edge peer-to-peer technology.
About the Role
We’re seeking a versatile Technical Compliance Engineer to take on a dynamic, hybrid role that bridges technical innovation with compliance systems.

While prior experience with compliance tools and frameworks is a plus, a willingness to learn and grow in this area is more important. You'll also have the unique opportunity to contribute directly to Pubky Core and Pubky Nexus, leveraging your development skills on impactful projects.
