Referral bonuses are also available, according to Chastain, who stated, “Will pay 1 ETH to everyone who connects us to engineers or designers that we hire.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are currently a number of available roles on the company's careers page, ranging from business development directors to full-stack engineers to finance managers<\/a>. OpenSea is keen to grow its workforce, according to Chastain, who confirmed this on Twitter:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTrying to supplement our hiring process with some guerrilla recruiting due to the pressing need for manpower.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe don't want to over-index on interview skills\/algorithm work,\u201d he said, adding that for technical positions, the interview process includes some actual coding tasks relating to hypothetical OpenSea capabilities. We take a holistic approach to evaluating candidates.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The popularity of OpenSea has risen in recent months as NFT fever resurfaces, fueled mostly by CryptoPunks and Axie Infinity.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

OpenSea has generated $2.84 billion in trading volume over the last 30 days, according to DappRadar. Its daily volume reached an all-time high of $224.6 million on Aug. 28 from 111,800 transactions in a 24-hour period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OpenSea is the largest consumer of Ethereum network fees, according to Etherscan's Gas Tracker. It has produced 21.6 percent of Ethereum's total transaction fees in the last 24 hours, totaling $5.8 million, more than Uniswap and Tether combined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
