It's truly remarkable that I'm about to hit the two-year mark at CoinDCX.
We've been on a roll, shifting gears from Angular to Next, crafting our very own in-house design system, and building a stash of private npm libraries – and hey, it's all still in the making!

Now, here's the real scoop: At CoinDCX, we're on the lookout for frontend developers who are more than just coding machines.

We're not into the typical leetcoder scene; we want devs with that special touch for frontend finesse, the ones who make the web sparkle.

And If you're a backend developer, rest assured that the process is somewhat similar for you too, so feel free to drop your resume to my email mentioned at the end of this blog.
