About the Role

As an engineer in our Collection Engineering team, you'll build the tools and platform that power Elliptic's intelligence operation, the engine behind a product used by law enforcement, regulators, and the world's largest financial institutions to fight crypto crime.

Intelligence flows into Elliptic from everywhere. All of it needs to be ingested, classified, stored, and reviewed before it can reach our proprietary graph database, the system at the heart of our market-leading products.

Our team owns that pipeline end to end. Working alongside data scientists, analysts and researchers, you'll help design and build the services and tooling that scale the collection effort, remove bottlenecks, and free our intelligence team to focus on the work only humans can do.

Your work will get stolen funds traced, ransomware actors identified, and sanctions enforcement enabled. Few engineering roles connect code and consequence so clearly.

What you will do

  • Design and build software tools to improve and enhance our intelligence collection and analysis efforts. Examples of such tools range from services deployed on kubernetes to browser extensions and beyond.

  • Collaborate with a world class team of analysts and researchers to understand their processes and pain points, and automate them away.

  • Develop software to analyse and interpret cryptocurrency usage behaviours and trends.

  • Implement observability mechanisms to detect problems in your environment(s), and run the associated business processes to resolve.

You will be a great fit here if you

  • Have a passionate interest in cryptocurrencies and blockchains and their usage (both from a technical and economic perspective) in the real-world.

  • Have great coding skills in Typescript and the proven ability to engineer good solutions.

  • Have increased operational efficiency by integrating disparate systems.

  • Enjoy working as part of a close-knit team on highly impactful problems, making the crypto ecosystem a safer space.

  • Promote a positive culture of collaboration, through open and effective communication, particularly when addressing issues or raising concerns.

  • Are able to form well reasoned, data driven or otherwise evidence-based arguments, to influence key stakeholders across the business.

  • Know when to build PoC vs production grade software.

  • Are fluent in AI and agentic workflows.

Required Skills and Experience

  • 3+ years of commercial experience

  • Proficient in Typescript, plus React, Nest.js

  • Familiar with Postgres and K8s

  • Experience with AWS, Terraform, Datadog

Bonus points

  • Has worked in an intelligence collection setting

  • Experience with “big data” technologies, the management of data, and data pipelines

How we work

  • Hybrid working and the option to work fromalmost anywhere for up to 90 days per year

  • £500 Remote working budget to set up your home office space

Learning & Development

  • $1,000 Learning & Development budget to use on anything (agreed with your manager) that contributes to your growth and development

Vacation / Leave

  • Holidays: 25 days of annual leave + bank holidays

  • An extra day for your birthday

  • Enhanced parental leave: We provide eligible employees, regardless of gender or whether they become a parent by birth or adoption, 16 weeks fully-paid leave.

Benefits

Where to Advertise Blockchain Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise blockchain jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards, communities and channels that reach Web3, smart contract and protocol engineers. The candidate pool is global in outlook but concentrated in specific communities — protocol engineers, smart contract developers, DeFi specialists and Web3 product leaders who move between roles through networks and community channels as much as traditional job boards. General job boards reach a broad audience but lack the specificity that blockchain professionals expect. Specialist platforms, crypto-native communities and targeted outreach each serve a different part of the market. This guide, published by BlockchainJobs.uk, covers where to advertise blockchain roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Blockchain Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Blockchain Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the Web3, DeFi and tokenisation hiring trends shaping UK blockchain careers over the next three years. Blockchain is creating jobs in places nobody predicted three years ago. What began as infrastructure for cryptocurrency is now embedded in financial services, supply chain management, digital identity, healthcare records, and the emerging architecture of tokenised assets. The roles being hired for today bear little resemblance to the developer-heavy, crypto-native job adverts that defined the sector's early years. For job seekers, this is both the complexity and the opportunity of building a blockchain career in 2026. The sector has matured beyond its speculative phase and into serious institutional adoption — and that shift has fundamentally changed what employers are looking for, where the jobs are, and which skills command a premium. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years aren't necessarily those who got in earliest or who can recite the Bitcoin whitepaper from memory. They're the ones who understand where enterprise blockchain, decentralised finance, digital assets regulation, and Web3 infrastructure are heading — and who are building their skills accordingly. This article breaks down what the UK blockchain jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the next wave rather than behind it.

New Blockchain Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Driving Web3 Careers

New Blockchain Employers to Watch in 2026: a UK and global shortlist of Web3, DeFi and crypto firms hiring smart contract, protocol and security engineers. The blockchain and Web3 job market in the UK is evolving rapidly. After a period of volatility, the sector has entered a more mature phase—defined by institutional investment, real-world use cases, and infrastructure-led growth. For candidates exploring opportunities on BlockchainJobs.uk, the key shift is clear: the most exciting employers are no longer speculative crypto startups, but well-funded companies building the future of finance, payments, and digital assets. In this article, we explore the new blockchain employers to watch in 2026, focusing on companies that have recently raised funding, secured major contracts, or expanded into the UK market.
