At Lobster, we are pioneering a new DeFi category: liquidity pool optimization for decentralized exchanges (DEXs). Our mission is to radically transform liquidity management in decentralized finance by making it more efficient, less risky, and more profitable.
Our suite of proprietary algorithms addresses different aspects of liquidity pool optimization. After three years of R&D, we've built a comprehensive infrastructure that allows for the creation and implementation of various optimization strategies, each targeting specific metrics such as liquidity efficiency, spread reduction, impermanent loss mitigation, or price stabilization.
Working at Lobster is like having access to a sophisticated playground for financial innovation, where you can develop and implement cutting-edge algorithms that solve real DeFi problems.
Why Lobster?
The current problem in DeFi is critical and represents a massive opportunity:
- Billions of dollars are locked in DEXs, but only a small percentage of this liquidity works efficiently
- Impermanent loss is a plague causing many liquidity providers to lose money
- Excessive fees (significantly higher than on CEX) prevent mass adoption
Our approach transforms this vicious cycle into a virtuous one through a suite of specialized algorithms:
- Butterfly🦋 optimizes liquidity efficiency and spread reduction
- Eagle🦅 focuses on minimizing impermanent loss through natural LP strategies
- Whale🐳 improves pool stability by addressing price inconsistencies
We provide the infrastructure to create, test, and deploy these algorithms at scale, which creates an exciting environment for quantitative analysts who want to make a real impact on the future of DeFi.
- Join a founding team at the forefront of DeFi innovation with an infrastructure that solves fundamental market problems
- Work in a stimulating environment at Station F, Paris's tech innovation hub
- Access to a true playground for financial innovation where you can experiment with various optimization approaches
- Competitive compensation with potential for performance-based incentives
- Flexibility between full-time employment and project-based work according to your preferences
- Opportunity to have a direct impact on the development of transformative technology for DeFi
- Access to cutting-edge data and tools for crypto market analysis
- Company culture valuing innovation, efficiency, and concrete results
- Possibility for rapid growth within a fast-growing structure
If you're passionate about DeFi innovation and quantitative analysis, Lobster offers you the chance to develop impactful solutions at the forefront of decentralized finance. Your work will directly shape the future of liquidity optimization while enjoying the dynamic environment of one of Paris's startups.
