In particular, Bakkt is looking for a director for blockchain development, a blockchain developer, a security director, a senior full-stack developer, a mobile developer, and a developer of testing tools. There are also openings for the financial director and the director of institutional sales.
Most employees will work in Atlanta, however, some Bakkt positions are also available for New York, Hong Kong, Tokyo, San Francisco, London, Tel Aviv and Singapore.
It should be noted that due to the so-called Shatdaun, that is, the suspension of the work of American government agencies due to the delay in adopting the country's budget, scheduled for January 24, the launch of Bakkt, apparently, will not take place.
Earlier, representatives of the platform stressed that to start the platform, the company needs to obtain the relevant permission of the regulator in the person of the Commission for urgent exchange trading (CFTC), but its activities were also paralyzed as a result of the shatdaun. The situation is aggravated by the fact that no one can now say when exactly the crisis that has arisen will be resolved and government agencies will resume work.
Recall, on December 31, the Bakkt platform successfully closed the first round of financing, within which it raised $ 182.5 million . At the same time, the company announced that it was postponing the launch to January 24th.
Last week Bakkt acquired part of the assets of the futures broker Rosenthal Collins Group (RCG).
