About DexTrending

We sell fixed blocks of time on the Dexscreener trending list. A customer picks twelve or twenty-four hours on Solana or one of six EVM chains, pays once in USDC, pastes a contract address, and the window opens. Behind that is a campaign engine that drives real on-chain volume, transaction count and wallet diversity across the whole window — because those are the three things the board measures, and a bot loop fails all three.

The team is small and remote. Everyone here owns something end to end.

The role

Dexscreener does not publish its ranking formula. What is observable is that volume, transaction count and unique wallet diversity all move a position, that the window is rolling rather than fixed, and that the weighting differs noticeably between a quiet Avalanche board and a contested Solana one.

You would own that model. That means collecting board state across seven chains, measuring what actually correlates with a position change, and feeding the result back into two places: the targets the campaign engine aims at, and the entry-time figures published on the site. When a chain's behaviour shifts, you should notice before a customer does.

The published numbers are your output as much as the internal ones. If the site says a Base placement takes about twenty-one minutes, that figure is yours to defend.

You will be a fit if

• Strong applied statistics — you can distinguish a real effect from a busy Tuesday
• Comfortable building your own datasets from on-chain and API sources rather than waiting for clean data
• Python or R for analysis, and enough engineering to ship a collector that runs unattended
• Willing to say that a number we already publish is wrong

Bonus points

• Prior work on ranking or recommendation systems, especially adversarial ones
• Experience with DEX data at scale: subgraphs, indexers, or raw log parsing
• A track record of writing analysis that non-analysts actually read

Compensation

$115k–$160k per year, paid monthly in USD or USDC, whichever you prefer. The range is real: where you land in it depends on experience, and we will tell you which end we are thinking of before the final conversation rather than after.

Location and hours

Fully remote, anywhere. There is no core-hours requirement, but campaigns run continuously and someone has to be reachable when one misbehaves — on-call is shared and compensated, never assumed.

Process

1. Email us. A CV, a repository, or a piece of writing — whatever makes the case.
2. A conversation. Forty-five minutes, two of us, no panel.
3. A technical session. Ninety minutes on a real problem from our backlog, worked through together. Never unpaid homework.
4. Decision. Within three working days, with the reasoning either way.
