Luno is the crypto investment app you can rely on, enabling you to buy, store and explore crypto securely. We’re committed to putting the power of cryptocurrency in everyone's hands sensibly and responsibly.

Since 2013, we’ve helped millions of people around the world invest safely in crypto. We do this by cutting through the hype and supporting customers at every step of the way. All products and cryptocurrencies on our platform must first meet stringent legal, risk and technical security standards.

Transparency is key for us. Luno stores all crypto on a 1:1 basis and we have rigorous processes in place so you can be confident your investment is secure. We’re available in more than 40 countries around the world and we work closely with respective regulators in all of these markets to be fully compliant, as we believe this is the best way to help everyone, everywhere, invest safely.

You’ll be joining a team focused on the secure custody of customers’ digital assets and the blockchain integrations that make those assets available on our platform. Custody is the foundational layer of a crypto exchange: it enables us to source, store, secure, and operationally manage digital assets so customers can buy, sell, send, receive, or otherwise use them. This pod designs and maintains the systems that make this possible, ensuring Luno can safely hold assets and flexibly support a wide range of blockchain-driven functionality.

Because digital assets live on blockchains, this pod is also responsible for building and operating the integrations that allow Luno to interact reliably with those networks. The systems you contribute to are mission-critical—everything else at Luno depends on them being secure, efficient, and resilient. Your work directly underpins the reliability of our platform, the safety of customer funds, and the core infrastructure used by millions of customers worldwide.

• Build and maintain secure, distributed microservices that support custody operations for millions of customers globally.
• Design and implement services and tooling that integrate with blockchains and custody infrastructure.
• Contribute to the architecture and security of systems that handle key management, transaction orchestration, and blockchain communication.
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to define, design, and deliver new custody-related capabilities.
• Write testable, maintainable, and robust code that supports high-reliability systems.
• Investigate and resolve issues, continuously improving the performance and resilience of custody and blockchain-related services.
• Work on features that directly influence customer asset safety, operational reliability, and Luno’s core crypto infrastructure.
