The company has at least 77 roles open, with 34 focused on engineering. Amid massive industry-wide layoffs, Ripple continues its hiring spree, again focusing on engineering. Its careers page revealed that the firm has at least 77 open roles, with 34 of these roles in the engineering department. The company is looking to fill several positions in multiple regions across the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada.

Meanwhile, the company reveals that candidates do not require previous blockchain experience, asserting that it can provide the right mentorship and support for such candidates to learn on the job. Ripple’s call for applications comes as industry peers continue to cut costs, with January recording over 2,800 job cuts, per CoinGecko research. It is the second-largest industry monthly total on record, following the over 3,000 jobs slashed in June in the wake of the Terra ecosystem collapse. Notably, crypto exchanges made up 84% of the January total, tapping declining trading volumes and revenue as precipitating factors.
