What is Kraken Forge - Build the tools beneath the surface?

Kraken Forge - Build the tools beneath the surface is the first external remote Hackathon organized by Kraken. 


Who can attend?

Anyone with a technical profile is welcome to register and apply to the Challenge.


How are applicants selected?

Kraken Forge curators will select participants based on their technical curiosity, motivation, and clarity of intent.

We’re not looking for polished CVs, we’re looking for builders. Show us your passion for engineering, your interest in trading systems, and any past projects or repos that highlight your approach to problem-solving.

Applications will be reviewed based on:

  • The quality and relevance of your short pitch or bio

  • Demonstrated interest in crypto, data systems, or developer tool

You don’t need to be a crypto veteran, just someone who loves to build things that perform, scale, and make systems better.


If I participate in the event, will I get invited to an Interview Process?

Outstanding participants may be invited to a fast-tracked interview process with Kraken’s engineering team if they’re interested in exploring career opportunities with us.
