  • Lead smart contracts security audits.
  • Follow the latest EVM smart contract developments.

You also likely:

  • Have 5+ years of production-level software experience.
  • Have 2+ years of production-level Solidity experience.
  • Have some interest in TypeScript, Golang, or Rust.

  • Work on a small, passionate team.
  • An entrepreneurial opportunity where you can have oversized impacts.
  • Opportunity to drive innovation and strategy.
  • Your work will be open source.
