- Set best practices for smart contract security, scalability and maintainability.
- Help build and scale a world-class engineering team.
What We’re Looking For
- Strong engineering background with a strong bias for action.
- Experience with Solidity (smart contract development, security best practices, latest tools).
- Obsession for smart contract security.
- Experience with formal verification, fuzzing, or security audits is a plus.
- Experience with Foundry (cast, forge, anvil etc).
- Deep understanding of the Ethereum Virtual Machine.
- Understanding of DeFi, staking & crypto primitives.
