The Role

Alchemy is building out distributed protocols to augment our developer platform. As one of our first smart contract engineers you will be architecting and building those protocols, and setting the bar for highly readable, optimized, and secure code backed by a comprehensive test suite. You'll be responsible for bringing the same level of security, speed, and stability as our existing platform to our distributed efforts. As they augment our existing developer platform, the contracts you build will quickly become a platform for thousands of teams and millions of users globally.

Responsibilities:

Architecture and design of distributed protocols with an emphasis on security, performance, and scalability
Write, deploy, and test smart contracts and maintain them in production
Develop and own best practices for protocol upgrades and versioning across different networks
Collaborate with engineering, product, and design on the user-facing applications built around our smart contract protocols
Mentor other engineers in in-depth Solidity/EVM topics and best practices
Stay up to date with the latest Solidity releases, developer tooling, and exploits

What We're Looking For:

6+ years of relevant industry experience
2+ years of smart contract development including production deployments of original, non-trivial protocols and related security audits
BS/BA in Computer Science
Extreme proficiency with Solidity and the EVM
Experience designing distributed protocols
Experience designing, building, testing, deploying, and maintaining high traffic smart contracts
Experience building and managing a protocol with significant TVL is a plus
Ability to balance shipping quickly with building stable infrastructure
Experience working with startups
Passion for blockchain technologies and Web3
A hustler mentality, founding a company or building side projects is a plus!
