We are partnering with a fast-growing decentralised infrastructure web3 startup who are searching for an experienced Engineering leader with deep Web3 expertise to take ownership of our technical roadmap, lead and scale the engineering team, and drive the architecture of our core protocols and systems.
As an Engineering Leader at this company, you will lead all engineering efforts, from architecture and infrastructure to protocol and product engineering.
You will drive the execution of the technical roadmap and ensure on-time delivery.
You will build and scale a high-performing, distributed engineering team across frontend, backend, smart contract, and DevOps disciplines.
You will collaborate with founders, product, and community stakeholders to align on strategy and goals.
You will provide technical direction across systems, including smart contracts (EVM-compatible), decentralised infrastructure, APIs, security models, and on/off-chain integrations.
You will champion best practices for security, scalability, performance, and testing across the stack.
You will help shape company strategy from a technical lens, contributing to tokenomics, governance, and protocol-level decisions.
Requirements:
You must have 7+ years of engineering experience, with 3+ years leading engineering teams.
You should possess deep technical expertise in Web3, including smart contracts (Solidity, Vyper), blockchain architectures (EVM, L2s, bridges, etc.), wallets, and cryptographic primitives (zk-SNARKs/ZKPs a plus).
A proven track record building and scaling production-level decentralized applications or protocols is required.
You should have strong experience across the stack: backend (Node.js, Rust, Go), frontend (React, TypeScript), and infrastructure (Kubernetes, IPFS, The Graph, etc.).
You must be a clear and strategic communicator with experience collaborating cross-functionally.
A passion for decentralised systems, open source, and permissionless innovation is essential.
Benefits:
You will be part of a mission-driven team deeply rooted in decentralisation and user ownership.
The position offers competitive compensation with equity and/or token allocation.
You will have full ownership of engineering decisions and the opportunity to shape our future.
The company promotes a remote-first culture with flexible hours.
