This role focuses on complex problem solving, security, supportability, and a pragmatic approach to implementation. You will be expected to quickly understand the strengths and weaknesses of existing code you are working on and carefully and pragmatically choose what needs changing now and what should be changed over time to hit timelines and successfully deliver secure, stable, working software. We want engineers who are comfortable communicating and teaching more junior engineers, and who can clearly articulate tradeoffs between decisions.   You’ll be expected to:

Stay connected to best practices in the engineering and web3 communities. Always prioritize security and communicate your approach to keeping the system secure. Understand and respect Chesterton’s Fence, approaching problems with the intent to perturb existing systems as little as possible until they are well understood. Navigate ambiguity by creating structure when it is lacking. Document your thinking so others can understand your approach. Work to identify issues before they hit production through a rigorous testing practice. Identify and put users first across the full spectrum of your work—from command-line parameters to APIs. Evangelize simplicity, supportability, and ease of use.

Requirements

At least 3 years experience in a staff role or at least 5 years successful experience as a full stack engineer in a high performance environment. Experience executing against all requirements listed under “Responsibilities”. Strong knowledge of Go, including familiarity with standard Go tooling and with effective Go guidelines. Existing understanding of and experience with Solidity-Go bindings and calling Solidity contracts from Go.

Ideally, You’ll Have

Existing technical familiarity with Evmos or a related ecosystem. Existing technical familiarity with Bitcoin.

More about about Tech Leads at Thesis   Tech leads at Thesis set the pace and help perpetuate the Thesis engineering culture. As a Tech lead, you will be helping the team systematically adhere to engineering best practices while acting as a mentor to less experienced teammates. This mentorship requires empathy and patience, establishing a sense that no question is a bad question to foster a learning centric environment.   Tech leads work with engineering leadership to make suggestions for team configurations and identify blind spots. Engineering leadership and project leads rely on tech leads for insights into process efficacy, team morale, and spotting potential burnout. In projects that don’t have an explicit product function, tech leads may take on the role of structuring and running sprint plannings and sprint reviews.   Location   All Thesis roles are remote-first, with a preference for Europe & Americas time zones.   Salary   We pay top of the market, variable with experience and a number of other factors.   Benefits   At Thesis, we work in a fun, fast-paced environment that operates by collaborating both remotely and in person when we can.
