About the Role
We’re looking for a Solidity engineer who can design and implement smart contracts at the core of our system. You will:
Own the development of smart contracts for pod’s core protocol (staking, slashing, committee rotation, etc) and applications built on top.
Work closely with scientists and protocol engineers to design efficient and secure protocols.
Participate in security reviews, simulations, and adversarial thinking exercises.
Write thorough tests and documentation.
Qualifications
Must-haves:
2+ years of experience with Solidity and Ethereum smart contract development.
Deep understanding of EVM, gas model, state management, EIPs, and tooling (Foundry, Hardhat, etc.).
Experience deploying and maintaining production-grade contracts.
Familiarity with DeFi protocols, MEV-aware design, and on-chain incentives.
Good understanding of smart contract security and common pitfalls.
Nice-to-haves:
Background in distributed systems, auctions, or mechanism design.
Prior work on high-performance protocols or real-time systems.
Experience writing Rust and familiarity with Reth.
What We Offer
Competitive salary.
High-impact role in an ambitious, fast-moving startup.
Travel opportunities and thought leadership visibility in the crypto community.
About Us
We are an ambitious, early-stage Web3 startup building a revolutionary new layer-1 protocol designed to bring Web2-like experience to Web3 systems. Our team is creating a chainless, blockless, leaderless protocol that challenges the conventional notion of consensus. Read more about pod network here.
We’re backed by a16z crypto, 1kx, and BBF—and we’re looking for exceptional engineers to help us shape the future of decentralized systems.
What is EVM?
EVM stands for Ethereum Virtual Machine, and it is the runtime environment for smart contracts in the Ethereum network
It is a virtual machine that executes code written in the Solidity programming language, which is the language used for writing smart contracts on the Ethereum platform
The EVM is a sandboxed environment, which means that code executed within the EVM is isolated from the rest of the network and cannot interact with it directly
This is important for security reasons, as it prevents malicious code from affecting the rest of the network
When a smart contract is deployed to the Ethereum network, it is compiled into bytecode that can be executed by the EVM
Each node on the network maintains a copy of the EVM, which allows them to execute smart contract code and validate transactions
When a transaction is submitted to the network, the EVM processes it by executing the corresponding smart contract code
The EVM processes the transaction by reading the bytecode, interpreting it, and executing it step by step
The EVM then returns the result of the transaction to the sender, which can include changes to the state of the contract or the network as a whole
The EVM is designed to be Turing-complete, which means that it is capable of performing any computation that can be performed by a computer
This allows for complex smart contracts to be executed on the Ethereum network, including those with conditional logic, loops, and other advanced programming constructs
The EVM is a key component of the Ethereum network, as it allows for the execution of smart contracts in a secure and isolated environment
It is a crucial part of the blockchain infrastructure that enables decentralized applications to be built and run on the Ethereum platform.
