About Acala
Acala's mission is to build and nurture the autonomous financial infrastructure of the decentralized web. Delivering on this mission will bring more financial accessibility, opportunity, and prosperity to everyone on the planet through a new, open financial system.
Our core project is the Acala Network itself, which we expect to become the de facto DeFi parachain and stablecoin of the Polkadot ecosystem. Polkadot provides the underlying trust primitives to our parachain, upon which we’ve built our suite of financial primitives including; Multi-collateralized Stablecoin; Trustless Staking Derivatives, and Unified Decentralized Exchange. These primitives will be used by us and other teams to power open DeFi innovations, and burn away all need for the parasitic intermediaries that inhabit almost every conventional trust-based financial system.
We have secured our support from eminent backers like Polychain, Coinbase Venture, Pantera and many more. We’re still preparing Acala’s parachain launch, so there’s no better time to join our mission and be a part of the future that we’re building. Because whoever you are, we’re building it for you 🚀
About the role
We are looking for an experienced QA Automation Engineer to join Acala's Blockchain Engineering team of 10+ Engineers. Our platform consists of; Rust-based blockchain nodes; an EVM of Solidity-based smart contracts; and a variety of other Fullstack elements like Typescript / React / Node.js. Our Developers already have mature pre-release checklists for these various projects, but it will be your job to help us tie them all together into a unified QA Strategy - and to automate as much of it as possible.
As the 1st QAE at Acala you will have an 'open menu' regarding what tools to use for; internal release; public beta release(s); production release; and deciding what we should (or shouldn't) be automating in the process. We have created this role now because we are ready for a dedicated QAE, and we know that there are QAEs out there who know how to setup and run QA processes 'from zero' but haven't yet been given the chance to do so - this is your opportunity.
Our ideal candidate(s) will have some exposure to build management for a set of web-based applications, and will be able to discuss the highs and lows of release scheduling at interview. We're expecting to hire someone who is familiar with blockchain concepts, but we’re open to a wide range of QAEs that might be focused on traditional applications, provided they are aware of blockchain trends and what we're building.
Competitive Salary | Full Time | Contract | Remote anywhere
Our Team
Working across New Zealand, the USA & China, our team has emerged from our shared desire for a fairer and more inclusive financial system - in direct contrast to the clear shortcomings of the current institutions that run the world. We’re just people like you, but we’re some of the leading blockchain innovators, Substrate and Rust developers, full-stack dApp developers and economists.
Our Values
The community we’re building is shaped by our values and fuelled by the needs of all humans:
- Inclusion, Care, Trust, and Respect
- Empowerment
- Guidance and Support
- Friendship, Community, Real RelationshipsÂ
We’re building Acala based on a core set of values we believe are in line with the tenets of web3:
- True decentralization
- Less Trust, More Truth
- Integrity
- Accountability
- Empowering individuals with more autonomyÂ
What We Have Achieved
Acala was founded in 2019 as an early Web3 Foundation grant recipient, and is an ecosystem and education partner of W3F and Polkadot. We have delivered 3 successful live testnet candidates acquiring 14,000 new accounts and 140,000 transactions within the first 3 weeks. And we expect to be among the first to launch on both Kusama and Polkadot in 2021. Stay tuned!

NOTE: To all external Recruiters who have 'exciting profiles' to share with us, please do so knowing that without signed terms & conditions Acala deem any introductions made to be a complimentary courtesy to the development of the Web3 infrastructure. Thank you for your support.
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.
