Defi Jobs in Los Angeles, California, United States

We are seeking skilled Rust and Solidity Engineer with extensive experience in Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) development and a passion for blockchain technology. As a key member of our engineering team, you will work on designing, building, and deploying decentralized applications (dApps) and blockchain solutions. Familiarity with Remix, Hardhat, and cross-chain technologies is essential, and knowledge of Interchain and Solana ecosystems will be a strong advantage.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop, test, and deploy smart contracts using Solidity for EVM-compatible blockchains.
• Implement backend blockchain logic using Rust for non-EVM environments when required.
• Collaborate with the team to design and optimize smart contracts for security, scalability, and performance.
• Use tools like Remix and Hardhat to build, test, and debug smart contracts.
• Design and implement decentralized applications (dApps) that integrate with smart contracts.
• Ensure security best practices in contract design and deployment, including audits and reviews.
• Work on cross-chain integrations and protocols to facilitate interoperability between blockchains.
• Contribute to the adoption of Interchain protocols and explore new possibilities in the Solana ecosystem.

Requirements:

• Proficiency in Solidity with a strong understanding of EVM-based smart contracts.
• Experience developing in Rust, particularly for blockchain applications.
• Hands-on experience with blockchain development tools such as Remix, Hardhat, and Ganache.
• Strong understanding of blockchain fundamentals, including consensus mechanisms, gas optimization, and on-chain/off-chain interactions.
• Experience with cross-chain protocols or interoperability frameworks is a plus.
• Familiarity with Solana's ecosystem and its development environment is highly desirable.
• Knowledge of security best practices for smart contract development.
• Ability to write clean, maintainable, and efficient code with a focus on performance.
• Familiarity with Git and version control systems.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to work in a collaborative environment.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with multi-chain or cross-chain dApp development.
• Contributions to open-source blockchain projects.
• Familiarity with other programming languages such as TypeScript or Python for supporting tools.
• Understanding of DeFi protocols, NFT standards, or gaming on blockchain.

What We Offer:

• Competitive salary and equity options.
• Flexible working hours and remote-first culture.
• Opportunity to work on cutting-edge blockchain technologies and projects.
• A collaborative, innovative, and inclusive team environment.
• Professional growth opportunities in an exciting and fast-paced industry.
