About Clearmatics

Clearmatics is a blockchain protocol engineering company that builds decentralised financial market infrastructures that are more open, efficient, and resilient than those serving legacy market structures of today.

We have a bold vision for this new market infrastructure - enabling market participants to solve currently unaddressed problems of the real economy, including "missing markets" problems. We aim to achieve our vision through technologies that allow peer-to-peer trading and settlement within new markets, and with digital assets whose values track real-world risk factors that currently have no suitable expression in legacy markets.

No matter the nature of a risk factor, whether macro-economic or climactic, our mission is to make important risk factors tradable; by anyone, anywhere, without reliance on financial intermediaries. We are building this new infrastructure in collaboration with incredible trading and blockchain communities.

Founded in 2015, Clearmatics has been a committed advocate of Open Source development and an active participant in blockchain and cryptography research communities. We also support decentralized infrastructure initiatives.

We are hiring a Smart Contract Engineer to expand our Layer 1 Engineering team. Our stack is Ethereum-like, so familiarity with and passion for this space is essential.

Our work includes blockchain infrastructure for financial use-cases, protocols for applications like smart derivatives, synthetic assets, cryptocurrency stabilization, scalability, and privacy through cryptography (zkSNARKs, multiparty computation, private transactions/assets).

Currently, we are heavily involved as the Launch Partner for the Autonity Project, an EVM-based public blockchain for decentralized derivatives clearing. You will develop and maintain decentralized financial smart contracts on Autonity to enable creation of decentralized risk markets in real-world risk factors.

This involves working on smart derivatives, DEX trading & settlement protocols, algorithmic stabilization, data oracles, liquid staking, and more. You will collaborate with researchers, protocol engineers, and Autonity core developers to transform prototypes into production-grade Solidity code and enhance L1 protocol contracts.

REQUIREMENTS

• 4+ years professional experience in software engineering
• 2+ years smart contract programming experience in Solidity
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field
• Strong knowledge of Eth1 protocols and proof of stake consensus
• Understanding of DeFi landscape and primitives
• Proficiency in Python and web3.py Ethereum development
• Experience with data oracles and P2P data stores (e.g., IPFS)
• Experience working with third-party smart contract auditors
• Contributions to open-source projects in Web3

BONUS POINTS

• Proficiency with Python scientific stack (NumPy, Pandas, Jupyter)

Our compensation is blockchain competitive and depends on your skills & experience.
