About The Company

REMOTE - CET/ET

My client believes that a sound currency and functioning financial system should be basic human rights. Their mission is to help create an open, uncensorable financial system that is secure enough for billions of people to trust with their life savings. Traditional blockchain security reviews are a good start, but it’s not enough. They provide protocols with state-of-the-art, incentive-aligned audit contests, bug bounties and smart contract coverage. They are putting significant resources behind AI security. They are the only security provider that includes a warranty after each audit. They are the leader in auditing, running more public audits than any other provider last year. The Ethereum Foundation, Aave, Optimism, Cosmos, MakerDAO (now Sky) and the biggest crypto teams in the world choose them for their security needs.

About The Role

We believe the blockchain security space is going to be fundamentally different in the next 6-24 months. Blockchain security is one of the areas of software that has experienced very little AI-related change in the last 2-3 years. As AI improves, we expect the blockchain security space to undergo massive change. We want to lead this change to disrupt our current business model. This is where we need your help. No one knows how effective AI can be in finding blockchain vulnerabilities. Few have put significant resources into this effort. Even fewer have worked with true AI and blockchain security experts on this problem. Our goal is to be the leader and pioneer in this area. We are looking for a senior Python developer with a strong track record shipping software products. This person has already proven themselves in production, brings a willingness to deep dive into the Solidity language and ecosystem, and works comfortably with LLMs in daily life. You have used LLMs in your workflow and have experimented with or even created AI products or applications. Take ownership of a core feature or process within our AI product, beginning with Solidity-focused workflows, and drive it end-to-end from design through production. We already have a rockstar team of developers and security researchers who can shore up your weaknesses in certain areas and ship a useful, production-ready application. We are willing to invest deeply in your team 1s success, whatever it may require.

Responsibilities

• Monitoring production AI logs and results to identify failures, regressions, and opportunities for improvement
• Designing and running experiments to improve parts of the AI, from prompts and retrieval to model and pipeline changes
• Building and maintaining robust benchmarking to measure effectiveness and catch regressions
• Working closely with our developers and researchers to stay aligned on goals and ship the right things
• Deep diving into blockchain and smart contract vulnerabilities to design practical solutions
• Staying current with practical advances in AI and LLMs that improve developer velocity and product quality
• Staying current with Solidity language updates, tooling, and broader EVM ecosystem changes

Qualifications

• Senior-level Python experience with a track record of shipping SaaS or software products to production
• Daily use of LLMs and hands-on experience experimenting with or creating AI products or applications
• Willingness to deep dive into the Solidity language and broader EVM ecosystem

Required Skills

• Deep Python expertise and experience shipping SaaS or software products
• Comfort using LLMs in your daily workflow
• Willingness to deep dive into the Solidity language and ecosystem

Preferred Skills

• Experience setting up benchmarking and monitoring for AI systems to measure effectiveness and catch regressions
• Proficiency in Solidity and familiarity with EVM tooling such as Foundry or Hardhat
• Familiarity with prompt engineering, evaluation frameworks, retrieval, and vector databases

Pay Range And Compensation Package

• Attractive base (payable in fiat or crypto) + material tokens/equity + benefits
• Flexible time-off policy
• Great healthcare
• Multiple offsites each year in places like France, Argentina, Thailand, etc.
• Lead the first team to apply AI to a massive, growing industry that has seen little AI disruption so far
• Root access to the decision-making process/criteria in all areas and the ability to work directly with the founders
• Move quickly and get stuff done on a small, elite team that has already made a big impact in the crypto space
• Play a huge role in defining our future and accomplishing the goal of making crypto/DeFi accessible to everyone
