Co-Founder — Blockchain Developer (Perpetual Trading Protocol)

Location: Remote

Engagement: Full-time, Co-Founder (Equity + Token Allocation)

We are building a decentralized perpetual trading protocol that extends beyond crypto. The platform will support synthetic exposure to crypto assets, tokenized equity baskets, index derivatives, and structured options-like products — all on-chain and available 24/7.

We are looking for a technical co-founder with strong blockchain development expertise to lead protocol design and implementation.

Your responsibilities include:

• Designing and implementing core smart contracts for perpetuals, margining, collateral, and liquidation
• Developing synthetic products for tokenized equity baskets and indexes
• Integrating real-time oracles (e.g. Chainlink, Pyth) for multi-asset price feeds
• Designing the trading and risk engine, including funding rate mechanisms and cross-margining
• Collaborating on protocol architecture, token design, and governance structures
• Planning and managing technical scaling, audits, and future team expansion

What we’re looking for:

• 3+ years of experience in smart contract development (Solidity, Rust, or similar)
• Strong understanding of DeFi protocols, derivatives, and perpetual futures
• Experience building or contributing to on-chain trading infrastructure
• Familiarity with oracle systems, front-running mitigation, and protocol security
• Willingness to take on founder-level responsibility and long-term commitment

Bonus points for:

• Experience with low-latency systems or hybrid orderbook/AMM architectures
• Knowledge of structured financial products, synthetic assets, and risk models
• Familiarity with Layer 1 or Layer 2 scaling solutions
• Prior involvement in DAO-based or governance-heavy projects
