We are looking for a Protocol Engineer to design, implement, and operate the core software of a L1 Chain—focusing on reliability, performance, and the identity‑specific features.

  • Engineer EVM-compatible capabilities on Evmos—precompiles, fee markets, state logic, and cross-layer behaviors.
  • Implement and run BNB Greenfield storage integrations: permissions, cross-chain flows, and app-level patterns.
  • Manage chain upgrades, hotfixes, and param changes via governance, migrations, and multi-env execution.
  • Own stack reliability: node ops, RPC tuning, indexing, monitoring, alerting, and incident response.

Requirements

  • Expert Golang in Cosmos/Tendermint; mastery of state machines and consensus.
  • Deep Evmos EVM proficiency: precompiles, opcodes/gas, JSON-RPC, cross-compat.
  • Hands-on with Greenfield SDKs/APIs, ACLs, and chain/contract integration patterns.
  • Strong in Docker/K8s, CI/CD, IaC for chain infra; plus node ops (pruning, sync, RPC).
  • Rigorous testing (simulations, property-based, upgrade rehearsals) and observability (Prom/Grafana, traces, playbooks).
