Our client is building the infrastructure for a more trustworthy internet.

We are looking for a Smart Contract Security Engineer. In this role, you wont just audit code, you'll shape the security model for high-value protocols and safeguard the trust of an entire ecosystem.

  • Collaborate directly with protocol researchers and engineers to harden new features from inception
  • Read, interpret, and refine formal verification specifications to ensure they capture critical security properties
  • Work closely with product and leadership teams to set on-chain strategy and roadmaps

This is a unique opportunity to create a new paradigm of permissionless innovation and have outsized impact on the protocol and broader ecosystem.

What You Will Bring

  • Deep understanding of blockchain fundamentals, EVM, and common vulnerabilities
  • Experience with developer tools for smart contract development (e.g., Hardhat, Foundry)
  • Passion for collaborating with developers, security auditors, and stakeholders

  • Strong testing skills and experience with testing frameworks for smart contracts

  • Experience with production deployments of non-trivial protocols and associated security audits
  • Ability to collaborate with cross-functional and geographically remote teams

View company profile

TechChain Talent was born from a vision to bridge the gap between traditional recruitment and the rapidly evolving world of Web3. Founded in 2024 by Bawar Hamad and Julian Al-Mushadani, who previously established London's first AI specialist recruitment company, the firm emerged to address the unique talent needs of the blockchain ecosystem. What started as a realization that crypto-native companies required a different breed of talent has grown into a specialized agency that speaks the language of DeFi, DAOs, and Layer 1 protocols.

Today, TechChain Talent stands as a premier Web3-native recruitment partner, connecting exceptional developers, engineers, and leaders with some of the most innovative projects in the space. With a remote-first culture and a physical presence in London's Chiswick, the company offers a suite of services ranging from embedded talent solutions to executive search. Their approach goes beyond mere staffing; they act as strategic partners, helping founders build teams that can navigate the complexities of the decentralized web. By fostering a deep understanding of the crypto landscape, TechChain Talent ensures that every placement is not just a hire, but a catalyst for growth in the digital asset economy.
