Job Description

The mission of Trust Machines is to grow the Bitcoin economy. We’ve recently raised $150M to realize this vision, build Bitcoin apps, and the open-source technologies required to unleash the true potential of Bitcoin for DeFi and Decentralized Applications.

Trust Machines is building DeFi on Bitcoin, and we’re looking for Protocol Engineers (junior to staff level) to join our remote-first team. We’re building at the cutting edge of Bitcoin, using novel smart contracting functionality on Bitcoin to improve on existing DeFi lending. You would join a small team building a new protocol from the ground up, designing and developing the MVP to long-term product. The ideal candidate has start-up experience and is passionate about Bitcoin, Web3 and DeFi.

Here’s what you’ll do:

  • Collaborate with our engineering teams and cross functionally to architect a secure, decentralized, and highly-functional Bitcoin DeFi app
  • Design, develop, and deploy smart contracts and decentralized applications on Stacks, writing clean, efficient, and maintainable code
  • Propose, execute, and iterate on research sprints to develop novel capabilities and technologies using Discreet Log Contracts on Bitcoin (no prior experience with Bitcoin script or DLCs required)
  • Collaborate with various TM teams including core engineering, product design, UX, and business development

What we're looking for:

  • 4+ years of work experience in software development, ideally including work in a DeFi protocol
  • A passion for Bitcoin, DeFi, and crypto, and working knowledge of the same
  • Hands-on experience with smart contract blockchain platforms like Ethereum (EVM), Cosmos, Solana, Stacks, or WebAssembly virtual machines
  • Fluency in Solidity or another smart contract language and a Github profile that demonstrates proficiency
  • Proven experience as a smart contract engineer or similar, with a strong understanding of blockchain concepts, consensus algorithms, and cryptographic principles
  • Familiarity with smart contract development tools and frameworks (e.g. Foundry, Hardhat, Remix, Web3.js)
  • Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with a focus on discovering solutions instead of identifying roadblocks
  • Self-motivated and driven contributor, who can independently own feature development and collaborate with a team on best practices.

We’d Also Like to See:

  • Experience in the end-to-end full-stack development and/or launch of a Web3 DeFi protocol
  • Experience in Clarity and/or end-to-end development of a Stacks-based application
  • Experience at a startup as an early engineer, even better if you’ve tried to launch your own project.
  • Strong communication skills
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field

What We Offer:

  • 100% work from home
  • Company equity
  • Open Vacation Policy, take the days you need
  • Up to 16 weeks of paid parental leave
  • Your choice of technical setup and equipment
  • Opportunities for professional growth and development
  • Monthly internet & gym reimbursements
  • Pay Transparency Notice: Depending on your work location, the target annual salary for this position can range as detailed below. Full time offers from Trust Machines also include equity + token incentives + benefits (including medical, dental, vision and 401(k)). Pay Range: $150,000—$210,000 USD

Please note that benefits vary by country. The ones shown above are for our full-time U.S.based employees. Benefits information for non-US-based positions will be provided to individuals who interview for those roles.
