This is a senior fullstack role: you work across backend, frontend and smart contracts.
WHAT YOU WILL OWN
Features end to end: backend, frontend and production
The on-chain / off-chain architecture of your product: what lives in contracts, what lives in services, and how the two stay consistent. You make these decisions and justify them in writing
Security and correctness of what you ship: signing flows, interactions with contracts that hold user assets, keys and secrets
Production operation of your services, as part of the team's on-call rotation

Build backend services in Go and TypeScript: chain indexing, transaction relaying, event processing, APIs for dApps and SDKs
Build infrastructure backend services for tokenizing in-game items and currencies
Build dApp frontends in React: wallet connection, transaction signing, on-chain state in the UI
Integrate smart wallets into products: accounts, paymasters, bundlers
