## About the role

Take new blockchain infrastructure and product ideas from an uncertain problem to a working system. You will help choose what to test, build the smallest experiment that answers the important questions, and turn promising results into production software. You should enjoy reading protocol specifications and unfamiliar code, talking to developers, and building enough to find out whether an idea is useful. You are also willing to stop an experiment when the evidence does not support it. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- A track record of taking ambiguous engineering problems through working prototypes and production delivery
- Deep hands-on knowledge of at least one blockchain: its execution model, transaction lifecycle, state, finality, and failure behavior
- Strong software engineering skills and experience building backend or distributed systems
- The ability to read unfamiliar code and specifications, form a testable hypothesis, and design an experiment that can disprove it
- Experience designing reproducible performance benchmarks and using profiling to distinguish CPU, memory, storage, and network bottlenecks
- Evidence of careful reasoning about correctness and security, especially where mistakes affect funds or chain state
