This is a full-time, remote Blockchain Developer position paying $135,000 a year, open to candidates in any location. The role sits within a fintech and crypto product team and covers the full lifecycle of a smart contract, from initial design through the audit that happens before anything touches mainnet.
On the education side, a four-year degree is the minimum this posting asks for, and the role expects two years of hands-on experience building decentralized applications or smart contracts specifically. General software experience doesn't substitute for that; the two years need to have been spent actually shipping contract code, not just studying blockchain theory.
Core responsibilities
- Take a decentralized application or contract from an initial spec through to a working, deployed build
- Review contract logic line by line looking for exploitable weak points, including reentrancy, overflow, and access-control gaps
- Wire on-chain functionality into the product's existing front-end and back-end services
- Write documentation clear enough that another developer can review the logic without a walkthrough call
Solidity proficiency is required, along with practical experience writing and testing smart contracts, a working grasp of blockchain protocols, JavaScript for the surrounding application layer, cryptography fundamentals, and comfort using Web3 libraries to connect front-end code to on-chain logic.
Nice to have on top of that: experience with an audit-focused static analysis tool like Slither, a development environment like Hardhat or Foundry rather than older tooling, and some exposure to Layer 2 scaling solutions. A candidate missing one or two of these can still be a strong fit if the core Solidity and audit experience is solid.
What the work actually looks like
One recent contract review turned up a subtle reentrancy path in a withdrawal function that only triggered under a specific sequence of calls involving a third-party token contract. Catching that before deployment saved a production incident down the line, and that's a fair representation of what audit work in this role tends to involve: reading code slowly enough to notice the sequence that a rushed pass would miss.
Design work runs in parallel with the audit responsibilities rather than as a separate phase. You'll be writing new contract logic for upcoming features in the same week you're reviewing someone else's pull request for a vulnerability, and the context-switching between building and breaking things is part of the job rather than an occasional exception.
Compensation and benefits
Along with the $135,000 salary, this role includes health insurance, paid time off, remote work flexibility, and equity- or token-based incentives tied to the product's performance. Naukri Mitra has posted several fintech engineering roles from this employer, and this one adds a tuition reimbursement or learning stipend on top of the standard package, aimed at developers who want to keep deepening their expertise in a fast-moving field.
Fit and growth
Solidity moves quickly enough that a developer who learned it two years ago and hasn't kept up will notice gaps almost immediately once real code review starts. Staying current here isn't optional, though the team runs occasional internal sessions to help close gaps rather than expecting everyone to self-teach in isolation.
People who've come from a traditional backend background sometimes underestimate how differently you have to think about state and cost once code lives on-chain permanently and can't just be patched with a quiet redeploy. That adjustment takes most new hires a few weeks, even strong ones.
How to apply
Include a link to contract code you've written or audited, ideally something publicly verifiable on a testnet or mainnet explorer. If your relevant work is covered by an NDA, a written description of the systems you built, along with what you can share, is a reasonable substitute. Given the remote setup, expect overlap with a distributed engineering team and occasional flexibility around deployment windows that don't align with a standard nine-to-five.
