Solidity Developer

Protofire as great enthusiasts and active contributors to the open-source blockchain communities, we help builders and providers of decentralized infrastructure, protocols, and applications, bootstrap the demand and supply sides of their markets and accelerate mass adoption.

We help startups with protocol & smart contract engineering, high-performance trusted data feeds (oracles), and awesome developer tools (SDKs/APIs).

Since we started in 2016 we’ve had a chance to contribute to the development of many top projects in the blockchain ecosystem, including Maker, Chainlink, Tezos, Gnosis, Kyber Network, The Graph, Filecoin, Synthetix, Avalanche, and more. Apart from that, we are running one of the biggest indexer nodes in the Graph Network, participating as bridge relayers and validators helping projects and networks to further decentralize their infrastructure.

We are now looking to hire a cross-disciplinary team to help Protofire scale. As such, we’re looking for a Solidity Developer who’s had extensive experience writing, testing, deploying, and refining smart contract code and who is up to date on the current developments in Solidity.

Besides knowing Solidity, we’d love to hear your informed opinion on the latest developer tooling, adhere to industry best practices, and follow the latest vulnerabilities and hacks in the Ethereum smart contract space with interest.
