Senior Blockchain Engineer

As a Senior Solidity Developer (Solidity + Rust), you’ll lead projects across the Rhinestone Protocol, developer tooling (e.g. ), and the Rhinestone Wallet. You’ll be expected to learn the inner workings of smart accounts, understand the different implementations (e.g. Safe, Biconomy, ZeroDev’s Kernel, etc), and how developers are using them at the application layer. This role will also build supporting infrastructure for the Rhinestone Protocol. This will include building offchain services for the registry operations, and audit marketplace, to support common module types, for example, the integration of relay services and data oracles, and more.

Rhinestone is in its earliest innings and we are innovating at the tip of the spear of account abstraction and wallet infrastructure. This is an opportunity for you to leave a mark on the broader ecosystem and become a true domain expert. You’ll be expected to hold your own with leading teams across the space who we regularly interact with, including Safe, core contributors of ERC-4337, Biconomy, ZeroDev, Circle, and OKX to name a few, to drive forward our development initiatives and ecosystem standards, like .
