Tech Lead – Cross-Chain Infrastructure | Remote Salary:  $200,000

 

Are you ready to lead the engineering of next-generation blockchain infrastructure? We’re partnering with a fast-growing Web3 startup building intent-driven, cross-chain infrastructure that connects AI, financial applications, and decentralized services.

They’re looking for a Tech Lead to architect and guide the development of their Solver network, the core engine powering automated, intent-based execution across chains. This is a hands-on leadership role where you’ll make high-impact architectural decisions and drive performance, scalability, and innovation.

 

What You’ll Do:
  • Architect & Build  the Solver framework: algorithms, execution strategies, quote aggregation, and intent-ready workflows.
  • Lead Technical Excellence : code reviews, design decisions, and engineering standards.
  • Collaborate Across Teams : align Solver capabilities with product, research, and ecosystem partners.
  • Ensure Performance at Scale : maintain low-latency, high-throughput execution across decentralized environments.
  • Shape Incentive Models : design cryptoeconomic structures to grow and sustain Solver participation.
  • Stay Hands-On : code, prototype, and solve complex technical challenges.

 

What You’ll Bring:
  • 7+ years of software engineering experience, with 2+ years in tech/engineering leadership.
  • Deep expertise in distributed systems, high-performance networking, or large-scale infrastructure.
  • Strong familiarity with smart contracts, on-chain execution frameworks, or cryptoeconomics.
  • Fluency in TypeScript and Go (Rust experience is a plus).
  • Proven ability to lead globally distributed engineering teams.
  • Strong abstraction and problem-solving skills, able to navigate complexity and ambiguity.

 

Nice to Have:
  • Experience building MEV strategies, solver networks, or competitive auction mechanisms.
  • Familiarity with cross-chain messaging protocols or signature aggregation.
  • Knowledge of AI/ML applied to optimization problems.
  • Prior contributions to open-source Web3 protocols.

 

Why Join?

You’ll be part of a high-growth Web3 startup shaping the future of cross-chain, intent-based execution. You’ll work with a smart, results-oriented team on cutting-edge infrastructure, with a chance to influence architecture, incentives, and strategy at the core of a decentralized ecosystem.
