Chief Technology Officer

mvup is an Ethereum rollup with a virtual machine running the Move smart contract programming language. We are fundamentally rewriting the foundations of secure blockchains and developer experience from the ground up.

This is the first opportunity to join a core team that’s excited about software security and reimagining the tools required for building groundbreaking applications. We believe that Ethereum will continue to be the leading platform for smart contract development but it’s far from its potential. We are bringing to Ethereum the benefits of security-first development and tools that bring innovators closer to what they really want to build. We are drawn to solving complex challenges, advocate for simple solutions, and believe in the principles of open-source software.

Responsibilities:

• Develop and execute the company's technical vision, strategy, and roadmap.
• Lead the design and development of mvup’s infrastructure, to enhance efficiency and security.
• Utilize your deep understanding of cryptography to ensure the security of the protocol and the implementation of the right tools.
• Recruit, build, and lead a high-performing technical team. Provide mentorship, training, and guidance to ensure the team's success and growth.

Qualifications:

• A strong background in blockchain technology with a proven track record of working on rollup infrastructure and layer 2 scaling solutions.
• Deep understanding of cryptographic algorithms and security protocols.
• Extensive knowledge of the blockchain technology stack, including familiarity with major projects and their technology stacks.
• Experience in managing and leading technical teams, fostering a culture of growth, and driving technical excellence.

We value individual needs and are open to offering generous terms to outstanding candidates. Both compensation and location are flexible. If you excel in roles that encourage self-direction and autonomy, let’s hear from you.
