Decentralized Compute at World Scale
Monad Labs is a venture-backed startup building the Monad blockchain, a high-performance smart contract platform built to bring world adoption to decentralized apps. Monad delivers 1000x the throughput of Ethereum—10,000 transactions per second—while maintaining backward-compatibility for Ethereum smart contracts, offering users and developers the best of both worlds.
Founded by Jump Trading alums, our team solves challenging problems in distributed systems engineering and low-latency optimization, authoring novel open source code to implement a new, high-performance, high-reliability, high-value system.
After recently raising a $19 million seed round backed by Dragonfly Capital, Placeholder Capital, Naval Ravikant, and other leaders in the crypto space, we are hiring a few more exceptional engineers who want to work on challenging and impactful problems in a fast-paced environment.
The Role
We are looking for strong software engineers with deep experience in low-level systems engineering and performance optimization.
The Monad blockchain consists of a stack-based virtual machine for executing on-chain programs, and a Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) consensus mechanism for maintaining consistent state across distributed network. You’ll use your knowledge of systems behavior and architecture to make performance and feature improvements to the blockchain system.
You’ll be part of a lean, focused team shipping a massively impactful system. You’ll design new features and identify optimizations that advance the system’s limits. We think that you'll find the work very challenging and rewarding. Experience with crypto is not expected.
Requirements:
Bonus:
Working at Monad Labs means doing challenging work on a high-impact problem with exceptional teammates.

Salary and benefits
Minimum full-time salary of $250,000. (**This is not a guarantee of compensation or salary; a final offer amount may vary based on factors including but not limited to experience and geographic location.)
Monad Labs’ benefits include unlimited and encouraged paid time off; insurance coverage; home office equipment stipend; monthly wellness/fitness stipend; and 10 company-observed holidays.
The majority of our team is in NYC and works together a few days a week.Â
We are a tech startup using low-latency programming, compiler optimization, and multithreaded computing to build an ultra-high-performance smart contract platform. We are on a mission to enable the next generation of decentralized apps for the next generation of blockchain users—more complex apps requiring higher compute budgets, providing services to many more people.
