This role presents an opportunity to be an early and significant contributor to a project that we believe will be important in its own right.
Ignition is an open-source typescript-based deployment system for the Solidity ecosystem. We recently launched a public beta and will be concentrating over the next year on gaining users by adding useful features based on user feedback that are robust, well-documented, and delightful. We are a small team (2 people currently) with lots still to be defined and lots to do.
This is a fully-remote role, and we’re open to candidates applying within UTC+2 to UTC-4 timezones.
In this role, you will be:
Designing and implementing large new features based on our roadmap
Writing up documents and tutorials to explain new features to our users
Managing releases
Supporting and mentoring other developers on the team
Providing bug fixes via GitHub issues and support via our discord channel and telegram group
Shaping the roadmap to get us to our goal of being the best deployment system in Ethereum as judged by the community
