About Diligence
Consensys Diligence helps developers and smart contract architects to build more secure blockchain and smart contract applications. Our full remote team, distributed all over the world, is supporting the high demand for smart contract audits in the ever growing ecosystem. We are proud to help a fast growing list of clients, including major financial institutions, corporates and crypto / DeFi native companies such as Aave, 0x, Balancer, Uniswap, Status and many more. Our aim is to make blockchain safer.
We are the creators of the MythX security analysis service, the Scribble runtime verification tool for Ethereum smart contracts, and we are leading standard setting industry references and tools, including: SWC Registry, Smart Contract Best Practices, and Blockchain Security Database, Legions (Ethereum/EVM Node Security Toolkit), Solidity Visual Developer VScode extension, and many more.
About the role
We are looking for passionate smart contract security researchers or developers.
Candidates should have a strong understanding of security primitives and be up-to-date with current exploits. Awareness of the current DeFi landscape is a big plus, and experience with exploitation techniques of financial protocols is a valued skill. You should also be aware of how the EVM works, and the idiosyncrasies which can lead to vulnerabilities when developers don’t properly understand them. You will have the opportunity to work with and learn from some of the brightest minds in the space, to see how we approach hacking, threat modelling, scanning, auditing, designing and enhancing the security of smart contracts across the board.
Alongside client work, we also provide you with plenty of time for research and development efforts where you can push the state of the art and science of blockchain security.
Most of the work can be done remotely from wherever you are; little travel is anticipated (most of the team works remotely around the world). Along with a focus on technical excellence, we also believe firmly that culture and processes play an essential role in security.
We are looking for exceptionally intellectual, bright and technically driven individuals who can communicate their ideas clearly while working with clients to achieve their security objectives.
