The mission of Trust Machines is to grow the Bitcoin economy. We’ve recently raised $150M to realize this vision, build Bitcoin apps, and the open-source technologies required to unleash the true potential of Bitcoin for DeFi and Decentralized Applications.

Zest Protocol is on a mission to expand the Bitcoin economy by building the first on-chain Bitcoin capital markets. We’re building a Bitcoin lending protocol that enables Bitcoin liquidity providers to earn Bitcoin yield through professionally managed lending pools. Zest pools lend to the most credit-worthy participants in the Bitcoin economy, allowing them to borrow against their future earnings and thus growing the Bitcoin economy.

We are a remote friendly-company — with our headquarters in New York and a strong commitment to ensuring people can do great work here and thrive without having to live near an office. This role is open to candidates across the world.

Respond to and fix issues raised by security audits
Communicate and work closely with developer team
What We’re Looking For:
2+ years of Solidity or other smart contract language development
Demonstrable experience of deploying smart contracts run in blockchain protocols
Knowledge of security best practices in smart contract languages (knowledge of reentrancy attacks, frontrunning, int overflow and underflow, other exploits..)
Proven architectural design skills for creating efficient code patterns optimized for speed and performance
Experience auditing contracts
4+ years of experience with Rust or other core programming language core programming languages (C / C# / C++ / python / other relevant)
Strong computer science background
Experience with web wallets
BONUS: Experience with lisp programming language
We’d Also Like to See:
Love for Bitcoin and crypto
Self-motivated & experience in working with small teams
Attitude of humbleness towards technology and the risks of creating problems from trying to solve problems too early
Experience building applications that interact with blockchains
We’d love to hear from you even if you don’t have experience or interest in every bullet. There’s no perfect candidate and we want to find the right fit, even if it’s different than we imagine. We especially would like to meet underrepresented/underestimated candidates.
