Developing EVM-based smart contracts, contributing to Ethereum execution environments, and building applications to enhance blockchain capabilities in a collaborative setting.
𝚝𝟷 is a rollup that introduces real-time proofs to unify Ethereum and the rollup ecosystem.
Our mission at 𝚝𝟷 is to ensure Ethereum is not only the most decentralized blockchain ecosystem but also the blockchain with the best user and developer experience. We believe that the composability fragmentation introduced by rollups’ siloed execution is currently a major obstacle to that end. Therefore, we are building 𝚝𝟷, a TEE-enabled rollup that introduces real-time proofs, RTP. This allows for instant settlement on Ethereum and therefore enables its unification with the rollup ecosystem.
What you’ll be doing
- Developing, deploying, and maintaining EVM-based smart contracts, ensuring they are secure, efficient, and production-ready for Ethereum mainnet or rollups.
- Contributing to the development of RETH, our Rust-based Ethereum execution environment, by collaborating on feature enhancements and providing insights on relevant EVM improvements.
- Building proof-of-concept applications, like t-dex and other primitives, to demonstrate and expand the capabilities of 𝚝𝟷, enabling other developers to innovate on our platform.
- Staying up-to-date with the latest Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) and actively apply new innovations to 𝚝𝟷’s development efforts.
- Collaborating with a multidisciplinary team to bridge smart contract development with core blockchain infrastructure.
Must-haves
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a similar technical field.
- Proven experience developing and deploying EVM-based smart contracts, with a strong track record of shipping production-grade code to Ethereum mainnet or other rollups.
- Hands-on experience working at a company with a mainnet product, demonstrating an understanding of the end-to-end lifecycle of Ethereum-based solutions.
- Deep expertise in leveraging the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), with the ability to operate at the cutting edge of EVM innovation and execution.
- Strong understanding of smart contract design, security, and optimization specifically for mainnet environments.
This is a remote role, but we only accept candidates from time zones between Eastern Time (ET) and Central European Time (CET).
Nice-to-Have
- Interest and expertise in staying updated with Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) and contributing to the broader Ethereum community.
- Rust programming experience or familiarity, particularly with blockchain development tools.
- Open-source contributions to Ethereum-related projects (e.g., Foundry, Hardhat) or other notable repositories.
- Passion for attending and engaging with the blockchain ecosystem (e.g., attending events like Devcon).

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
