Job description


Discover the opportunity

We are hiring a Chief Technology Officer to lead the technical evolution of a pioneering decentralized exchange protocol. Our client is redefining how liquidity operates by moving away from traditional automated market models that force liquidity providers to absorb losses through arbitrage. Instead, they have built a sophisticated oracle guided execution layer where pricing is anchored to real world primary venues. This ensures that assets like major cryptocurrencies and tokenized equities stay aligned with global market prices, creating a more stable and profitable environment for institutional and retail participants alike.

Discover the role

As the Chief Technology Officer, you will be the technical architect and visionary leader driving the development of this next generation trading infrastructure. You will oversee the transition from initial concepts to a robust, scalable production environment, managing a high performing engineering team. Your focus will be on ensuring the protocol remains modular, secure, and capable of supporting complex integrations such as real world assets and custom pricing logic for market makers. This is a rare chance to shape the foundational execution layer of the future financial system.

Discover the requirements

Proven track record of leading technical teams within the blockchain or high frequency trading sectors.

Deep technical mastery of Ethereum Virtual Machine and Solidity smart contract development.

Extensive experience in designing and deploying complex decentralized protocols or financial exchange systems.

Strong understanding of oracle integrations and how to mitigate risks associated with price feeds.

Ability to bridge the gap between complex mathematical financial modeling and scalable software engineering.

Prior experience managing the full software development lifecycle from initial whitepaper to mainnet launch.

Entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to navigate the fast paced and evolving regulatory landscape of decentralized finance.

Excellent communication skills to represent the technical roadmap to both internal stakeholders and the wider community.
