VP Engineering
About This Role
This is a pivotal leadership position where you will define and execute the engineering strategy for a cutting-edge platform. You will be responsible for architecting and scaling high-performance, secure, and deterministic on-chain systems, directly impacting the precision and scalability of our user experience.
What You'll Be Doing
Define and own the end-to-end engineering strategy for execution engines, market systems, and orchestration layers.
Architect and optimize on-chain execution frameworks for Solana and EVM chains, ensuring deterministic performance and high throughput.
Lead the design and scaling of ultra-low-latency order routing, real-time data indexing, and smart contract pipelines.
Build and scale infrastructure to support thousands of concurrent active users with consistent performance.
Establish and enforce technical standards, QA rigor, and automated CI/CD pipelines for multi-chain deployments.
Hire, develop, and retain a high-caliber engineering team across protocol, backend, and front-end functions.
Implement performance observability, fault tolerance, and comprehensive security frameworks.
Partner with executive leadership to translate business and product goals into clear engineering roadmaps.
Drive a culture of deterministic execution, high-velocity shipping, and deep technical accountability.
What We're Looking For
10+ years in software engineering, with 5+ years in senior leadership roles.
Demonstrated experience scaling complex applications to thousands of daily active users with sub-second execution performance.
Proven track record of building on-chain applications on Solana and/or EVM environments.
Strong background in distributed, low-latency, and high-throughput system design.
Proficiency in Rust, TypeScript, and modern architectural patterns for performance-critical systems.
Deep understanding of transaction life cycles, program orchestration, and deterministic system design.
Strong leadership in building, mentoring, and aligning multidisciplinary engineering teams under high-execution conditions.
Why Join Us
Lead the technical direction of an advanced on-chain execution and liquidity platform.
Work at the forefront of Solana and EVM ecosystems.
Drive a culture of innovation, deterministic execution, and high-velocity shipping.
Build and scale a high-caliber engineering team.
Translate business vision into measurable engineering outcomes.
