About the Company
Hi, we're Ondo Finance. Our mission is to provide institutional-grade, blockchain-enabled investment products and services. We have both a technology arm that develops decentralized finance technology, and an finance arm that creates and manages tokenized funds. We are the first and current market leader in tokenizing exposure to US Treasuries and are continuously rolling out new tokenized real-world assets. We are also focused on incubating protocols that can support both tokenized real-world assets and traditional crypto.

About the Role
We're looking for a Solidity engineer to help us continue to develop products and protocols across multiple EVM-compatible blockchains, as well as on-chain tooling to support users and promote security and trust.

You might enjoy working here if you're looking for...

    • Competitive compensation including salary, tokens, and/or equity (according to your preferences). We're well-funded and believe that great talent deserves great compensation.
    • Full benefits (medical, vision, and dental) and flexible vacation policy (PTO).
    • Small remote-first team. You'll be an early team member helping shape our vision, culture, and technical practices.
    • A+ colleagues. Our leadership team includes alumni from Goldman Sachs Digital Assets and Bridgewater
    • Best-in-class investors. We are proud to be backed by leading funds and strategics (incl. Founders Fund, Pantera, GoldenTree, Coinbase, and CoinFund) and angels (incl. founders of AngelList, Anchorage, and Aave).

What we're looking for...

    • Blockchain Development Experience: Prior experience building crypto-native projects deployed on an EVM mainnet — especially using Solidity and Ethereum development tools (e.g. Foundry, Hardhat, OpenZeppelin); experience in DeFi, testing, security, or auditing are a plus
    • Communication: strong written and oral communication skills.
    • Passion for Crypto: whether it's building, investing, yield farming, minting, voting, or other activities, your enthusiasm for the crypto space is evident.
    • Mindset: a proactive, can-do attitude, ready to tackle challenges head-on.
    • Timezone: within +/- 3 hours of PST, ideally situated in the Americas.
    • Familiarity with blockchain fundamentals, the EVM, and decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols
    • 3+ years of software engineering experience, with at least 2 years in smart contract development building crypto-native projects deployed on an EVM chain

People who do well here tend to...

    • Plan, architect, implement, test, and document their code well
    • Be able to clearly explain the designs they implement
    • Respond to (and act on) feedback during code review
    • Have "strong opinions, loosely held"
    • Have the ability to deliver when requirements are vague
    • Communicate in both written and spoken forms
    • Handle disagreement well
    • Improve the culture
    • Emphasize continuous learning
    • Assist, guide, and mentor others
