About Agora

Agora is a working towards a new paradigm for group collaboration by creating the tools for communities work together onchain. This is not yet-another-productivity-saas. We believe that to enable the next era of collaboration, we need software that can bend current and create new incentives. No amount of removing friction will change how we work together if our reward functions are misaligned.

So to this end, Agora is working tirelessly on the best end-to-end governance platform for crypto protocols – the first instance of at scale onchain collaboration. Leading communities like Optimism, ENS, Uniswap, Nouns, and more rely on Agora to coordinate their community around critical protocol upgrades, ecosystem funding, and steward their ecosystem for the future.

But that’s not where we stop. Our goal is to build deep collaboration tools for people who couldn’t care less about crypto so that one day (soon), your friends back home are using Agora without ever knowing we’re on Ethereum.

What you'll do

This is a technical leadership role where you’ll be working as a peer with our engineering and product cofounders in driving the protocol strategy, implementation, and ensuring they work well with our applications. Day to day, you will:

• Architect and build smart contract protocols that secure billions of dollars of value and the future of many of the most important protocols in Ethereum
• In particular, drive decentralization technical strategy for the Optimism Superchain
• Drive standardization in crypto protocols by designing and defining interfaces and standards
• Mentor and train other team members and teams on smart contract engineering best practices

What we are looking for

We are looking for a solidity developer who has a passion for pushing the boundaries of onchain governance and decentralized, collective creation forward. We’d love to work with you if…

• You have a strong work ethic and care about making day by day progress on what you’re building, but can also reserve a part of your brain untethered from the earth – thinking what’s at the boundary of the possible.
• You consider how your code will be read, written and indexed by applications as a core part of good protocol engineering. You understand how data gets into the EVM, how it get into applications, and how can you do that efficiently.
• You are familiar with the most common crypto protocols and standards and are able to explain how and why they work. You don’t need to have worked on these contracts directly, but you should be comfortable explaining their design patterns and extrapolating into your work at Agora.
• You keep up with the latest frontier developments in crypto: zkp, account abstraction, mev, L2s etc. This is not a research engineer role, but working familiarity with what’s at the frontier will help you steer our protocol engineering thinking in the right direction in the long run.
• You are proud and passionate about Open Source. Bonus if you’ve made contributions to projects.
• You love onchain governance like us :)

What we offer

• Ownership – both in responsibility and equity. We’re a small team with high trust and expectations of each other. We want you to own a sizable chunk of of the product and company, and structure our compensation accordingly.
• Competitive benefits – in addition to good health and dental benefits, we trust all employees with a no-limit company card and equal access to our executive assistant to use however they see fit to increase their productivity.
• A strong team – we’re a small team that values experience, character and integrity. You’ll work with peers you respect, and who respect you.
• A seat at the table – you will come to all off sites, and be part of all strategic discussions. We’re hiring for a technical leader, and will treat you as such.
• A path to grow – our goal is to retain all early hires as senior leaders as the company scales. We believe folks with the best expertise and deep context should lead organizations, even if they don’t traditionally self-identify as people managers.
• Remote friendly, but PST or EST timezones preferred.

About Agora

Agora is a working towards a new paradigm for group collaboration by creating the tools for communities work together onchain. This is not yet-another-productivity-saas. We believe that to enable the next era of collaboration, we need software that can bend current and create new incentives. No amount of removing friction will change how we work together if our reward functions are misaligned.

So to this end, Agora is working tirelessly on the best end-to-end governance platform for crypto protocols – the first instance of at scale onchain collaboration. Leading communities like Optimism, ENS, Uniswap, Nouns, and more rely on Agora to coordinate their community around critical protocol upgrades, ecosystem funding, and steward their ecosystem for the future.

But that’s not where we stop. Our goal is to build deep collaboration tools for people who couldn’t care less about crypto so that one day (soon), your friends back home are using Agora without ever knowing we’re on Ethereum.

What you'll do

We're hiring a backend-leaning fullstack engineer to work with our engineering and in driving Agora's application development strategy and implementation. This is a technical leadership position where you will:

• Architect and develop complex systems and foundational infrastructure components used by our engineering team
• Manage individual projects priorities, deadlines and deliverables with your technical expertise
• Mentor and train other team members on design techniques and coding standards

What we are looking for

We are looking for a backend-leaning fullstack developer who has a passion for pushing the boundaries of onchain governance and decentralized, collective creation forward. We’d love to work with you if...

• You have a strong work ethic and care about making day by day progress on what you’re building, but can also reserve a part of your brain untethered from the earth – thinking what’s at the boundary of the possible.
• You are familiar with how applications in crypto interface with protocols. You don't need to be a solidity expert, but you've got a long wallet history and have used and built many dapps.
• You care deeply about craft and quality – you're frustrated that after all these years, most crypto applications are not even close to their peers in web2.
• You are proud and passionate about Open Source. Bonus if you’ve made contributions to projects.
• You love onchain governance like us :)

What we offer

• Ownership – both in responsibility and equity. We’re a small team with high trust and expectations of each other. We want you to own a sizable chunk of of the product and company, and structure our compensation accordingly.
• Competitive benefits – in addition to good health and dental benefits, we trust all employees with a no-limit company card and equal access to our executive assistant to use however they see fit to increase their productivity.

• A seat at the table – you will come to all off sites, and be part of all strategic discussions. We’re hiring for a technical leader, and will treat you as such.
• A path to grow – our goal is to retain all early hires as senior leaders as the company scales. We believe folks with the best expertise and deep context should lead organizations, even if they don’t traditionally self-identify as people managers.

About ABC Labs:

We believe access to stable money is a human right. Almost two billion people around the world don't have a safe place to store their money or are excluded from financial services such as payments and credit. Struggles with inflationary currencies prevent families and communities from building basic economic security. To help solve this, we created the Reserve Protocol, a free, permissionless platform on the Ethereum mainnet and Base L2 to build, deploy and govern asset-backed currencies referred to as “RTokens.” RTokens are always 1:1 asset-backed, allowing for permissionless minting and redeeming on-chain by users without the need for any middlemen. RTokens are over-collateralized and by default governed independently by RSR stakers in a fully decentralized manner.

About The Role The ShapeShift DAO is looking to backfill the position of Engineering Workstream Leader. This document outlines the role and responsibilities of the position.

Context ShapeShift DAO is a decentralized autonomous organization. It does not exist as a company or a legal entity in any jurisdiction, it entirely exists on chain https://forum.shapeshift.com/thread/dao-treasuries-and-multisigs-43646

DAO governance can be considered the board of directors, and workstreams can be thought of as individual departments with associated budgets. Workstreams have a single leader, that is responsible for managing that budget, hiring, and firing within that team.

Workstream leaders could be considered the C suite in a traditional organization, however there is no CEO role - all workstream leaders report directly to governance.

Organizational decisions, such as creation and renewal of workstream budgets, and appointment of workstream leaders, happen by a DAO governance vote.

The current workstream budget was approved through to the end of March 2024 here https://snapshot.org/#/shapeshiftdao.eth/proposal/0x306dd79215c8463a59db06d3d2fd25cb311 1b1305a62fe0bc16eda8a515c84ee

Working in a DAO has some differences from traditional companies.

The main differences can be outlined as

● Contributors are paid in crypto, typically USDC.

● Contributors do not receive a W2, 1099 or equivalent. Accounting is the responsibility of the contributors.

● No benefits are included with the role. Many US based contributors choose to use https://opolis.co/ which provides group healthcare, conversion of crypto to USD, and can provide a W2 and do tax withholding.

Role The role reports directly to ShapeShift DAO governance - it does not have a line manager. It can be thought of as a mix of VP of Engineering (people) and CTO (tech). The role requires up-todate abilities in architecting, managing, and contributing to the codebase. The role is responsible for publicly preparing, requesting, and managing a budget via ShapeShift DAO governance. An example of doing such is here https://snapshot.org/#/shapeshiftdao.eth/proposal/0x306dd79215c8463a59db06d3d2fd25cb311 1b1305a62fe0bc16eda8a515c84ee

The role interacts most closely with the other Workstream Leaders, namely Product, Marketing, Operations (QA). The role is responsible for the development, maintenance, and uptime of the platform. A QA team (operations) assists with quality assurance of releases, triaging reporting of bugs, and user support. The candidate should possess 8+ years experience at a Senior Software Engineer or above level, and should possess several years experience in a leadership role, e.g. managing people, budgets, cross-cutting concerns, and competing priorities.

The candidate must possess a strong strategic and commercial focus in addition to technical skills, as the lack of a CEO role means these functions are absorbed by and amongst workstream leaders.

Team The role currently has 4 direct reports - all Senior Software Engineers, fully remote, and globally distributed. Two engineers are on AEDT (Sydney), one CEST (Europe), and one MST (US Mountain Time). The team can loosely be thought of as 3 frontend and 1 backend, though all engineers should be considered full stack. The team also works closely with 1 designer/developer on the product team. The role requires availability in the US time zone where most active contributors reside, with some flexibility, and communication is required with contributors in European and Australian time zones.

Stack

Common

The stack is heavy on crypto/web3 and API integrations. Experience or at least strong familiarity with crypto concepts is a must.

Frontend

The frontend application is a large React + Redux responsive web application, that’s wrapped in a thin React Native app for deployment on iOS and Android platforms. https://github.com/shapeshift/web

Backend https://github.com/shapeshift/unchained/

The backend is relatively thin on business logic and heavy on devops, and mainly consists of deploying and maintaining various blockchain nodes, currently Ethereum, THORChain, Dogecoin, Optimism, Avalanche C-Chain, Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin, Cosmos, BNB Smart Chain, Polygon, Gnosis, Arbitrum One, and Litecoin nodes. There is an indexing layer that sits in front of the node infrastructure that serves as the application.

The application layer is roughly a 70/30 split of TypeScript/Golang. All backend infrastructure is managed in a Kubernetes cluster hosted on AWS.

You might be a great fit if: The engineers work with a high degree of autonomy so the role is a great fit for a “servant leader.”

● You thrive in ambiguous situations, approach work with an inquisitive open mind, and are quick to adjust your assumptions if proven wrong.

● You’re technical enough to challenge engineers' assumptions with good questions about architecture and product decisions.

● You’re clear and persuasive in writing and in person

● You can pivot to new opportunities quickly. Crypto is constantly evolving. What you worked on last month may not be what you work on today, and that excites you. You’re not looking for a boring job.

● You like rolling up your sleeves and shipping on the front lines.

Requirements

● 2+ years of Engineering Management experience

● 8 years of experience in a Software Engineering role

● Founding experience or BS or MS in Computer Science or equivalent technical field

● Experience managing and hiring top talent, building diverse and inclusive teams from scratch.

Tribute Labs is seeking a talented individual to join our team to help support a curated network of decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs).
