Job Summary
What You’ll Do
📍All engineers at Thesis focus on complex problem solving, security, supportability, and pragmatic approach to implementation. When applicable, you work towards understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of existing code and work with your team to pragmatically choose what needs changing now and what should be changed over time to hit timelines and successfully deliver secure, stable, working software. We want engineers who are comfortable communicating early and often with their team mates, who can clearly articulate tradeoffs between decisions, and who work well in a culture of continuous feedback aimed at team improvement. You’ll be expected to: 📍Prioritize security and communicate your approach to keeping the system secure. 📍Understand and respect Chesterton’s Fence, approaching problems with the intent to perturb existing systems as little as possible until they are well understood. 📍Navigate ambiguity by asking questions rather than making assumptions. 📍Document your work and its motivations to facilitate conversation. 📍Work to identify issues before they hit production through testing practice. 📍Identify and put users first across the full spectrum of your work—from command-line parameters to APIs.
Requirements
📍At least 3 years experience in a senior role or at least 3 years successful experience as a full stack engineer in a high performance environment. 📍Experience executing against all requirements listed under “Responsibilities”. 📍Strong knowledge of Solidity, including familiarity with standard Solidity tooling and with best practice 📍Solidity patterns like Checks-Effects-Integration.
