CAREERS

You may find yourself doing all of the following:

• Conducting comprehensive security assessments of blockchain-based systems, focusing on web3 security and smart contract security
• Writing malicious smart contracts to exploit and identify vulnerabilities in the Hedera blockchain
• Developing and implementing security strategies and best practices for the Hedera blockchain protocols
• Collaborating with development teams to integrate security measures into the design and implementation of blockchain solutions
• Designing and executing penetration testing and vulnerability assessments on blockchain networks and associated components
• Staying updated on emerging threats and vulnerabilities in the blockchain space and providing guidance on mitigation strategies
• Educating internal stakeholders on blockchain security best practices and principles
• Contributing to the development of security tools and frameworks tailored for blockchain environments
• Assisting in incident response activities related to blockchain security incidents
• Participating in security awareness training programs for internal stakeholders

Qualification Requirements:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, Blockchain, Cryptography, or related field (or equivalent experience)
• 8+ years of experience in product security, application security, or penetration testing
• of which 2+ years of experience in blockchain security, smart contract auditing, or related roles
• Proficiency in smart contract languages such as Solidity or Rust and familiarity with blockchain platforms like Ethereum; knowledge of the Hedera Blockchain is a plus
