About the Role

We are looking for a backend engineer/full-stack developer to join our team as our first engineering hire who’d have the following responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and launch the V2 of PrimeVault’s core custody architecture that utilizes cutting-edge cryptography, hardware enclave technology and formal verification techniques, and underpins our next-generation enterprise wallet, tokenization, and on-chain trading and finance platform

  • Our forthcoming v2 custody stack revolutionizes non-custodial wallet services, establishing new standards in security, user autonomy, and introducing non-custodial automations for unparalleled efficiency.
  • You get to work alongside deep industry experts to implement cutting-edge technologies that enshrine hard cryptographic guarantees of security, trust, build reliability, and access integrity/policy adherence in our novel user-controlled automations/wallet infra.
  • In particular, our V2 makes use of hardware enclaves and KMS systems (widely available via cloud providers like AWS and Azure) in a unique design that guarantees wallet keys are solely controlled by the users and all enclave environments are strictly self-upgradable.

• Work closely with the founding team to translate business requirements into robust technical solutions.

• Stay abreast of emerging technologies and advancements in web3, blockchain, and secure enclave technology to integrate into our platform.
