Description

  • Lead end-to-end security audits of Veda’s smart contract systems, including the BoringVault architecture, cross-chain bridge integrations, and DeFi composability patterns.
  • Identify novel attack vectors in vault accounting logic, share pricing mechanisms, and multi-strategy capital allocation systems.
  • Partner with external audit firms to coordinate comprehensive reviews and address findings.
  • Evolve smart contract security standards, testing methodologies, and deployment practices.
  • Mentor smart contract engineers on secure coding patterns, gas optimization trade-offs, and defense-in-depth strategies.
  • Serve as the security subject matter expert in architecture discussions and design reviews.
  • Build and maintain custom security tools such as fuzzing harnesses, invariant testing frameworks, and symbolic execution pipelines.
  • Research emerging DeFi attack patterns and translate findings into defensive measures.
  • Design and implement real-time monitoring systems for on-chain anomaly detection.
  • Lead on-chain security incident response, including root cause analysis, remediation, and maintenance of runbooks and escalation procedures.

Requirements

  • 3+ years writing and auditing production Solidity code.
  • Deep understanding of EVM architecture, opcode-level behavior, gas mechanics, and storage patterns.
  • Proven experience conducting security audits or vulnerability research in DeFi protocols.
  • Experience performing comprehensive smart contract audits from threat modeling through remediation validation.
  • Hands-on experience with testing and analysis tools such as Foundry, Echidna, Slither, Manticore, or similar frameworks.
  • Exceptional written communication skills for technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Professional experience at a tier-1 audit firm, a security role at a leading DeFi protocol, or top placements in competitive audit contests.
  • Familiarity with MEV infrastructure, mempool analysis, and transaction ordering dependencies.
  • Understanding of cross-chain security challenges including bridge architecture, message verification, and multi-chain state synchronization.
  • Track record of discovering high-severity vulnerabilities in production DeFi protocols.
  • Active participation in security communities such as competitive CTFs, bug bounties, or published research is preferred.
  • Experience with symbolic execution and formal verification methods is preferred.
  • Experience with non-EVM environments such as Solana or Move is preferred.

Benefits

  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage for employees.
  • Health coverage support for international contractors through appropriate local or global plans.
  • Flexible time off with no tracked vacation days.
