Description

  • Ideate and prototype high-leverage Uniswap v4 hook concepts for different market segments and trade sizes.
  • Translate market opportunities into concrete hook specifications with adoption and measurement plans.
  • Own the full lifecycle of hook development from whiteboard concept to audited mainnet deployment.
  • Publish reference implementations, hook templates, and living specifications that other teams can extend safely.
  • Design integration paths and supporting tooling for routers, aggregators, intent layers, vaults, lenders, and other DeFi partners.
  • Threat model hooks, define invariants, and collaborate on fuzzing, formal verification, and external audits.
  • Instrument hook behavior with events, metrics, and dashboards to evaluate flow, MEV, LP PnL, and liquidity quality.
  • Run controlled experiments and tune hook parameters based on observed trading and liquidity performance.
  • Pair program, review code, and support external teams building related DeFi infrastructure and adapters.
  • Benchmark and optimize gas performance while maintaining correctness and security.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of smart-contract engineering experience, including 2+ years shipping production DeFi at protocol teams.
  • Deep Solidity and EVM internals knowledge, with strong Foundry, fuzzing, and property-testing experience.
  • Practical understanding of Uniswap v4 architecture, including PoolManager, Hooks, singleton design, state scoping, and callback surfaces.
  • Practical understanding of Uniswap v3 concentrated liquidity mechanics.
  • Strong knowledge of common smart-contract security pitfalls and best practices.
  • Experience with liquidity routing infrastructure such as aggregators, routers, and solvers.
  • Demonstrated product sense in DeFi, including incentives, MEV, LP/trader UX, and distribution strategy.
  • A portfolio of shipped, battle-tested contracts and public design docs, posts, or talks.
  • Experience shipping a Uniswap v4 hook on mainnet is a strong preferred signal.
  • Strong, organized testing practices and test-driven design experience are preferred.

Benefits

  • Opportunity to work on open financial infrastructure at the forefront of DeFi.
  • Mission-driven work supporting the growth, decentralization, and sustainability of the Uniswap ecosystem.
  • Small, senior teams with high ownership and low bureaucracy.
  • A product-focused, data-anchored environment that emphasizes shipping, measuring, and iterating.
  • A security-conscious development process with staged rollouts and clear escape hatches.
  • Work that treats protocol primitives as public goods designed for broad ecosystem adoption.
