Protocol Engineer

Career Renew is recruiting for one of its clients a Protocol Engineer - candidates need to be based in N America or Europe.

We believe that the future of security is through open-source software and tools that enable users to share security practices, what we call open security. We take a different stance than most of our competitors, who build closed-source software.

We believe that security software can be open source, without needing "security through obscurity", by crafting protocols and pieces of software that are of sound design and thoughtfully implemented.

Our team solves one of the most challenging problems in Web3: Security.

As the first Protocol Engineer on our team, you will spearhead the development of the Credible Layer. Your role will be critical in shaping our protocol strategy, designing a secure and efficient mechanism, and guiding its evolution.
