Job Description:
Harmony is an open blockchain with data sharding and fast
finality. Social games and community AI can use our onchain tokens
for micro-payments, smart contracts for market pricing, and
zero-knowledge proofs for data privacy. Harmony’s mission is to
scale trust and create a radically fair economy. Our platform is
decentralized, scalable and secure to settle any transactions
without trusted parties. Building a (Rocket)Ship We are a Day-1
startup. Blockchains are becoming the foundation of the global
economy, yet their adoption is at only 1%. That means that you as a
pioneer and developer are shaping the future with 10X impact.
Harmony is a community-driven project, a network with hundreds of
applications, and a team wearing crazy ambitions on their sleeves.
Because the invincible summer awaits! For engineers, we value your
deep understanding of how bytes work. You are a tool maker, a
system hacker, and a math nerd all in ONE. Your typical day
involves prototyping a top-conference research paper, debugging and
profiling in hexdecimal, or writing updates to coordinate
asynchronously with tens of engineers in the open. Building a
blockchain is like jumping off the cliff while assembling the plane
engine on the fly – but, if you can thrive in chaos, why NOT? For
creatives, we approve your obsession with user experience. You are
a product designer, a brand manager, and an industry analyst all in
ONE. Your typical day involves studying what delights and what
hurts through hard metrics, writing long-form narratives on the
why's and the do's, or scrumming tasks for a product launch to
iterate with millions of users. Building a community is like
sharing your blue heart while keeping the culture alive for decades
– but, if this is your dream of 50 years, start NOW? See our
project vision on Social A(G)I and Shard 1 . Responsibilities
Develop user interfaces for Harmony-based DeFi applications and
DApps. Ensure seamless smart contract and wallet integration across
platforms. Optimize app performance and implement community
feedback. Requirements Bachelor degree in computer science –
specializing in kernel, data structures or compilers. 3 to 5 years
of working experience including 1 year of startup experience.
60-hour work week, daily 4-hour overlap with Pacific Time.
Exceptional communication and people skills. We may use artificial
intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process,
such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing
responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not
replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made
by humans. If you would like more information about how your data
is processed, please contact us.
