Description
Chaos Labs is the first automated, on-chain economic security system enabling crypto protocols to optimize risk management and capital efficiency while safeguarding user funds. We analyze protocol mechanics and scenario implications using world-class custom EVM simulations to provide actionable insights.
Our platform is trusted by leading protocols, including Aave, GMX, dYdX, Venus, Uniswap, and others, to manage and secure billions of dollars in assets.
We’re looking for candidates eager to dive deep into leading DeFi protocols and develop data models and pipelines that power advanced risk analysis tools. The dashboards you create will help industry leaders make critical decisions, ensuring the security and stability of their protocols.
Collaboration is key to our success. You’ll work closely with a passionate team of researchers and developers, all committed to building a robust and efficient data platform that is already shaping the future of DeFi.
While prior experience with blockchain technology or DeFi protocols is a plus, it’s not required. What truly matters is your commitment to excellence and your drive to learn and grow in the world of decentralized finance.
Responsibilities
- Collaborate closely with our research team to comprehensively understand new DeFi protocols.
- Design robust data models tailored to the specific DeFi protocol’s risk portfolio. This involves exploring and integrating data from diverse on-chain and off-chain sources, ensuring all necessary data for the risk analysis is captured.
- Develop efficient and highly reliable data pipelines to ingest, validate, and transform raw data from various sources. You'll implement risk-related aggregations to generate actionable insights, ensuring all relevant data is readily available for risk analysis tools.
- Leverage our established platform to design and develop interactive dashboards that provide a comprehensive view of all protocol risk aspects. This empowers our customers to not only understand the overall risk status but also make informed decisions regarding the safety of the protocol.
Requirements
- 5+ years of professional experience in Full stack development (Node.JS, Python).
- Experience with frameworks like React/Angular in web development.
- Experience working with data-oriented products.
- Demonstrated experience working in self-managed, fast-paced environments.
- Interest in learning and mastering the world of decentralized finance.
Considered Advantages
- Experience in DeFi or Blockchain Technology (professionally or privately)
- Bachelor in Computer Science or similar from top universities, military service in relevant technical units, or equivalent experience.
Our Perks:
- Flexible hybrid work environment.
- Competitive PTO (21 days) + sick days (7) + 8 observed US-company holidays.
- 100% employer-paid health benefit options (Medical, dental & vision insurance) for you and your dependents.
- FSA or HSA (pending on selected health insurance).
- Generous 401k plan with employer match.
- Thoughtful Parental Leave Policy.
- Corporate wellness programs with OneMedical, Teladoc, Talkspace, EAP.
- Career growth opportunities at a rapidly expanding, global technology company in an emerging field with personalized professional development.
- Pre-tax Commuter Benefits.
- Salary and seniority level commensurate with experience (range: $153-181K USD)

What We Do
Decentralized blockchain applications introduce a myriad of technical challenges, security vulnerabilities and attack vectors.
With DeFi (decentralized finance) protocols now securing hundreds of billions in value in production, the stakes have never been higher. With new technological primitives and bustling innovation, new security paradigms are required. dApps leverage open source modules and often consume other protocols in order to create new applications. This introduces a dependency heavy software architecture which makes it an ideal candidate for runtime verification.
Chaos Labs is a cloud platform which enables teams to create high-fidelity agent and scenario-based simulations on mainnet forks, offering a real-world testing environment. By providing a rich library of customizable agents and scenarios, teams can rapidly speed up development and reduce their go-to-market time, helping them stay competitive without compromising on the security of their protocol.
Additionally, Chaos Labs focuses on developer tooling and cloud infrastructure, allowing teams to move fast on stable infrastructure. The platform is currently live for protocols on the Ethereum network and later expanding to additional blockchains such as Terra, NEAR and Polygon.
