Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end technical direction for Aether Protocol across contracts, services, and integrations
• Define system boundaries, trust assumptions, risk parameters, and acceptance criteria
• Review Solidity and backend designs for solvency, oracle, upgrade, and operational risks
• Sequence delivery into testable milestones and keep architecture decisions tied to implementationMentor engineers and keep communication clear with stakeholders on scope, risk, and trade-offs

Requirements

• Proven technical leadership on DeFi, protocol, or high-stakes distributed systems
• Hands‑on depth in smart contracts and the services around them (APIs, indexing, or ops)
• Ability to threat‑model money‑market systems and drive audit‑ready engineering practices
• Strong facilitation skills across design reviews, prioritization, and incident‑ready planning
• Experience shipping systems where correctness and operator visibility matter as much as features

Nice to have

• Prior technical lead experience on lending, liquidity, or governance protocols
• Familiarity with Solana account models for Aether’s longer‑term architecture direction
