• 2–4 years of professional software engineering experience
• 1–3 years working with Rust and Web3 technologies
• Proven experience deploying production smart contracts handling real funds
• Strong understanding of blockchain fundamentals and smart contract security
• Ownership mindset with a strong passion for DeFi innovation
