Senior Full Stack Web3 Engineer

Monad Labs is the team building Monad, the performant and parallel EVM Layer-1 blockchain. We are a team of systems engineers and community builders who are on a mission to help crypto eat the world. After recently raising $225M in series A funding, led by Paradigm, we are growing our team.

The Role

As a Senior Full Stack Web3 Engineer, you will design and build high-quality webapps that integrate seamlessly with on-chain technologies. You will work with both internal and external counterparts to implement secure and scalable applications. The ideal candidate has a strong web3 full stack development background - building both frontends and smart contracts.

What You Will Do

• Design and build dapps from start to finish.
• Design the software architecture of frontend and backend dapps.
• Adhere to best practices in web security, blockchain integration, and performance.
• Ensure responsiveness and cross-platform support for web applications and interfaces.
• Work with cross-functional teams (design, DevRel, ecosystem) to develop requirements and design the product.
• Implement and optimize wallet integration features (e.g., MetaMask, WalletConnect) to allow secure interaction between users and the Monad blockchain.
• Debug, troubleshoot, and improve existing applications, focusing on reliability and stability.

Who You Are

• 4 years of experience as a full stack engineer
• 2 years of smart contract development experience
• Expert in JavaScript/TypeScript, React/Next.js (or similar frameworks like Svelte/SvelteKit)
• Experience with wallet connectors, indexers, and the Ethereum transaction lifecycle along with related Web3 APIs (e.g. web3.js)
• Familiarity with both relational and non-relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MongoDB).
• Experience working closely with design and developer teams to build applications that enhance user and developer experience.
• Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and a collaborative mindset.

Why Work with Us

• Challenging problems. You’ll work on extremely challenging problems with massive impact.
• Huge opportunity. The Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) standard is ubiquitous, but existing EVM-compatible chains are slow and bandwidth-constrained. Monad’s core innovations offer developers the best of both worlds (portability and performance) and are a game-changer for mass user adoption in crypto.
• The right team. You’ll be part of a small, exceptional team (bios here).
• Culture. We’re a lean team working together to achieve very ambitious goals. We are united in our culture of collaboration, low ego, and high-quality output. As an early member of our team, you’ll help continue to shape our culture.
• Compensation. You’ll receive a competitive salary and equity package.
• Resources and growth. We’re well-capitalized, with backing from leading venture funds like Paradigm, Electric Capital, Greenoaks, Dragonfly, and Coinbase Ventures. We keep a lean team, and this is a rare opportunity to join. You’ll learn a lot and grow as our company scales.
