Summary

The Engineering Team

At Chainlink Labs, our engineering team pushes the scale and capabilities of decentralized applications across the industry. The Chainlink Network holds >70% market share in the oracle space, solving real-world problems by enabling smart contracts to securely interact with off-chain data/computation.

We value talented and driven craftsmen who work collaboratively to tackle complex challenges, deliver product impact, and grow as builders. Join us and shape the future of blockchain technology and decentralized finance. 

About the Role

Chainlink decentralized oracle networks provide tamper-proof inputs, outputs, and computations to support advanced smart contracts on any blockchain. As the ecosystem continues to grow at an explosive pace we are building the infrastructure to further secure the reliability of our networks and incentivize good behavior 

As an engineer on the Economics Team, you will develop highly impactful products that further secure Chainlink oracle networks to provide best in class off-chain data to the blockchain ecosystem. You will work closely with all functions at Chainlink, from engineering, operations, finance, and marketing to build smart contract driven products end to end.

Your Impact

1. Design and own the end to end delivery of large components of the economic protocols powering the Chainlink ecosystem
2. Work closely with fellow engineers to build the end to end experience for your products, including but not limited to dApps, data services, smart contracts, monitoring, and tooling
3. Partner with product, researchers, and economists to plan ahead and ensure continuity of work over several quarters
4. Collaborate with non-technical stakeholders to ensure you build products that delivery positive user experience and meets business constraints

Requirements
