We’re building a Web3 developer reputation platform that creates verifiable developer profiles from on-chain activity, smart contract deployments, attestations, project history, technical contributions, and AI-based analysis.
We’re looking for an experienced Senior AI Protocol Engineer to design and improve the AI systems behind developer analysis, reputation scoring, technical evidence processing, and protocol-level decision logic.
Design and build AI-powered developer analysis and reputation systems
Develop scoring, ranking, classification, and technical evaluation pipelines
Integrate LLMs and AI models with blockchain and on-chain data
Build structured workflows for processing GitHub activity, smart contracts, attestations, project history, and other technical evidence
Design AI agents and automated reasoning workflows for developer verification and assessment
Improve model reliability, consistency, explainability, and resistance to manipulation
Develop evaluation frameworks for AI-generated reputation scores and technical assessments
Work on protocol rules connecting AI outputs with attestations, reputation data, and smart contracts
Design APIs and backend services for AI inference and protocol integrations
Optimize inference cost, latency, caching, and scalability
Identify prompt injection, data poisoning, Sybil, reputation gaming, and other AI/protocol security risks
Write tests, evaluation tooling, monitoring systems, and technical documentation
5+ years of professional software engineering experience
Strong practical experience in AI, protocol engineering, blockchain infrastructure, or related systems
Experience in one or more of the following areas is especially relevant:
LLM application and protocol engineering
AI agents and autonomous workflows
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
AI evaluation and benchmarking
Structured outputs and tool/function calling
Python / TypeScript
Open-source or commercial LLM integration
Embeddings, vector search, and semantic retrieval
AI inference infrastructure
Reputation, ranking, recommendation, or scoring systems
Blockchain / Web3 data
Smart contracts and attestations
Decentralized identity or verifiable credentials
AI security and adversarial testing
ZKML, verifiable inference, or decentralized AI protocols
You do not need experience with everything. Strong hands-on experience building production AI systems, protocol infrastructure, or AI + Web3 applications is more important than familiarity with every technology listed above.
Experience working with developer tooling, GitHub data, blockchain analytics, reputation systems, or technical assessment platforms is especially relevant.
When applying, please share your strongest technical area and one relevant AI, protocol, or Web3 project you personally designed or built.
