Design & build the Solver framework: Architect the algorithms, execution strategies, and infrastructure that power solver competition, quote aggregation, and intent-ready execution workflows.
Drive technical excellence: Lead deep code and design reviews, make high-impact architectural decisions, and uphold the highest engineering standards.
Collaborate across teams: Work with product, research, and ecosystem partners to align Solver capabilities with the NEAR Intents roadmap.
Guarantee performance at scale: Ensure low-latency, high-throughput execution across chains and decentralized environments.
Innovate Solver economics: Shape incentive structures, competition mechanisms, and cryptoeconomic models to grow and sustain Solver participation.
Stay hands-on: Balance leadership with active coding, prototyping, and tackling the most complex technical challenges in real-time.

7+ years of software engineering experience.
Deep expertise in distributed systems, high-performance networking, or large-scale infrastructure.
Strong familiarity with smart contracts, on‑chain execution frameworks, or cryptoeconomics.
Fluency in Typescript and Go is a must (experience in Rust is a plus).
Proven ability to lead globally distributed engineering teams.
Strong at abstracting complexity: breaking down organizational and technical challenges and driving them to resolution.
Comfort in ambiguity: you move fast, take ownership, and delight in solving hard problems.
