The Role

This is mainly a Bitcoin job for someone passionate about decentralization and changing the world.

Help us create something new. You need to understand many domains: cryptography, in-depth CS concepts, game theory & user behavior, economics, networking, et al.

You should:
(1) have an in-depth math & protocol level knowledge of Bitcoin, Bitcoin Script, Lightning, and ideally Bitcoin projects such as nostr, RSK, Stacks, RGB, bitvm and (2) also undestand the world of EVM, but if you're an intensely knowledgable maximalist, that's okay.
