This is a founding role — you’ll work side-by-side with the Founder to build the company’s MVP, attract funding, and establish the long-term technical vision of both YieldLoop and LOOP LAB, our education and innovation hub.

Core ResponsibilitiesTechnical Leadership
  • Architect and lead development of the YieldLoop MVP and supporting systems (smart contracts, dashboards, API integrations, etc.).
  • Build the verified savings engine — a transparent, automated system that compounds only confirmed profits.
  • Select and manage technology stack (Base / ETH network, smart contracts, front-end, databases, APIs).
  • Oversee system architecture, scalability, uptime, and cybersecurity.
  • Manage or recruit developers, auditors, and technical partners.
  • Maintain clean, auditable, and secure code standards.
Strategic & Co-Founding Responsibilities

  • Represent the technical side in investor meetings, accelerator applications, and grant processes.
  • Help define and refine business models, tokenomics, and technical IP for patent filings.
  • Participate in governance, long-term strategy, and hiring key staff as the company scales.
  • Contribute to fundraising, pitch materials, and partnerships from a technical perspective.
  • Serve as a public-facing voice for YieldLoop’s innovation and technology roadmap.
LOOP LAB Integration
  • Guide development of educational programs in fintech, automation, renewable energy, and full-stack technology.
  • Mentor interns, students, and local participants involved in LOOP LAB projects.
  • Support collaboration between LOOP LAB and external industry or academic partners.
Qualifications
  • Strong experience in blockchain or full-stack software engineering (Solidity, Python, React, Node, etc.).
  • Experience with DeFi, fintech infrastructure, or smart-contract auditing preferred.
  • Ability to work in a lean, early-stage startup environment with high autonomy and shared responsibility.
  • Visionary yet practical — capable of building and scaling production-ready systems.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset and readiness to commit to a co-founder role with equity ownership.
Compensation
  • Initial compensation via founder equity, transitioning to salary post-funding.
  • Includes shared decision-making authority and governance participation.
