Job Description
Protocol Engineer
Morpho
• Research and design new lending mechanisms, liquidation strategies, and oracle integrations with the protocol team to ship production-ready improvements that extend Morpho's capabilities. • Write and review production Solidity code for smart contracts securing significant TVL, prioritising correctness, gas efficiency, and simplicity. • Lead medium-to-large protocol initiatives end-to-end, from research through design, implementation, and deployment, potentially coordinating across multiple teams. • Think adversarially about protocol design, identifying attack vectors, edge cases, and failure modes before they reach production. • Prototype new protocol ideas using formal analysis, simulation, or verification to validate mechanism design before committing to full implementation. • Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering and leadership on architecture decisions to keep Morpho's protocol stack coherent and minimal. • Review the team's research and conduct literature reviews to bring external insights and challenge existing designs with fresh perspectives.

- Excellent abstraction capacity: able to quickly understand complex mechanisms and distil them to their essentials.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical ideas concisely and contribute productively to fast-paced research discussions.
- A good theoretician with a practical sense: you can design elegant systems but you also ship fast and make pragmatic trade-offs.
- Comfort operating in fast-changing, ambiguous contexts where the playbook doesn't exist yet.
- Strong ownership and autonomy, you don't wait to be told what to do next.
- Creativity and critical thinking: able to challenge designs and propose novel solutions, not just execute.
