Veda builds vault infrastructure for DeFi at scale. We manage $2B+ in total value locked across 15+ blockchain networks, powering yield strategies for partners including Kraken, Etherfi, and Plasma. Our protocol turns complex multi-chain DeFi positions into simple vault interfaces that institutional and retail users can actually trust. We seek individuals with high agency to join us in defining the next phase of DeFi growth and adoption. The ideal candidate takes ownership, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and adapts swiftly to evolving demands. The Role As an SVM Engineer, you will design, implement, and optimize smart contracts and DeFi protocols on the Solana Virtual Machine. With a special focus on vault architecture and security, you'll be responsible for creating robust financial applications that maintain the highest standards of security while delivering exceptional performance. Responsibilities - Design and develop smart contracts and DeFi protocols on the Solana Virtual Machine - Build and optimize secure vault systems for asset management and yield strategies - Collaborate with security teams to ensure protocols are protected against exploits - Integrate with existing DeFi protocols and establish cross-protocol compatibility - Optimize code for Solana's parallel execution environment - Conduct thorough testing and debugging of smart contracts - Research and implement innovative solutions to improve scalability and reduce transaction costs - Stay current with the latest developments in the Solana ecosystem and DeFi space - Contribute to technical documentation and knowledge sharing You have - Experience building, deploying, and maintaining SVM smart contracts in production - Strong programming experience in Rust - Deep understanding of Solana and low-level SVM concepts - Thorough understanding of the Solana Virtual Machine architecture and its constraints - Experience building DeFi protocols (lending, trading, yield farming, etc.) - Knowledge of cryptographic principles and blockchain security best practices - Familiarity with Solana Program Library (SPL) and ecosystem tools - Understanding of vault architectures in DeFi contexts - Experience with on-chain security patterns and common vulnerabilities - Solid grasp of financial concepts as they apply to decentralized finance - Problem-solving attitude and ability to work in a fast-paced environment Even better if you have - Track record of creating audited and battle-tested smart contracts - Strong systems engineering fundamentals. You’ve built event-driven architectures, data pipelines, caching layers, and API services that handle high throughput. - You’ve seen production at scale. You’ve lived through systems that scaled past their original design. You know what breaks first, what compromises are temporary, and what shortcuts become permanent regret. - Previous experience building vault protocols on Solana or other blockchains - Contributions to open-source Solana projects - Experience with Anchor framework for Solana development - Knowledge of other blockchain platforms (Ethereum, Near, etc.) for cross-chain compatibility - Familiarity with front-end frameworks for dApp development (React, etc.) We’re a 35-person team that’s raised $18M at Series A. The infrastructure works — it’s running in production handling billions in TVL — but it was built for the company we were, not the company we’re becoming. We’re transitioning from founder-dependent operations to scalable engineering practices. You’ll be a key part of making that real. Compensation Competitive base salary plus equity. We’re a Series A company heading toward Series B — early enough that your equity is meaningful, late enough that the business is real. Your actual level and base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education, and experience. If you are in the United States, you may also receive access to comprehensive medical, dental, and life insurance in the US Originally posted on Himalayas
