What is a smart contract auditor?

A Smart Contract Auditor is responsible for reviewing and analyzing smart contracts to identify security vulnerabilities, coding errors, and inefficiencies. They perform manual code reviews, utilize automated tools, and conduct security assessments to ensure the smart contracts function as intended and are resistant to exploits.

What are the most common challenges faced by smart contract auditors in their day-to-day work?

Smart Contract Auditors often encounter the challenge of keeping pace with rapidly evolving blockchain technologies and protocols, which can introduce new security risks. On a daily basis, auditors must scrutinize complex codebases, simulate attack scenarios, and ensure complete coverage of all contract functions, which requires both technical rigor and persistence. Additionally, auditors frequently collaborate with developers to explain vulnerabilities and recommend mitigations, which demands clear and effective communication. Staying up to date with the latest security threats and best practices is essential for success in this dynamic field.

To thrive as a Smart Contract Auditor, you need a strong background in blockchain technology, proficiency in programming languages like Solidity or Vyper, and a solid understanding of cryptography and security protocols. Familiarity with smart contract analysis tools such as MythX, Slither, or Oyente, and certifications like Certified Blockchain Security Expert (CBSE), are highly beneficial. Attention to detail, analytical thinking, and strong communication skills help distinguish top performers in this field. These competencies are crucial to identifying vulnerabilities, ensuring code integrity, and effectively advising development teams on secure smart contract deployment.

Highly motivated, independent engineer who enjoys shipping fast and constantly iterating. As an early engineer at Plume, you will work closely with the CTO to deploy core EVM (Solidity) smart contracts for Plume and support our ecosystem.
Overall Responsibilities
  • Deploy smart contracts for core Plume features like RWA tokenization, KYC attestations, and account abstraction
  • Work with product engineers to integrate smart contract functions into core Plume apps like our end-to-end onboarding platform
  • Design and implement the smart contract, indexing, and offchain architecture to support a robust incentivized testnet campaign
  • Build the next-generation of smart contracts and standards for tokenized capital markets

Within 1 month, you should expect to...
  • Onboard to the team and learn our existing code
  • Learn our roadmap, QA, and shipping cadence, and how we prioritize our core product areas
  • Support companies deploying on Plume with smart contract issues and feature requests
  • Design smart contracts for core Plume features and the incentivized testnet campaign

Within 3 months, you should expect to...
  • Prepare code for auditors and iterate on preliminary audit reports
  • Brainstorm novel dApps to build for Plume mainnet and propose how they should work
  • Mentor and give guidance to junior smart contract engineers
  • Interview prospective engineering hires

Qualifications
  • 3+ years of experience in software engineering at a reputable startup or a large tech company
  • 1+ years of experience in smart contract development, with at least one live deployed project on a mainnet EVM chain
  • You must be based out of Canada or the US
  • Candidates without a Bachelor's degree in a computer science / engineering-related field must have an exceptional work history
  • You must pass three rounds of interviews:
    • Automated coding screen (any language)
    • One-hour phone screen with a member of Plume's engineering team
    • Four-hour paid onsite work trial
