Key responsibilities
Map TradFi concepts to on-chain designs and own the design and evolution of the Nasdaq Token Design Standard.
Author and maintain the reference implementation library, ensuring backward compatibility, clear versioning, and rigorous documentation.
Lead chain selection strategy and integration architecture, evaluating infrastructure for performance, settlement finality, and regulatory compliance.
Job description
As a RWA Principal Protocol Engineer, you'll serve as the primary technical author of the Nasdaq Token Design Standard - Nasdaq's canonical specification for representing public equity on-chain. This high-impact role sits at the intersection of smart contract engineering, capital markets, institutional trading infrastructure, and standards governance.
We're looking for a principal-level engineer who combines deep protocol engineering expertise with a strong trading systems mindset. You'll bring experience building low-latency, high-throughput platforms and a deep understanding of market structure, liquidity, and institutional trading workflows.
The ideal candidate has built technology at the intersection of digital assets and capital markets, whether at an exchange, trading venue, market infrastructure provider, or blockchain-native firm. Ideally, you've helped build or scale an on-chain trading platform and can apply that experience to shape how regulated assets are represented, governed, and traded on-chain at institutional scale.
