Berlin, Deutschland molecule.xyz Vollzeit

Molecule is at the heart of the Decentralized Science (DeSci) movement where biotech and blockchain meet to democratize scientific research, earning recognition and support from key figures in the web3 world, including Vitalik Buterin, Balaji, and Juan Benet. We're known for creating VitaDAO, the first and largest biotech DAO with more than $4m in funding deployed, bio.xyz, a vital hub supporting and building biotech DAOs, the IP-NFT, a protocol bringing rights to IP and R&D data on-chain, and IPTs, ERC-20 tokens minted from IP-NFTs to allow token holders to construct and cultivate valuable IP. We’ve also recently launched Catalyst, a platform to launch, discover, and fund the best projects in DeSci.

Over the past 24 months, we have raised $20+ million to build the future of decentralised biotech. Join us and contribute to a future where scientific discovery is driven by web3.

As a **Protocol Architect**, you will lead the development of a cutting-edge protocol layer that translates complex biotech intellectual property (IP) business processes into a decentralized, maintainable, and scalable solution.

- ** Protocol Contribution**: Experience contributing to an ERC standard or similar blockchain protocol.
- ** Cross-Chain Knowledge**: In-depth understanding of competing blockchain standards and their ecosystems, with the ability to evaluate and implement solutions accordingly.
- ** Protocol Landscape**: Deep understanding of the protocol landscape to assess “make or buy” decisions when designing new solutions.
- ** Storage**:Experience with blob storage and F-EVM storage deals, including encrypted data storage mechanisms and decentralized storage solutions.

**Relationship Skills**:

- Calm under pressure, with a proven ability to act proactively and with integrity in fast-moving environments.
- Strong work ethic with excellent written and oral communication skills.
- Team-oriented, persistent, and able to motivate others around a shared vision.

**Other Requirements**:

- Your geo location should be at least within a 5h travel window to/from Berlin and/or CET+/-3 hours.
- You should have the ability to travel regularly and spontaneously for meetings and workshops as we believe that sometimes the best ideas happen when you are in the same room.
