Responsibilities
• Extend the scope and depth of our automated program verification tools and brainstorm, design, and implement new tools. • Adapt and improve algorithms for symbolic software model checking. Examples include bounded model checking (BMC), counterexample-guided abstraction refinement (CEGAR), and property directed reachability (IC3/PDR). • Build and extend translators from different input languages into intermediate representations, optimizing the generated models for automated analysis. • Identify new classes of security properties of smart contracts and formalize properties for use in our automated verification tools. • Closely collaborate with other software engineers in developing tools and set technical direction for solving problems in consultation with your team and management. • Work on all aspects of delivering working software that meets customer needs, including analysis, design, automated testing, operations, CI/CD, measuring results, incorporating customer feedback, and support.
Benefits
• Blockchain technology is enabling a rapidly-growing era of innovation for the digital world. It is crucial that blockchain code such as protocols and smart contracts are provably secure and correct. Once deployed, they are public and cannot be changed. Vulnerabilities and bugs in such programs regularly put millions of dollars at stake. This is where CertiK comes in. We are the leading blockchain security company. Our goal is to secure the cyber world by applying cutting edge techniques from academia to secure blockchain code. Come and join this ambitious mission as a research software engineer to work on automated analyses for provably secure and correct blockchain applications! • Target annual base salary for this role performed in the US is $115,000 - $230,000. • The exact compensation at which this job is filled will be determined by the skills and experience of qualified candidates. • CertiK accepts applications for this position on an ongoing basis. • CertiK is proud to offer medical, vision, and dental insurance, 401(k) plan with company matching, life and accidental death and dismemberment insurance, HSA (with high deductible plan), FSA, and other benefits to all full-time employees, along with flexible paid time off and holidays.
