Jobs at The Risk Protocol

Role Description: Fractional CTO The core of the Risk Protocol, consisting of a highly sophisticated risk engine, is largely in place. The next phase involves the buildout of the tech interface, based on a very clear vision of the primary building blocks of the platform. Some of those building blocks include compliance tools (AML, KYC etc.), funding gateways, custody, tokenization, a marketplace etc. We intend on adopting a “buy and build" modular approach to development, which means that we will not recreate the wheel where it is not necessary. Where robust off-the-shelf market solutions that meet our technical requirements exist already, we shall buy/adopt them. Other areas that require a more customized solution shall be internally developed. This role will be charged with overseeing and initiating the tech buildout in close partnership with the CEO. Main responsibilities will include: 1. Creating the overall tech vision and architecting the tech stack 2. Screening and selecting key tech team members 3. Screening and selecting vendors 4. Selecting technologies (protocols/token standards…) 5. Developing technology roadmap and timeline 6. Implementing rigorous development processes Depending upon success in building out the infrastructure and the tech team, this role has the potential to evolve into a full-time position. This is a remote role. Skills/Qualifications • Substantial prior CTO experience • Demonstrated experience leading teams and successfully completing complex builds • The ideal candidate will be a crypto native with deep understanding of the crypto ecosystem • Experience with developing smart contracts and token issuance/redemption • Good knowledge of trading systems and exchange infrastructure (tradfi or crypto)
