About the team

The Hardhat team builds our established and market-leading products. These are user-facing infrastructure that developers use to write, test, compile, and deploy their Solidity contracts for Ethereum. Our users depend on our products for their end-to-end experience of building software. We deliver these features at scale, with users ranging from beginners learning the ropes to teams managing production systems with billions in user on-chain capital at stake. We aim to provide the Ethereum ecosystem with a professional developer tool that they can rely on to rigorously build, test, and maintain Ethereum software.

This is a fully-remote role, and we’re open to candidates applying within UTC+2 to UTC-4 timezones.
