Backed by a16z, Framework Ventures, and other leading investors, we’re bringing together top minds in energy and crypto to build a new kind of energy network—one that is transparent, decentralized, and designed for the energy transition. Learn more at www.godaylight.com.
As a Protocol Engineer at Daylight, you’ll lead the development of our core smart contracts and decentralized backend systems that underpin our onchain energy network. Our protocol interacts with energy hardware in the real world and tokenizes the value of flexible energy capacity into crypto-native incentives—bridging digital and physical infrastructure through verifiable smart contracts, oracles, and data integrations.
You should bring deep experience in Solidity and DeFi architectures (especially stablecoins, lending, or reward mechanisms), and be comfortable deploying cross-chain smart contracts using modern interoperability protocols like LayerZero or Wormhole. You should also be confident designing systems that ingest and act on offchain data in a trust-minimized way—whether through Chainlink, Chronicle, or custom oracle networks.
We’re a small team working quickly, so you should be comfortable jumping into backend tasks when needed—whether supporting our Django APIs or refining the interface between our offchain services and smart contract layer.
This is a high-impact, high-ownership role. You'll work directly with the founding team, shaping the cryptoeconomic and technical foundation of Daylight's protocol.
