The role focuses on developing automated tools (fuzzers, static/dynamic analyzers) to detect vulnerabilities in decentralized applications and ensure the reliability of blockchain networks.

Key Responsibilities:

• Research and develop automated vulnerability detection and static/dynamic analysis tools for smart contracts.
• Build testing frameworks, benchmark datasets, and maintain open-source repositories.
• Assist in drafting high-quality research papers for top-tier software engineering and security venues.
• Collaborate closely with graduate students and researchers to achieve project milestones.

Job Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related computing field.
• Solid programming skills (Python, Go, Rust, or C++) and familiarity with smart contracts (Solidity/EVM).
• Knowledge of software quality assurance, static/dynamic analysis, or fuzzing.
• Excellent communication skills, initiative, and ability to work independently.
