Job description
From deCircle’s job post, as they wrote it.
M0 is the shared infrastructure where businesses launch their own branded stablecoins and financial institutions power them. Built on a common standard, every stablecoin on M0 is interoperable and liquid from day one - giving businesses programmable control over how money moves in their ecosystems, and giving financial institutions the most advanced issuance stack in the industry.
M0 is seeking a Solana Smart Contract Engineer who will play a fundamental role in shaping the future of our organization. As a Solana Smart Contract Engineer, you will architect and develop Solana programs in Rust and extend M0’s existing issuance infrastructure with a focus on Token-2022. The ideal candidate is self-driven with strong ownership instincts and a bias for action, brings a computer science background or deep-rooted passion for tackling hard technical problems, and has substantial expertise across Web3 applications and infrastructure. You thrive on deadlines, communicate clearly across functions, and do your best work in a fast-paced environment.

Key Responsibilities
* Architect and develop Solana programs in Rust, using Anchor and/or native frameworks.

* Optimize programs for compute unit usage, account size, and transaction packing.
* Participate actively in code and design reviews.
* Prepare codebases for third-party audits, including writing comprehensive tests, invariants, and fuzz harnesses.
Compensation:
* Competitive compensation (base salary with equity/ token grant) commensurate with experience.
Benefits:
* Global team and flexibility: Join a truly global team with the flexibility to work remotely or from one of our hubs in NYC or Berlin.
* Health and wellness: Enjoy comprehensive healthcare insurance coverage as well as a wellbeing allowance and gym membership to support your physical and mental health.

* Strong familiarity with the SPL Token program, Token-2022, and Associated Token Accounts.
* Hands-on experience with the broader Solana DeFi ecosystem.
* Experience with cross-chain messaging and bridging protocols — Wormhole NTT, LayerZero, Hyperlane, or Chainlink CCIP.
