About us
OpenZeppelin is the security standard onchain finance is built on. Founded in 2015, our mission is to accelerate the world's transition to an open financial system, built on open standards and secured by rigorous research.
Our open-source Contract Libraries have facilitated over $35 trillion in onchain value and are used by 10 of the top 10 tokenized money market funds and 9 of the top 10 stablecoins by market cap.
We combine AI-native security tooling with deep research and a decade of audit expertise to support leading institutions and crypto-native teams shaping the next generation of digital assets like DTCC, Fidelity, Coinbase, Uniswap, Aave, the Ethereum Foundation, and many more across the full secure development lifecycle.
Please note:
Always refer to OpenZeppelin's official job page for the most accurate information about our open roles, as we have seen multiple third party job sites posting inaccurate information.
The Security Services Team
OpenZeppelin's Security Services team is responsible for the security of the world's leading web3 protocols and top financial institutions building onchain. Our researchers partner with client teams across the full lifecycle of a protocol: working on architecture and design before any code is written, co-creating novel mechanisms and primitives with engineering teams, conducting deep audits of pre-launch codebases, and providing continuous coverage as production systems evolve. Our clients range from emerging projects shipping their first contracts to global financial institutions running production onchain systems at scale.
What you'll be doing
Review smart contracts for top decentralized applications, blockchain infrastructure and financial institutions before they launch. Find vulnerabilities, prioritize them, and present findings to the client.
Drive audits independently from start to finish, with AI as your primary collaborator. When useful, partner with another researcher to attack the code together and pressure-test findings.
Partner with client teams during the design phase of new protocols, analyzing architecture, trust assumptions, and operational constraints before any code is written (Design Reviews, Applied Research engagements).
Use AI efficiently throughout the audit process, and build skills, agents, and workflows that compound across the team.
Conduct open-ended research into cutting-edge blockchain technologies, vulnerability classes, and emerging attack vectors, and contribute findings back to OpenZeppelin's internal knowledge base and to the broader ecosystem.
You have
Hands-on and practical experience in one or more of the following: software development, cybersecurity, applied mathematics, distributed systems, cryptography, cryptoeconomics or game theory, or DeFi mechanisms.
Experience designing and developing smart contracts, not only auditing them.
Strong working knowledge of Solidity and the broader Ethereum / EVM ecosystem (common libraries, frameworks, smart contract patterns).
Modern AI tooling is central to how you work, not a novelty. You use it daily to expand audit coverage, reason about complex systems, and produce high-quality outputs faster. You evaluate AI-generated code with a critical eye.
Comfort building and extending your own tooling (skills, agents, prompts, scripts, or full workflows) that the rest of the team can adopt and build on.
An advanced English level and strong communication skills (oral and written).
Nice to have
Experience with non-EVM ecosystems and languages, such as Canton, Move (Sui, Aptos), Golang (Cosmos SDK), Cairo (Starknet), Rust-based blockchains (Solana, Stellar), or ZK circuits and cryptography-heavy systems.
Experience with risk assessment work in the crypto industry (smart contract risk assessment, threat modeling).
Working hand-in-hand with protocol teams on co-creative engagements, helping design, specify, and implement smart contracts alongside the research.
Web2 security expertise (penetration testing, web application security, infrastructure security, or appsec).
Experience with formal verification, invariant testing, or advanced fuzzing tools (Echidna, Foundry, Halmos, Certora).
A track record in audit contests (Code4rena, Sherlock, Cantina) or bug bounty platforms (Immunefi, HackerOne).
Public security research output, such as published findings, blog posts, conference talks, or contributions to open-source security tooling.

Canonical is a leading provider of open source software and operating systems to the global enterprise and technology markets. Our platform, Ubuntu, is very widely used in breakthrough enterprise initiatives such as public cloud, data science, AI, engineering innovation and IoT. Our customers include the world's leading public cloud and silicon providers, and industry leaders in many sectors. The company is a pioneer of global distributed collaboration, with 1100+ colleagues in 75+ countries and very few office based roles. Teams meet two to four times yearly in person, in interesting locations around the world, to align on strategy and execution.
The company is founder led, profitable and growing.
We are hiring a Cloud Support Engineer to build a career with Canonical and support the technical needs of customers leveraging Ubuntu and open source products. If you have an affinity for open source development and a passion for technology, then you will enjoy working with some of the best people in the industry at Canonical.
While our engineers regularly solve deeply interesting, complex technical problems - from triaging cloud environments to root-cause analysis on unseen Linux kernel crashes - this is fundamentally a role rooted in human connection. You will act as a trusted peer and technical guide to external engineering teams, translating intricate open-source challenges into clear, empathetic solutions. We are rapidly expanding and looking for brilliant problem solvers who are just as passionate about building strong, collaborative relationships with customers as they are about the next generation of Canonical solutions.
Location: This is a globally remote role.
The role entails
Empathetic Engagement:
Partner directly with customers across remote sessions, ticketing,, and live conversations to deeply understand and resolve their technical roadblocks.
Collaborative Problem Solving:
Work hand-in-hand with internal engineering teams and regional peer groups to bridge the gap between complex code fixes and real-world customer satisfaction.
True Ownership:
Manage your support cases with a strong sense of personal integrity, ensuring commitments are honored and customer expectations are communicated transparently and predictably.
Ubuntu Lifecycle Guidance:
Develop a rich understanding of the Ubuntu development process, empowering you to give customers clear, human context regarding timelines for engineering fixes.
Knowledge Advocacy:
Author and maintain accessible knowledge base articles, ensuring lessons learned are shared openly to elevate the entire open-source community.
Operational Reliability:
Participate in a regular weekend working rotation to maintain seamless, high-touch continuity of care for our global partners.
What are we looking for in you
Communication Excellence:
Exceptional written and spoken English, with a natural ability to convey technical complexity clearly, warmly, and compellingly.
The Soft-Skill Edge:
A genuine passion for helping people, paired with the emotional intelligence to navigate high-stakes technical situations with composure and empathy.
Academic Dedication:
Exceptional academic track record from both high school and university.
Educational Background:
An undergraduate degree in a technical subject or a compelling narrative about your alternative chosen path.
Driven Mindset:
A proven track record of going above-and-beyond expectations to deliver meaningful, outstanding results for teams or customers.
Linux & Cloud Familiarity:
Practical, hands-on experience supporting Linux systems, with an exposure to three or more of the following:
Virtualization & Cloud:
Using KVM or OpenStack.
Containers:
primarily Docker, LXD/LXC, or Kubernetes.
Storage Ecosystems:
Block, object, and network storage technologies.
System Networking:
Navigating bonding, firewalls, bridging, switching, or MTU tuning.
Analytical Curiosity:
A strong troubleshooting mindset—the ability to look into stack traces or logs, identify OS/application-level bugs, and strategically guide the customer through next steps.
Development Fundamentals:
Basic programming logic in any language to help parse code and collaborate effectively with Canonical Engineering teams.
