Security Engineer - Jito Labs

Join Jito Labs as a Security Engineer to enhance security across Solana's core infrastructure.

Work remotely with a competitive salary and benefits.

Jito builds the Market Layer of Solana: the execution systems, capital markets, and incentive mechanisms that power real markets on-chain.

Our products process billions in daily transaction value.

The Jito-Solana validator client runs on the vast majority of Solana's active stake.

BAM is redefining how blocks get built.

JitoSOL is the leading liquid staking token on the network.

We are not building at the margins.

We are building core infrastructure that Solana's economy runs on.

Now we're moving up the stack, bringing that same infrastructure advantage to products that traders and users interact with directly.

We're around 25 people, we have product-market fit across multiple product lines and years of runway.

We take hard problems seriously and move fast on them.

Nothing is out of reach.
