Remote Full-time 5/2 Web3 / DeFi Solidity Co-founder

Founding Engineer

About the project

We're building a next-generation prediction markets platform — a trading terminal with AI analysis and copy trading, built as a smart-contract layer on top of Polymarket.

The product is positioned as an "AI Powerplant" for prediction markets — powerful infrastructure that gives retail traders a professional-grade edge. A trader without an analytics team or 24/7 monitoring gets the same tools as professional market participants: AI event analysis, automated order execution, copy trading, and risk protection.

Who we build for: active and passive traders on Polymarket — from those who want precise control, to those who prefer a "set it and forget it" autonomous bot.

The product already has a technical foundation that needs to be rethought, rewritten, and scaled.

What you'll build
01
Trading Terminal — web interface aggregating Polymarket events in real time, with filtering, AI analysis and position management
02
Smart Contract Layer — Solidity-based layer on top of Polymarket: custom pools, execution logic, hedging
03
AI Engine — LLM integration for probability analysis, news monitoring, and edge detection
04
Bot Infrastructure — autonomous and directed trading bots with user preference learning
05
MCP Integrations — connecting external AI agents via Model Context Protocol
06
Copy Trading Module — mirroring top trader positions with full risk management
