Job of the Day
Senior Bitcoin Developer
Location: Lisbon / Remote
Type: Full-Time
Department: Engineering / Technology
We're Second—the new kids on the Bitcoin block. For the past few months, we've been quietly building an implementation of the Ark protocol. Now, we're ready to expand the team.
Ark is a new Bitcoin layer two that enables fast, low-cost payments at scale while ensuring users maintain full control of their funds (through true unilateral exit). With one simple integration, application developers can quickly deliver self-custodial Ark AND Lightning payments to their users.
We have a working prototype and are working hard to make it production-ready. We'd love for you to join us in taking this new technology from zero to one!
Our company is fully remote, and our engineering team is based in Europe.
What's the job?
We are looking for a Senior Developer to join our core engineering team. You will:
Contribute to the design of the Ark protocol;
Build Ark-based applications that deliver world-class Bitcoin payment experiences at scale;
Add new features, solve complex technical problems, and squash bugs;
Ensure our codebase meets the highest standards of quality and security, including reviewing code from the team and upstream dependencies and
Work in a non-corporate agile workflow.
Who are you?
You are an experienced software developer who enjoys diving deep into technical challenges. We're looking for someone who:
has built production software in a field where failure isn't an option;
deeply understands the Bitcoin protocol;
is familiar with the Rust programming language; and
thrives in a remote, non-corporate, agile workflow.
Don't worry if you don't check all of the boxes above. Passion for Bitcoin and an ability to learn give you the edge.
What do we offer?
Compensation: You will receive a market-competitive salary plus equity. You can choose to receive a fraction of your salary in Bitcoin.
Remote work and office expenses: Work from the comfort of your home. We've got you covered if you need some investment to set up your office.
Company off-site: Working remotely is great and flexible, but knowing your colleagues personally is important. We'll bring the team together to whiteboard, solve hard problems, and make jokes at least once a year.
Paid holidays: Unlimited paid time off.
We believe in FOSS: The majority of the code you write will be open-source. The wording in your contract will also ensure you can continue contributing to other open-source projects with ease (we do, too).
If you are interested, apply via the form or email us at hello(at) second.tech. We'd love to hear from you!

Another Satoshi Nakamoto Unmasking Attempt Looms, But Don't Expect Any Real Proof
As Bitcoin becomes a $1.2 trillion asset class, attempts to unmask its creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, persist, with suspects like Adam Back, Hal Finney, and Nick Szabo frequently resurfacing. However, these efforts consistently lack real proof.
Bitcoin's decentralized nature thrives without being tied to a single personality, revealing Satoshi could undermine its independence and mystique.
While the stakes of identifying Satoshi grow as Bitcoin's value rises, true evidence still needs to be discovered. Next week's anticipated "big reveal" will likely disappoint, as only Satoshi can definitively prove his identity.

Exploring the Future
This year's conference theme invites participants to delve into Bitcoin's future. Over the past 15 years, Bitcoin has evolved from an obscure digital experiment to a central player on the global financial stage.
This event, which will include plenty of educational sessions and opportunities for networking, focuses on shaping the future of the Bitcoin ecosystem.
With an expected attendance of 5,000, Bitcoin Amsterdam 2024 is one of Europe's most significant Bitcoin events this year. Last year's conference featured notable speakers such as Edward Snowden and Eva Vlaardingerbroek.
This year promises other influential voices discussing how freedom, finance, and technology converge in Bitcoin. Among the first speakers announced are Jack Mallers, CEO of Strike, and Stella Assange. The lineup is expanding daily, and more speakers will be unveiled in the coming weeks.
Secure your spot: Tickets and updates.
