Based at the intersection of technology and finance, Xpay.Sh is redefining what's possible in payment solutions.

About XPay.Sh

XPay.Sh is building plug-and-play Agentic Payments—secure, modular, and ultra-fast money movement for AI agents and apps—powered by our X402 Protocol. We sit at the intersection of Web3, DeFi, and real-world payments, enabling compliant, programmable, and cross-rail settlement for human-to-AI and AI-to-AI transactions.

As a Founding Engineer, you’ll shape the core protocol, architecture, and engineering culture from day one—and ship mission-critical primitives that power autonomous payments at scale.

Role Summary

You’ll lead the hands-on build of our Web3 stack : smart contracts, DeFi primitives, off-chain services, chain integrations / L2s, and developer SDKs. You’ll partner with product to turn customer needs into shippable specs, own security and reliability, and help hire the early engineering team.

What You’ll Do

• Design & ship smart contracts (Solidity / Rust) for payment orchestration : vaults, escrows, streaming, staking, fee routing, and settlement logic across EVM / L2s.
• Build reliable backends & SDKs that bridge on-chain logic with off-chain services (indexers, event pipelines, signing services, risk / compliance hooks).
• Own security : test suites, invariants, upgradeability patterns, audit readiness, incident runbooks, and bug-bounty posture.
• Optimize performance & cost : chain / L2 selection, gas efficiency, batching, meta-tx / AA, and cross-chain messaging where needed.
• Integrate with DeFi & payment rails : stablecoins, fiat on / off-ramps, custody / RPC providers, oracles, bridges.
• Define engineering standards : CI / CD, observability, code review, release cadence;

mentor early hires and contractors.
