Dragonfly is a crypto‑native Venture Capital and research firm with $4B+ in assets under management and 160+ portfolio companies. Our Talent team connects exceptional candidates with high‑impact technical roles across our portfolio.

This is not a listing for an internal role s posting connects you directly with one or more of our portfolio companies actively hiring Security Engineers.

• 2–5 years of experience in security engineering, operations, or infrastructure security, ideally across both cloud and crypto‑native environments.
• Solid understanding of application, network, and blockchain security principles.
• Hands‑on experience with SIEMs, EDR tools, or threat detection systems.
• Familiarity with GCP, AWS, or other production cloud environments, as well as containerized or distributed systems.
• Understanding of web3 security concepts such as multisig wallets, smart contract risks, validator security, and key management.
• Experience building or operating automated security monitoring and alerting pipelines.
• Strong scripting or automation skills (Python, Type Script, or Go).
• Bonus: experience with security audits, compliance frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF), or open‑source security tools.

Our portfolio companies are hiring across two main focus areas:

• Secure and monitor blockchain infrastructure, nodes, and validators.
• Build and maintain security tooling for on‑chain infrastructure, RPC endpoints, and key management systems.
  • Harden cloud and network environments, implement defense‑in‑depth for production systems, and manage secrets and access control.
  • Respond to infrastructure‑level threats, analyze incidents, and improve detection coverage.

• Partner with smart contract and product teams to secure DeFi, wallet, or protocol codebases.
• Contribute to application‑level threat modeling, auditing, and secure development practices.
• Develop internal tooling for vulnerability scanning, dependency management, and transaction monitoring.
• Work with on‑chain analytics and incident response for protocol or user‑level exploits.
• Even if you don’t match every point but are passionate about security in crypto, we encourage you to apply.

• We’ll confidentially match you with portfolio companies aligned with your background, skill set, and interests.
• If mutual interest exists, we’ll facilitate a warm introduction.
• If there isn’t a match today, we’ll keep you top of mind for future opportunities.

Our portfolio companies are globally distributed, hiring for remote, hybrid, and in‑person roles. They’re building across the full crypto ecosystem—including DeFi, CeFi, infrastructure, L1s and L2s, creator/consumer apps, ZK, and Crypto x AI.
