Director of Blockchain Engineering (Ops & Strategy)

Trustless Architecture. Trusted by the 0.01%.

The Opus Group is access to the unseen rails for UHNWI wealth teleportation.

Our select clients get access to sub-72-hour legal settlement of 9 figure assets all transacted peer-to-peer, globally, discreetly. If you still think “PDF” is a valid settlement layer, this role isn’t for you.

Hiring the architect behind the rails – and the recruiter of the team who’ll run them.

The Role:

You’ll serve as our most senior blockchain strategist – shaping the system, leading its compliance posture, and building the engineering bedrock that quietly powers the world’s loudest transactions.

Not just code. Not just strategy. You’ll build the protocols, recruit the elite, and harden the system others will never see – but never be able to avoid.

Your Mission:

• Architect and oversee our blockchain infrastructure (Fireblocks, MPC, tokenisation, smart contracts)

• Design systems that feel invisible to clients, but deliver ironclad performance beneath the surface

• Recruit, lead, and grow a curated technical and legal team

• Deploy systems not just for speed – but for sovereignty

• Work side-by-side with the founder to shape the technical OS behind a generational platform shift

Who You Are:

• A Fireblocks-native with an opinion on custody that isn’t theoretical

• Someone who sees “trustless” not as a meme – but a mandate

• You’ve built full-stack blockchain systems, ideally for assets that come with lawyers attached

• You lead with foresight, execute with paranoia, and don’t need to be told how big this gets

• You know the difference between decentralisation and disaster recovery

The Team You’ll Build (and Lead):

• Blockchain Legal & Compliance Advisor

What We Offer:

• Bonuses in a platform built to control the velocity layer of £100M+ asset flows

• High-trust, zero-noise culture

• Direct access to founder and core strategic direction

• And yes, a dev stack that’s cleaner than your GitHub dark mode

Why Now:

Because while others are still tokenising coffee points, we’re engineering the invisible OS for how sovereign wealth moves.

Real estate is just the beachhead. The future is pan-asset. Pan-geographic. Peer-to-peer.

The difference between us and everyone else?

They’re playing in testnet.

..obviously we’re not saying you need to be the reincarnation of Vitalik and Anatoly rolled into one… but if you’ve ever out-gas-optimized a smart contract and explained it in plain English over Negronis, you’re exactly who The Opus Group is after.

Apply Now

If you harden smart contracts before breakfast and design systems no one else can decrypt – let’s talk. The future is tokenised, trusted, and tucked behind velvet-code discretion. Only the chosen commit.
