Our Vision: Machines Will Be Our Future Workforce

At MachineFi Lab, we’re not just envisioning the future; we’re actively building it—today. We power the new reward economy by fostering a fairer, safer, and more rewarding Internet of Things (IoT). Central to our mission is the concept of Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN), a paradigm shift leveraging blockchain technology for capital formation and human coordination on a global scale. By enabling contributions to real-world infrastructure — spanning wireless, mobility, compute, energy, storage, and beyond — we empower individuals to invest in and shape the foundation of our future society. Leveraging our cutting-edge blockchain infrastructure, a robust suite of DePIN Modules, and expertise in crafting blockchain-integrated devices, MachineFi stands at the forefront of the DePIN revolution.

Are you a maverick? A digital renegade? Are you someone who challenges the status quo, believing, against all odds, that you can change the world? If so, MachineFi is for you. Join us, and be part of the movement shaping the infrastructure of tomorrow.

We are seeking research engineers with solid research background and strong development skills in IoT security to join our research team. As a research engineer in IoT security, you will lead various decentralized IoT research projects, build IoT proof of concepts (PoCs) and/or full-fledged products, and collaborate with the product team for building innovative MachineFi solutions. You will have the opportunity and responsibility to build MachineFi Lab’s long-term vision of powering billions of devices and decentralized applications across the physical and digital world.

WHAT YOU’LL ACHIEVE:

Conduct research in multiple IoT security areas, including, but not limited to, hardware root-of-trust (e.g., TPM, secure element, etc. ), secure operating system, decentralized security architecture, Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), secure boot, over-the-air update
Write technical reports and/or research articles when possible and present research findings at industry or academic events Build IoT prototypes and/or products by collaborating with business partners and engineers
Collaborate with the product team integrating IoT hardware into production-ready blockchain&IoT solutions
Engage and participate in activities in industry consortiums and standardization bodies Collaborate with researchers and engineers both within and outside of MachineFi Lab to work towards building cutting-edge blockchain&IoT solutions

WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL:

A bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer engineering or a related field, or relevant experience in research and development
Experience working on various open-source hardware (e.g., Raspberry Pi, Arduino, etc.) and security chips (e.g., TPM, secure element, etc.)
Proficient in at least one or more programming languages (e.g., C/C++, Rust)
Strong communication, writing and presentation skills and outstanding ability to influence and develop relationships with key business partners
Fast learner of decentralized IoT architecture and blockchain technologies

About MachineFi and Our Culture:

MachineFi Lab, IoTeX’s core developer, is a leading tech provider for Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN), a Web3 category predicted to become a multi-trillion-dollar economy powered by billions of smart devices and trillions of sensors. Its team of over 60 research scientists and engineers released W3bstream, the world’s first decentralized off-chain compute framework for smart devices and real-world data. It aims to provide advanced middleware and tools for Web2 businesses connecting to Web3 token incentives with real-world activity confirmed by user-owned smart devices, unlocking new business opportunities through its Proof-of-Anything technology, which can be used with several data sets, such as in location, activity, and humanity.

MachineFi Lab’s easy-to-use tools for the creation of X-and-earn scenarios, such as play-and-earn, walk-and-earn, or sleep-and-earn—community-owned machine networks, such as smart cities, public utilities, and other physical infrastructure. Backed by nearly 20 prominent VCs, including Samsung Next, Jump Crypto, Draper Dragon, Xoogler Ventures, IOSG, Wemade, and Escape Velocity, MachineFi Lab is building advanced technology to bring the metaverse into the real world, and vice versa.
