Who is Ex Populus?
Ex Populus is an ambitious game development studio. Spearheaded by industry veterans from renowned companies such as Pixar, Ubisoft, Activision, Blizzard, and more. With a remarkable team, the company is developing two highly anticipated games, Final Form and LAMOverse. Ex Populus will be one of the first to deploy its games on the Xai Blockchain, setting the stage for other game studios to follow suit.
What Type of Engineer Are You?
Ex Populus is creating a stack of technology that is unmatched in the Web3 space. We are breaking the mold of generic engineering building from established templates and producing run-of-the-mill web3 experiences. At Ex Populus we are building ambitious projects and solving problems that require courage, resourcefulness and commitment to tackle..
We are looking for engineers that want to set a new bar in web3. If you are tired of reiterating the same open-zeppelin templates and being surrounded by centralized, cash-grabbing, nft-centric projects; and you want to build something that enables you to fully express your skills, you’ll find it here.
If you are interested in breaking down walls and taking on the challenge of advancing what is possible on-chain, you’ll find it at ExPopulus.

- Architecting smart contracts in Solidity and Stylus to implement ideas and concepts that have never before been on chain. We are building bespoke systems in which no references, templates or standards are available.
- Designing and implementing games, DAPPs, and infrastructure that power the next era of web3 gaming
- Coordinating with highly talented teams in creating experiences that rival Web2 experiences
What are the Requirements?
- You are experienced as a senior engineer, tech lead, or staff+ software engineer in relevant Blockchain technologies.
- You have 5+ years of industry experience in software engineering.
- You have taken web3 products from ideation to production
- Advanced understanding of EVM environments and solidity.
- You can effectively collaborate with cross-functional teams, including game designers, artists, and other developers, to ensure the seamless integration of blockchain technology into gaming projects.
- You have experience building upgradable contracts via either UUPS, Transparent Proxies, and/or Diamonds
- You must be able to demonstrate that you have worked with non-standard, completely bespoke smart contracts.
How Will I be Compensated?
- Competitive Salary, token, and equity package on par with the web3 giants
- Fully remote (we are a global team)
- Unlimited PTO with a high level of freedom
- Paid travel - team on-sites in different parts of the world, several times a year
- Premium private medical insurance in the US and Canada (Other countries avail)
