Who we are looking for

We are looking for a senior token engineer with real production experience. You should understand token architecture, smart contract development, wallet infrastructure, secure signing, minting and burning, transaction monitoring, and financial-system reliability.

About Ihsan

Ihsan is building the Digital Islamic Golden Age: a global ecosystem for the Ummah, beginning with Ihsan Connect, an end-to-end encrypted messenger, and Ihsan Pay, a global riba-free payments system.

We are now building our own gold-backed token, the Ihsan Gold Token:

• 1 Ihsan Gold Token = 1 gram of allocated physical gold.
• Each Ihsan Gold Token is backed by real gold held with a bullion and vault partner.
• Users can buy and sell Dinars directly through the Ihsan app.
• Users can send and receive the Ihsan Gold Dinar token on EVM Base.

The role

You will build the technical foundation of the Ihsan Gold Token. (backend, token minting, burning, security and more)

What you will build

• Create and configure the Ihsan Gold Token.
• Secure minting flows: no Token may be minted until gold allocation is confirmed.
• Permissioned-transfer architecture, if we decide transfers should be limited to approved wallets.
• Mint-authority, multisig, signing, and key-management design.
• On-chain transaction flows for user-to-user transfers.
• A reliable connection between the off-chain order and reserve ledger and on-chain mint/burn events.
• Devnet, staging, and mainnet deployment processes.
• Monitoring, indexing, alerting, and operational runbooks for the token programme.

The core invariant

The total Ihsan Gold Dinar supply must never exceed the amount of allocated physical gold held in custody.

What our wider team and partners handle

You will not be expected to build the entire financial product alone.

• A bullion and vault partner will purchase, audit, and store the physical gold.
• Our backend team will build broader app APIs, order flows, internal records, and operational tooling.
• Our mobile team will build the customer experience.
• Legal, licensing, KYC, and compliance are handled separately.

Your responsibility is the secure token infrastructure and its correct integration with the wider Ihsan system.

Required experience

• Production experience building Tokens and secure Smart Contracts.
• Strong knowledge including token accounts, default account states, mint and freeze authorities, wallets, transaction signing, and RPC infrastructure.
• Experience implementing mint, burn, transfer, freeze, and authority-management flows.
• Strong understanding of multisig and secure key-management design.
• Experience with financial ledgers, reconciliation, payments, wallets, stablecoins, or other systems handling customer value.
• Experience building reliable APIs, event-driven workflows, transaction state machines, and idempotent systems.
• Strong testing, monitoring, and incident-response discipline.
• Excellent English communication.

What success looks like

Within the first months, you will have helped us launch a controlled pilot where:

• Ihsan Gold Token is live on EVM base.
• Every Ihsan Gold Token represents 1 gram of confirmed allocated gold.
• Users can buy and sell only through the Ihsan app.
• Approved users can transfer Tokens to other approved users.
• Supply, reserve balances, minting, burning, and wallet approvals are continuously auditable.
• The team has secure procedures for operating and scaling the system.

Why join Ihsan

This is a founding technical role with real ownership. You will build the core infrastructure for a new gold-based digital economy designed for the Ummah—not another speculative token.

You will work directly with the COO and founders and a mission-driven team building ambitious products across messaging, payments, commerce, and Islamic finance.
