Midnight Build Club Project — Seeking Technical Lead / Founding Engineer
Knight Shield Digital is in the Midnight Build Club and is looking for a Technical Lead / Founding Engineer to help ship a privacy-first proof platform on Midnight.
Knight Shield protects people when money, proof, and access matter.
Our initial product focus is simple:
Legacy Vault — protects family
Safe Send — protects money
ProofLink — protects deals (privacy-safe proof; you'd own the proof-layer design and choice of approach)
We are not starting from zero. Knight Shield has an incorporated company, a product roadmap, brand direction, website assets, and detailed product specifications. The next step is to simplify the current direction and ship a focused MVP — with a founding engineer who owns the build from the ground up.
We'd sequence it sensibly: Legacy Vault and Safe Send first (clear, buildable now), with ProofLink's privacy-proof layer as the deeper technical challenge to own and architect.
Looking for someone with experience or strong interest in:
Midnight
TypeScript / React / Next.js
Wallet architecture
Identity, privacy, or proof systems (zero-knowledge / verifiable proofs)
Shipping early-stage products
This is an equity-based founding opportunity to start, with paid compensation beginning once funding, grants, customer revenue, or investment is secured.
I'm looking for a builder who wants real ownership and responsibility — not just an advisor.
DM me if interested.
