About Us:
Blockmedia LLC is a multifaceted technology powerhouse blending artificial intelligence, decentralized infrastructure, and full-stack software engineering. Our mission is to create cutting-edge tools that harness the power of AI and blockchain to drive innovation across industries.
We're on the hunt for a highly skilled AI Developer who also brings experience working with EVM-compatible blockchains. This is a rare hybrid role—ideal for engineers who can move fluidly between intelligent systems and decentralized protocols.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design, build, and optimize machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) models for real-world applications (NLP, CV, predictive analytics, generative AI, etc.)
- Develop AI-driven components for decentralized applications (dApps) and smart contract integrations
- Collaborate with blockchain developers to execute on-chain AI interactions using Solidity or EVM-compatible frameworks
- Architect solutions that enable decentralized AI computation and inference
- Leverage frameworks like TensorFlow, PyTorch, or HuggingFace Transformers
- Design and implement systems that support AI-as-a-service via smart contracts and oracle integration
- Contribute to R&D projects that explore the convergence of LLMs, zero-knowledge proofs, and decentralized inference
- Integrate off-chain compute and ML results with blockchain ecosystems securely and verifiably
- Write documentation, testing pipelines, and deployment strategies for both AI and smart contract modules
Required Qualifications:
- 3+ years of professional experience in machine learning, deep learning, or AI model development
- MUST be located in or around the greater Covington, Louisiana area or willing to relocate quickly
- Proficiency in Python and relevant libraries (TensorFlow, PyTorch, Scikit-learn, Numpy, etc.)
- Working knowledge of Solidity and Ethereum virtual machine (EVM) architecture
- Experience building or integrating with blockchain-based dApps
- Understanding of distributed systems, cryptography, and on-chain/off-chain data handling
- Experience with smart contract interaction tools (Hardhat, Foundry, Ethers.js)
- Familiarity with hosting models via APIs, containerized environments, or edge compute
- Strong grasp of prompt engineering and AI model fine-tuning
Preferred (Bonus) Skills:
- Experience developing or integrating AI for DAO governance, DeFi protocols, or NFT platforms
- Knowledge of zero-knowledge proofs (zk-SNARKs, zk-STARKs)
- Research experience in AI model explainability, ethics, or decentralized inference
- Familiarity with AI compute marketplaces or decentralized GPU networks (e.g., Bittensor, Gensyn, Akash)
- Experience with LLM integration into smart contracts via oracle relays
What We Offer:
- Competitive salary and advancement opportunities
- Full relocation assistance to our Covington, LA headquarters
- Healthcare coverage (medical, dental, vision) after 90 days
- Access to a high-tech, future-forward work environment
- Gym membership and wellness perks
- Opportunity to shape the intersection of AI and Web3 with a dedicated R&D team
How to Apply:
Submit your resume, portfolio or GitHub/Colab examples, and a short cover letter describing your AI + blockchain experience. Highlight a project where you deployed or trained an AI system that interacted with decentralized infrastructure.
