Internship at MEV Labs – Become an MEV Hunter
What You’ll Do
— Build, test, and iterate on your own MEV bot or strategy — full ownership from day one.
— Work directly with an experienced MEV mentor who will guide you through the nuances of searching, simulating, and extracting value from Ethereum and L2s.
— Ship real code that runs in production, not toy projects.
Requirements
— Formal background in Computer Science (BSc, MSc, or PhD) from an accredited university
— Strong fundamentals in algorithms, data structures, and distributed systems.
Bonus Points For
— Deep technical understanding of Ethereum.
— Experience building and testing smart contracts in Solidity/Foundry.
— Prior research experience, especially in open-ended or ambiguous contexts where there’s no clear roadmap. You enjoy solving hard problems where others get stuck.
— Familiarity with DeFi protocols, auctions, and on-chain markets.
What We Offer
— Competitive crypto-denominated salary during the internship.
— Hands-on experience with MEV extraction in real markets (not just paper simulations).
— The chance to own equity in a profitable strategy if your work ships and succeeds.
— A front-row seat to the cutting edge of crypto trading — where milliseconds and gas units decide winners and losers.
