Software Engineer - SDK (China)

About Story Story is a purpose-built Layer 1 blockchain designed specifically for intellectual property. With Story, creators can register IP on-chain and set usage terms in seconds—dramatically lowering the barrier of today’s complex and antiquated IP legal systems. For example, instead of requiring lawyers and months of negotiation, you could enforce terms like “you owe me 50% of commercial revenue if you use my IP” through the protocol itself. By making IP programmable, Story transforms intellectual property into a transparent, decentralized, global repository—where AI agents, developers, and humans alike can transact, license, and monetize IP with a simple API call. In February 2025, we launched the Story mainnet.
