You will develop core infrastructure components—including consensus mechanisms, low-level data storage, networking layers, and synchronization logic—with a focus on correctness, performance, and security.

What You’ll Do

  • Design and maintain critical system-level components in Rust, ensuring they are efficient, safe, and resilient.
  • Collaborate with infrastructure teams to improve observability, monitoring, and incident response workflows.
  • Participate in on-call support to address production issues and maintain system reliability.
  • Bridge protocol and product development by exposing essential functionality through intuitive, well-documented interfaces and APIs.

What We’re Looking For

  • At least five years of professional software engineering experience, with a minimum of two to three years using Rust in production environments.
  • Proven understanding of blockchain fundamentals and experience contributing to blockchain-based systems.
  • Background in low-level programming or distributed systems design, with an emphasis on correctness and robustness.

Our Technology

We build on Rust-based tooling to advance zero-knowledge cryptography, blockchain protocols, and decentralized infrastructure. Our stack includes consensus algorithms, memory-mapped databases, networking protocols, and synchronization systems—all designed with privacy and scalability in mind.

Our Culture

We believe privacy is a foundational right in digital systems. Our mission is to empower developers with tools that prioritize user control, security, and long-term sustainability. We foster a collaborative environment where innovation thrives through open dialogue, thoughtful design, and a shared commitment to building the future of decentralized technology.
