• Troubleshoot and debug applications.
• Participate in code reviews.
• Proactively propose new approaches or improvements to the project.

Requirements:

• Interest in your profession outside of work
• 3+ years prior professional software development experience (ideally worked in a startup too).
• Strong knowledge of Rust.
• Strong understanding of distributed systems principles and applications.
• Familiarity with Blockchain protocols like Libp2p/Ipfs/Filecoin/Other storage protocols .
• Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Bonus points

You'll be at a strong advantage for this role if:

• You live near Brooklyn and are willing to come to the office and work with the team occasionally, or regularly.
• You are familiar with ZK primitives or writing circuits
• You are familiar with consensus algorithms in decentralized settings.
• You have experience building with decentralized building blocks such as DHTs, consensus protocols, blockchain, p2p networking, etc.
• You have experience designing and building distributed and/or p2p software systems and applications.
• You have taken on a critical role in an open source project.

Personal Qualities:

• Exhibit our core cultural values: clear communication, positive energy, continuous learning, and efficient execution.
• Collaborative energy and ability to work well in teams.
• Strong work ethic and a passion for Web3
• Passion to work on and share knowledge of new technologies
