This is a hands-on engineering and technical-leadership role for someone who moves comfortably between high-throughput Go services and performance- and security-critical Rust components. You will own complex systems from design through production and raise the engineering bar on reliability, performance, security, and operational quality.

Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and optimize high-throughput, low-latency backend services, APIs, and data-processing systems in both Go and Rust for production blockchain infrastructure.
  • Own production Go services and Rust components, including their architecture, interfaces, concurrency models, memory and resource efficiency, testing, observability, deployment, and operation.
  • Architect distributed systems that ingest, process, validate, and serve blockchain data with strong guarantees around consistency, fault tolerance, scalability, and availability.
  • Own technical work end to end, including requirements, architecture, implementation, testing, deployment, observability, incident response, and continuous improvement.
  • Profile and benchmark production systems, identify bottlenecks, and improve throughput, latency, resource efficiency, resilience, and correctness under load.
  • Assess security risks in blockchain and distributed-system components and design or review controls that protect transactions, data, credentials, and system integrity.
  • Debug complex failures across services, databases, streaming systems, networks, and blockchain nodes, then drive durable root-cause fixes.
  • Partner with Product, Infrastructure, Security, and Developer Experience teams to translate customer and protocol requirements into maintainable systems.
  • Lead design and code reviews, mentor engineers, document important decisions, and establish engineering standards that improve quality across teams.
