Our mission: Accelerate cryptography to enhance human collaboration.

We achieve this by developing open-source tools, funding innovative research, and educating the ecosystem to make privacy-preserving and scalable technologies accessible to all.

The Role
We are looking for an experienced Senior Rust Developer to join our team and help us take TLSNotary to the next level. TLSNotary is a groundbreaking open-source project, and your mission will be to architect, develop, and optimize it into a production-ready, audited library. This role is critical to ensuring the codebase is secure, efficient, and high-performing, natively and in the browser via WASM.

As part of the TLSNotary project, you’ll work on cutting-edge open-source technologies that have the potential to disrupt major platforms and empower user sovereignty. You’ll also gain exposure to challenging and impactful work within the Rust ecosystem while collaborating with talented engineers on innovative cryptographic solutions. We offer a unique environment that fosters independence, creativity, and collaboration.

Values Alignment

    • We are dedicated to advancing cryptographic research and development to enhance and accelerate human collaboration.
    • We are building public goods, including open-source software, documentation, and learning materials, and we promote them.

    • We are also radically open-minded and keen on building the next generation of infrastructure on decentralized systems.
    • We have an entrepreneurial mindset and want to tackle challenges that no one else has solved yet.

Requirements

    • Experience in developing large-scale Rust projects with the ability to contribute to architectural decision-making
    • Extensive experience with Rust, including a deep understanding of its async ecosystem and a proven track record of building and deploying production-quality Rust projects
    • Exceptional problem-solving skills, with the ability to creatively and efficiently troubleshoot and resolve complex technical challenges
    • A high degree of self-motivation and the ability to work independently, all while maintaining exceptional productivity and strong collaboration skills in a distributed team environment
    • Preference is given to the Western Hemisphere, though Western Europe will also be considered.

Key Responsibilities

    • Enhance and mature the TLSNotary Rust codebase for production readiness.
    • Lead architectural decisions and improve the overall system design.
    • Conduct thorough code reviews, ensuring quality, performance, and maintainability.
    • Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks within the library.
    • Implement and maintain unit and integration tests to ensure reliability.
    • Provide mentorship and technical guidance to peers.

Nice-to-have

    • A publicly accessible track record on GitHub
    • Experience in ZK and MPC
