Rust code engineer

Responsibilities:

 Writing Rust code (and math-focused algorithms) to build a bigger, better,  faster, more optimized SQL Proofing mechanism

 Building strategies, tools, platforms and database integrations to rapidly test  and iterate on various cryptographic techniques / commitment schemes / 

database designs / algorithms for outsourced Proofs of SQL

 Participate in architecture development and research to solve problems  scaling up from “laptop scale” to “cluster scale” 

 Working with Decentralized Oracle Networks (such as Chainlink) to develop  cryptographic commitments for data and consensus-based validations of 

proofs, as well as working with clustered data warehouses for storing and 

processing the commitments

 Codifying best practices for future reuse in the form of accessible, reusable  patterns, templates, and code bases to facilitate meta data capturing and 

management

 Working with engineering leadership to define, prioritize, and ensure smooth  deployments with other operational components

Skills & Qualifications

 Bachelor’s degree in math, computer science, computer engineering, or  related technical field. Masters or PhD is a plus. 

 5+ years software engineering experience (or academic research) around  applied cryptography and preferably experience or familiarity with at least 

one argument scheme, such as bulletproofs, IOPs, KZG-based schemes, etc.

 Experience programming with Rust (or at least C++ with willingness to  quickly learn Rust)

 Rock solid engineering fundamentals; algorithm development/design, high- performance distributed computing

 Rock solid cryptography fundamentals; hashing, elliptic curves/pairings,  field/group theory, etc.

 Nice to have: High-level understanding of distributed computing, database  cluster fundamentals (such as Apache Spark, Snowflake, etc)

 Nice to have: Passionate about Web3, blockchain, decentralization, and a  base understanding of how SNARKs and arguments play into this
