Principal Engineer

About Us

We are pioneering the future of blockchain infrastructure with ZK technology. Our approach promises a streamlined efficient blockchain maintaining its key features: censorship resistance permissionless value and reliable decentralization.

Backed with $5M from leading VCs were building our team currently led by founders Sylve (CEO) and Lancelot (CTO). Our goals are ambitious B2B use cases within 4 months series A within the year and going live on mainnet within 24 months.

Programming Skills

The initial team will be 34 devs and the CTO so product ownership will be essential.

For the role of principal engineer we are looking for someone with extensive programming experience though specific blockchain/web3 experience is unnecessary.

• Systems programming: Rust / C / C

The ideal candidate has more than 10 years of programming experience combining:

• Backend programming: Go / Java / C# / Typescript
• DevOps / Infra (either on bare metal or containerised)
• Experience in web3 and frontend are a plus

Other skills

• Willing to work in a venture startup with high risk this is a go big or go home project
• Highly adaptable we will try to remain rather nimble and while the overall goal is well specified the path to get there is subject to change
• Good with feedback communication transparency
• Business & delivery oriented
• English mandatory French appreciated

Key responsibilities

The core technical objective is twofold: shipping B2B usecases in the coming months then expanding that a permissionless mainnet blockchain with 24 months. You can expect:

• At first working on a Cosmos SDK app written in Go augmenting it with verifiers for various ZK proving schemes (those mostly written in rust).
• Exporting the implications of our new architecture by writing our own apps
• Bridging the state of the chain to/from other networks such as Ethereum
• Working on support for various wallets
• Investigate the need to switch away from the Cosmos SDK and if this path is taken participate in writing a new blockchain stack. If not modify the cosmos SDK accordingly.
