Founded 2019

We partner with disruptive organizations to help identify and attract talent. A boutique recruitment agency that focuses on blockchain and web3. We enjoy networking with Web3 and decentralization enthusiasts and help them find their place in the decentralized world.

📋 Description

• Design, implement, and maintain core components of the GraphTally protocol in Rust. • Collaborate with researchers and protocol engineers to refine and evolve the architecture. • Optimize signature verification, message processing, and batching for high-throughput performance. • Implement secure state transition logic, trust-minimized payment flows, and smart contract interactions. • Work closely with smart contract engineers to ensure seamless on-chain integration (mainly on L2s like Arbitrum). • Write clean, testable, and efficient code with a focus on security and correctness. • Contribute to technical documentation, specifications, and developer tooling to support GraphTally adoption.

🎯 Requirements

• 3+ years of professional experience writing high-performance, production-quality async code in Rust. • Experience in designing and implementing remote APIs (REST, JSON-RPC, gRPC). • Experience in responsive microservices design and development. • Experience with databases (Postgres, Redis). • Experience with Docker. • Deep understanding of cryptographic primitives, especially ECDSA and digital signature schemes. • Proficient with Rust’s async/await model, leveraging futures, tokio, or async-std. • Understanding of asynchronous state machines for managing complex protocol flows. • Familiarity with zero-knowledge proofs, state/payment channels, or escrow mechanisms is a plus. • Strong grasp of trust-minimized systems, distributed protocols, or payment rails in a web3 context. • Experience working with Ethereum L2s (like Arbitrum, Optimism) and integrating with smart contracts. • Proficiency with testing, benchmarking, and debugging asynchronous Rust applications in the context of web3, using tools like anvil. • Clear communication, curiosity, and a strong sense of ownership.

🏖️ Benefits

• Fully remote, async-friendly team with competitive compensation and token upside.
