Description

• Staff engineers at Thesis have a passion for the inner-workings of technology inside and outside of their role on the team. This role focuses on complex problem solving, security, supportability, and a pragmatic approach to implementation. You will be expected to quickly understand the strengths and weaknesses of existing code you are working on and carefully and pragmatically choose what needs changing now and what should be changed over time to hit timelines and successfully deliver secure, stable, working software. We want engineers who are comfortable communicating and teaching more junior engineers, and who can clearly articulate tradeoffs between decisions. • Stay connected to best practices in the engineering and web3 communities. • Always prioritize security and communicate your approach to keeping the system secure. • Understand and respect Chesterton’s Fence, approaching problems with the intent to perturb existing systems as little as possible until they are well understood. • Navigate ambiguity by creating structure when it is lacking. • Document your thinking so others can understand your approach. • Work to identify issues before they hit production through a rigorous testing practice. • Identify and put users first across the full spectrum of your work—from command-line parameters to APIs. • Evangelize simplicity, supportability, and ease of use.

Requirements

• At least 3 years experience in a staff role or at least 5 years successful experience as a full stack engineer in a high performance environment. • Experience executing against all requirements listed under 'Responsibilities'. • Strong knowledge of Go, including familiarity with standard Go tooling and with effective Go guidelines. • Existing understanding of and experience with Solidity-Go bindings and calling Solidity contracts from Go. • Ideally, existing technical familiarity with Evmos or a related ecosystem. • Ideally, existing technical familiarity with Bitcoin.

Benefits

• Competitive salary • Full health benefits • Opportunity for equity • Other perks
