Eigen Labs is an engineering and research organization focused on contributing to protocols that enhance open innovation on Ethereum. The company fosters a culture of intellectual curiosity, collaborative debate, and ownership, underpinned by values of integrity and respect. Founded by Sreeram Kannan, a former University of Washington professor and Head of the UW Blockchain Lab, Eigen Labs aims to build coordination engines that support continuous innovation. Since its inception, the team, initially comprising members from the UW Blockchain Lab, has significantly expanded.

📋 Description

• Build agent runtimes and orchestration systems (planning, tool use, memory, coordination) • Make agents reliable (retries, failure handling, state management) • Make agents observable (tracing, debugging, evaluation) • Make agents cheap (cost-aware execution, performance optimization) • Make agents useful in production (not demos - real systems people depend on) • Integrate LLMs, APIs, and external data into coherent, working systems • Define how developers build, debug, and extend agent behavior

🎯 Requirements

• You’ve shipped real systems that people depend on • You’ve taken ambiguous problems and turned them into working products • You’ve built or deeply explored agent systems, LLM pipelines, or automation beyond simple demos • You understand system behavior in production - failure modes, tradeoffs, reliability • You move fast and iterate - you don’t wait for perfect specs • Strong backend / systems experience (distributed systems, APIs, infrastructure) • Proficiency in at least one core language (Python, Go, TypeScript, Rust, etc.) • Experience with reliability patterns (state, retries, observability) • Comfort working across the stack when needed

🏖️ Benefits

• Competitive salary and non-cash compensation (tokens and equity) • World class benefits package (medical/dental/vision) • Remote work set up stipend • Flexible hours and a supportive remote environment • Flexible time off • 401(k) retirement plan + company match • Monthly wellness benefit • Yearly off-sites • Paid parental leave
