Your opportunity:
Make a real difference in the blockchain industry! Build the change you want to see.
The Open Source team is looking for a Senior Software Engineer with expertise in blockchain technology, networking, or distributed, fault-tolerant systems design. We are seeking a capable and rigorous functional programming enthusiast looking for solving challenging problems never solved before.
As we value motivation and autonomy, the ideal candidate is able and willing to be responsible for the complete lifecycle of a project. This entails the definition and prioritisation of tasks, the design and implementation, as well as the testing, documentation and support for users.
Ultimately, we seek to create a flourishing ecosystem of technology solutions that apply not only to Cardano, but to a broader set of problems relevant to many distributed systems.
In this role, you’ll have the following main responsibilities:
Coordinate with other maintainers, users and stakeholders through open and efficient processes (e.g. CIP) to identify improvements or new functionalities that directly impact the Cardano technology stack.
Improve the stability, the quality and the accessibility of the existing Cardano libraries.
Assist contributors and help foster an open source community of developers in the Cardano technology stack.
Create new open source libraries, contribute to existing open source projects or design new projects when necessary.
Review state of the art technology solutions (publications or other libraries / frameworks) to steer evolutions of the project.
Inform about the techniques and innovations you’re bringing to the Cardano technology stack through workshops, blog posts, scientific papers or any medium that would be deemed relevant.
