DEV Jobs in Web3

Parity Technologiesbuilds core infrastructure for blockchains and Web 3.0 technologies. We strive to write the fastest, lightest, and safest core technology in Blockchain and write lots of open-source code.

Parity works in a very flat hierarchy with lots of autonomy and high levels of personal responsibility, and we try to mimic an open-source workflow in much of what we do. Wehave an older article on our blogabout our development practices that you may want to read.

You will be joining theSystem Parachainsteam, which focuses on moving the core Polkadot protocol into parachains. Our users range from other parachain developers using XCM, application developers, and end-users.

This role is for experienced software engineers who can work with low level, mission-critical code and take ownership of a product from understanding users, to developing solutions, to working with auditors, to producing documentation, to testing and releasing into production. It will include working in Substrate FRAME and will require a deep understanding of the XCM virtual machine used for cross-chain programs.

We work on open-source software as a member of a community. Applicants need to have good communication skills and will be expected to engage with the community on GitHub, Stack Exchange, and chat.

• Adhere to software engineering best practices and apply creativity and engineering rigor to your work.

Technical requirements

• Extensive professional experience in systems programming, for example in Rust, C, C++, or Go.
