Atomic is a venture fund that founds companies. Founded in 2012, we believe that disruptive innovation is most successfully achieved by pairing innovative ideas with business discipline, and that building those ideas into businesses is not something that can be outsourced. We are engineers and entrepreneurs who build and operate the next generation of great companies.
 
We’re hiring for a full-time Full-Stack Engineer to work with a new stealth company within the Atomic portfolio. 
 
This role can be based in San Francisco, Miami, or remote.

We are searching for a full-stack engineer who will be an early member of our engineering team. An ideal candidate will have a solid grasp of Web2 development in a full-stack Typescript environment, have an interest in growing technically in the Web3 space, comfortable with remote work, effective communicator of deliverables and timelines, and have a passion for making Web3 simple for the next generation of users.

What You’ll Do:

    • Work directly with our Lead Software Engineer on applications.
    • Design beautiful, engaging and performant UIs.
    • Build Back-End layers to support individual applications.
    • Work closely with the engineering, product and design team to plan, architect, and launch features within our applications.
    • Grow technically in the Web3 space through research and product initiatives.
    • Develop and own high-quality code across all levels of the stack that allows us to scale to millions of active users.

What You Have:

    • Degree in Computer Science, a related discipline, or commensurate experience.
    • 2+ years professional software engineering experience.
    • A demonstrable passion for web3 and the future of the decentralized web.
    • Understanding of web3 chains, protocols, and languages (Solidity and Ethereum).
    • Mastery of web development using JavaScript, Typescript, React, Redux, and NodeJS is highly preferred.
    • Experience in agile project management processes.
    • Thrives in a remote work environment and comfortable with digital communication and productivity skills (Slack, Notion, Zoom, etc.)

Bonus:

    • Prior development experience with web3.js or ethers.js.
    • Experience with Solidity and the EVM.
    • Experience building a Chrome Extension.
    • Familiarity with next-generation L2 chains and protocols is a plus.
We are focused on building a diverse and inclusive workforce. If you’re excited about this role, but do not meet 100% of the qualifications listed above, we encourage you to apply. The salary compensation range for this position is between $125,000 to $160,000 per year.

What is the meaning of Layer 2?

Layer 2 in the context of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology refers to a secondary framework or protocol that is built on top of an existing blockchain system (the main chain or Layer 1)

The primary purpose of Layer 2 solutions is to solve the scalability and speed issues that many blockchains face, especially those that have become popular and heavily used, like Ethereum

Here are the key aspects of Layer 2 solutions:

  1. Scalability Enhancement: They help in scaling the main blockchain by handling transactions off the main chain. This reduces the burden on the main chain, allowing for faster and cheaper transactions.
  2. Types of Layer 2 Solutions: There are various forms of Layer 2 solutions, including state channels, sidechains, plasma chains, and rollups. Each has its own mechanism for interacting with the main chain and handling transactions.
  3. State Channels: These involve two parties engaging in numerous transactions outside of the main chain, which are then consolidated into a single transaction. This is especially useful for situations where multiple transactions occur between the same parties.
  4. Sidechains: These are separate blockchains that are connected to the main chain via a two-way peg. They operate independently and can have their own consensus mechanisms but are secured by the main chain.
  5. Plasma Chains: Plasma chains are similar to sidechains but with a more hierarchical structure. They report back to the main chain regularly and are optimized for mass transaction handling.
  6. Rollups: Rollups process and store transaction data on a sidechain but post transaction data to the main chain. They come in two varieties: optimistic rollups and zk-rollups, each with its own method of transaction verification.
  7. Security Considerations: While Layer 2 solutions are generally secure, they can have different security models compared to the main chain. This is an important consideration for users and developers.
  8. Impact on User Experience: For end-users, Layer 2 solutions can greatly improve the experience by reducing transaction fees and increasing transaction speeds.
  9. Adoption and Development: Many blockchain projects are actively developing Layer 2 solutions to enhance their networks. This is an ongoing area of innovation in the blockchain space.
