Web3 Network Services Engineer

Edge & Node is a creative software development company working to build a vibrant, decentralized future. Founded by the initial team behind The Graph, Edge & Node is dedicated to the advancement of web3, a decentralized and fair internet where public data is available to all—an internet that enables its users to increase agency over their creations and their lives.

Edge & Node’s initial product is The Graph, an indexing protocol for querying networks like Ethereum and IPFS, which ensures open data is always available and easy to access. The Graph is used by thousands of protocols and dapps including Uniswap, Livepeer, Aave, Decentraland, and more. Edge & Node also launched Everest, a decentralized registry with the mission to catalyze the shift to web3, facilitating community-driven curation of projects providing ongoing utility to the crypto space.

The Research & Protocol group at Edge & Node drives fundamental improvements to The Graph protocol by designing new capabilities and solving novel research challenges. We collaborate with developers and the product team to turn our ideas into productized solutions.

We are looking for a Network Services Engineer to work across the research & engineering teams on core components of The Graph protocol. The primary focus of this role is to improve the performance, robustness, trust-minimization, and user experience of systems driving The Graph Network.
