Remote Rust Jobs in Web3

What we do

RISC Zero is on a mission to fix the internet. We're a diverse group of hackers, futurists, and nerds dedicated to making the internet the place we all deserve. We've already built the world's first zero knowledge virtual machine capable of running arbitrary code as a zero knowledge proof. We're now building an ecosystem on top of it.

We have a transparent pay structure with above market salaries and premium benefits. We've all been part of many startups before, so we care a lot about making sure everyone is treated fairly - when it comes to equity, founders have no meaningful advantage over the rest of the employees. You'll have tremendous ability to take part in changing the world, and we believe that deserves meaningful ownership.

What you'll do

You'll lead the effort to keep RISC Zero's ecosystem tightly integrated with Ethereum. You will build and maintain solidity smart contracts to ensure RISC Zero proofs are understood and efficient on Ethereum. You'll also use Rust to build companion smart contracts on our chain.

Who you are

You’re an expert in smart contracts, but you know solidity like the back of your hand. You know how to build complex multiparty applications and ruthlessly optimize performance. You've written meaningful code using zero knowledge proofs. You have strong opinions and know how to effectively communicate them to a diverse team.

More specifically, you’ve probably done most of the following:

• Built countless smart contracts on Ethereum
• Built software for working with Zero Knowledge Proofs
• Understand statically typed languages like C++ or Rust

That said, we're looking for people who love this problem and are dedicated to making it work. If you don't perfectly match the description but you're still interested - apply anyways. We're always ready to bring on great people, even if we weren't expecting it.
