Remote Solana Jobs

About the role

As a Software Engineer on the HyperGrid platform, you will specialize in adversarial testing with a keen focus on runtime, compilers, and virtual machines. Your work will directly contribute to the robustness, modularity and reliability of the HyperGrid design, runtime primitives & type integration & base-layer interoperability, ensuring it remains secure against emerging threats and is scalable to accommodate future growth.

Your Responsibilities

• Develop and execute comprehensive adversarial testing strategies targeting the SVM HyperGrid runtime, compilers, and VMs to identify vulnerabilities and security flaws.
• Integrate and maintain native gaming primitives and types, consistent with the ECS framework pattern.
• Design, implement and test performant strategies for interoperability between the Grid rollup runtime and base-layer.
• Collaborate with the team to enhance the security features of the Solana runtime environment, leveraging your insights to guide improvements.
• Simulate sophisticated attack scenarios to assess the resilience of the HyperGrid network, focusing on the runtime's ability to handle malicious inputs and unexpected behaviors.
• Lead the effort in automating security testing processes, creating tools and frameworks that facilitate continuous security assessments.
• Support HyperGrid validator runtime efforts as to ensure reliable execution of validator tasks.

Desired Skills and Experience:

• A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
• At least 3 years of hands-on experience with core infrastructure software, distributed systems, and testing.
• Expertise in programming languages such as Rust, C++, or similar, with a focus on writing secure code and identifying potential vulnerabilities.
• Experience in developing and implementing testing frameworks for runtime environments, compilers, or VMs, with a track record of identifying and mitigating security vulnerabilities.
• Strong analytical skills, with the ability to think like an attacker and anticipate emerging threats.
• Ability to work collaboratively within a team to meet shared objectives and deadlines.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with Postgres, data replication and scaling, blockchain RPCs and indexing, low-level networking, and low-level systems programming is a plus.
• Familiarity with Linux, systems automation tools, and systems architecture.
• Familiarity with blockchain technology, particularly the Solana ecosystem and its unique runtime and VM architecture.
• Direct experience in security testing of blockchain runtime environments or virtual machines.
• Active participation in the security research community, with contributions to open-source projects, publications, or presentations at relevant conferences.

Personal Attributes:

• Curious and eager to learn.
