Celestia Labs is hiring a

Web3 Software Engineer [Go] - Rollkit

Celestia is the first modular blockchain network. By decoupling consensus from execution, Celestia enables anyone to easily deploy their own blockchain, without the overhead of bootstrapping a new consensus network. Blockchains on Celestia are free from constraints, making them scalable, sovereign, and secure.

Celestia Labs is remote first and highly distributed, with English as our primary language for communication. We are looking for self-starters that are excited about working in a fast paced startup environment. We do not require employees to live in specific timezones, but much of the team lives and works in the European and US timezones. As such, employees are expected to be available as needed for team and company events that are scheduled. Generally these are scheduled between 12pm-5pm UTC.

Celestia Labs is looking for a Software Engineer to join the Rollkit team. You will be working on a framework for sovereign rollups and adding support for customizing its different components such as execution environments, sequencer schemes, DA layers, and proof systems. You will also be maintaining documentation and tutorials and guides for how to deploy rollups customizing these components for different applications.
