Web3 Software Engineer, Ripple X (Summer 2022 Intern)

Hyper Accelerating the Internet of Value

Location: Bay Area

RippleX supports one of the world’s fastest, most sustainable, and consistently reliable blockchains - the XRP Ledger. (Fun fact: it’s been carbon neutral for over two years now!)

We’re focused on helping others to solve their own problems using the XRPL. For example:

• We’ve written intuitive libraries for developers to easily send money through their apps.
• We’ve contributed specs to the open source ledger to handle new use cases like NFTs.
• We’re creating a toolkit for people to spin up their own “sidechain” networks to experiment with.
• We're enabling blockchain infrastructure that is supported by RippleX and owned by everyone.

All in all, we’re about making it easier to tap into the power of instant decentralized payments by providing the infrastructure, tools, programs, and support for creation on the XRPL.

We are seeking software engineering (computer science) interns who match our beliefs in the power of this technology. You also see the huge potential of this technology and have the entrepreneurial spirit and technical excellence to realize the vision we have. There is a lot of work to get there but we are committed to building out the best team to achieve this.

What you’ll be working on:

• Build developer-friendly libraries to make it easy to use and understand the XRP Ledger (using languages like Python and JavaScript)
• Contribute to open source projects using your own GitHub account
• Quickly learn and utilize modern development tools and libraries including TypeScript, Vue.js, Tailwind CSS, and more
• Make it easy to understand the ledger and its limits by aggregating on-chain data

What we’re looking for:

• You are currently in a Bachelors or Masters program in Computer Science, Engineering or similar
• You’ve worked on open source projects, developer platforms, and/or API-driven software
• You’re experienced working with any of TypeScript/JavaScript, Java, Python, or C++
• You’re excited to learn about blockchains, the technical details, and how to make the technology better
• You look to solve problems with simple solutions, rather than technically perfect ones

WHAT WE OFFER:

• The chance to work in a fast-paced start-up environment with experienced industry leaders
• A learning environment where you can dive deep into the latest technologies and make an impact
• Modern office in San Francisco’s Financial District
• Fully-stocked kitchen with organic snacks, beverages, and coffee drinks
