Web3 Staff Engineer (Solana)

About the Role

Take ownership over parts of the Solana stack (Anchor / Pinocchio programs) and parts of the backend exchange infrastructure (Rust).

You’ll work directly on:

• Solana programs that define the foundations of impact markets as a product category

• Backend infrastructure that wraps around the programs to create a robust, reliable and fast exchange product

You’ll work closely with the cofounders [1, 2] with minimal process overhead. The team is mostly remote, with a NY office space available.

You may be a good fit if you:

• Are very comfortable writing production systems in Rust

• Have experience building on Solana (Anchor is a must; Pinocchio a plus)

• Have worked on latency-sensitive, correctness-critical infrastructure or products

• Are comfortable working in an environment with incomplete specifications

• Enjoy thinking about complex problems from scratch

• Are a markets nerd
