Lagrange Labs Jobs

We are an early-stage San Francisco based Web3 startup that is looking to hire a Senior Blockchain Protocol engineer. The ideal candidate would have familiarity developing and interfacing with production level blockchain clients, such as GEth, Prysm, Heimdall & Bor and Avalanchego. The ideal candidate would have worked with primitives in blockchain and distributed systems, including threshold-signature schemes (FROST & NIDKG) and peer-to-peer networking (libp2p or devp2p).

Our team (https://www.lagrange.dev/) is currently building a novel cryptographic primitive for cross-blockchain communication built through a combination of threshold signature schemes, Verkle tries and zk-SNARKs. In short, our proof system will enable decentralized applications (DApps) to verify cross-chain contract states purely through cryptography, and without the use of messaging protocols, bridges or oracles.

The ideal candidate would have:

1. Experience building core blockchain clients (GEth, Prysm, Heimdall & Bor and Avalanchego).

2. A strong understanding of consensus and networking within decentralized protocols (peer-to-peer gossip, mempools, threshold-signature schemes, etc).

3. Some familiarity with modern cryptographic primitives (zero-knowledge proofs, Merkle trees, multi-party computation, etc).

4. Experience writing and maintaining production level Go modules.

5. Independent motivation and an interest in being part of a team building innovative products

Lagrange Labs focuses on Blockchain / Cryptocurrency. Their company has offices in San Francisco. They have a small team that's between 11-50 employees.
