About the Ethereum Foundation 
The Ethereum Foundation (EF) is a global non-profit organization dedicated to supporting Ethereum and related technologies. Our mission is to do what is best for Ethereum’s long-term success. Our role is to allocate resources to critical projects, to be a valued voice within the Ethereum ecosystem, and to advocate for Ethereum to the outside world. 

About the PSE Team 
As part of the EF, the Privacy and Scaling Exploration (PSE) team is a research group exploring practical applications for Zero-Knowledge Proofs and privacy and scaling solutions in general. We do this through pure research projects, by building proofs of concept and by facilitating the integration of technological primitives into decentralized applications. The PSE team is part of the EF but operates independently in many ways. 

The Role
The Scrum Master is responsible for promoting and supporting Scrum as defined in the Scrum Guide. Scrum Masters do this by helping everyone understand Scrum theory, practices, rules, and values. The Scrum Master is a servant-leader for the Scrum Team, helping those outside the Scrum Team understand which of their interactions with the Scrum Team are helpful and which aren’t. The Scrum Master helps everyone change these interactions to maximize the value created by the Scrum Team.

What you will be doing

    • Helping our teams to implement appropriate processes;
    • Ensuring that goals and scope are understood by everyone on the Scrum teams;
    • Finding techniques for effective backlog management;
    • Helping the Scrum teams understand the need for clear and concise backlog items;
    • Understanding product planning in an R&D driven environment;

What you will be doing within engineering

    • Coaching the development teams in self-organization and cross-functionality;
    • Removing impediments to the development team’s progress;
    • Facilitating scrum events as requested or needed;
    • Coaching the development teams in organizational environments in which Scrum is not yet fully adopted and understood;

Typical day

    • Leading and coaching the organization in its Scrum adoption;
    • Planning scrum implementations within the organization;
    • Helping employees and stakeholders understand and enact Scrum and empirical product development;
    • Working with Product Owners to increase the effectiveness of the application of Scrum in the organization;

About you

    • You’re extremely passionate about Ethereum
    • Your primary interest is in privacy and scaling of blockchain infrastructure;
    • You’re a collaborator at heart, that loves to share knowledge with others
    • You’re proactive and results oriented, having the ability to prioritize and meet challenging details
    • You have strong technical skills
To apply please include a cover letter and a resume or CV and your github profile

What is Zero-knowledge?

Zero-knowledge is a concept in cryptography that allows two parties to exchange information without revealing any additional information beyond what is necessary to prove a particular fact

In other words, zero-knowledge is a way of proving something without actually revealing any details about the proof

Here are some examples of zero-knowledge:

  1. Password authentication: When you enter your password to log into an online account, the server doesn't actually know your password. Instead, it checks to see if the hash of your password matches the stored hash in its database. This is a form of zero-knowledge because the server doesn't know your actual password, just the hash that proves you know the correct password.
  2. Sudoku puzzles: Suppose you want to prove to someone that you've solved a particularly difficult Sudoku puzzle. You could do this by providing them with the completed puzzle, but that would reveal how you solved it. Instead, you could use a zero-knowledge proof where you demonstrate that you know the solution without actually revealing the solution itself.
  3. Bitcoin transactions: In a Bitcoin transaction, you prove that you have ownership of a certain amount of Bitcoin without revealing your private key. This is done using a zero-knowledge proof called a Schnorr signature, which allows you to prove ownership of a specific transaction output without revealing the private key associated with that output.
  4. Secure messaging: In a secure messaging app, you can prove to your contacts that you have access to a shared secret without revealing the secret itself. This is done using a zero-knowledge proof, which allows you to prove that you have access to the secret without actually revealing what the secret is.
