A rapidly scaling Web3 infrastructure company is hiring a Staff Software Engineer to help build and optimize the core execution layer of a high-performance, proof-of-stake network designed for enterprise and decentralized applications.
The platform is open source, EVM-compatible, and governed by leading global organizations across multiple sectors. It’s engineered for speed, security, stability, and sustainability—serving as the foundation for everything from tokenized assets to real-time consensus applications.
As a senior technical leader on the Execution Team, you’ll work on the heart of the distributed ledger: transaction processing, native services, rewards, fee systems, and record generation.

Designing, developing, and optimizing core execution services in a high-scale distributed environment
-
Building APIs and business logic for native ledger services (crypto, token, consensus, file)
-
Ensuring correctness, determinism, and security in transaction processing
-
Profiling and optimizing concurrent systems for high-throughput workloads
-
Leading architecture decisions and mentoring engineers in distributed systems best practices
-
Collaborating with cross-functional teams and open-source contributors
What They’re Looking For:
-
7+ years of professional software engineering experience, including senior/staff-level leadership
-
Strong expertise in Java, with deep understanding of concurrency and performance tuning
-
Experience building and scaling distributed systems
-
Solid grasp of data structures, algorithms, and system design
-
Background in API design (gRPC preferred)
-
Skilled in debugging and profiling complex concurrent systems
-
Bonus points for experience with blockchain/DLT platforms, cryptographic systems, or event-driven architectures
Why Apply?
-
Competitive compensation + equity
-
Work on one of the most performant, sustainable distributed ledgers in the market
-
Fully remote flexibility with opportunities to collaborate in person
-
Shape open-source infrastructure used by developers and enterprises worldwide
