Rust Jobs for Rustaceans

About the Role
We are hiring for one of our ecosystem projects - a MEV Powered Staking platform. They are seeking an experienced MEV Developer to design, develop, and optimize backend systems for MEV infrastructure and trading solutions. 

Key Responsibilities

• Design and implement scalable backend systems for MEV-related infrastructure, including transaction ordering, bundle processing, and block-building pipelines.
• Develop and optimize MEV searchers, trading strategies, or block-building algorithms to maximize on-chain value extraction.
• Collaborate with blockchain engineers to integrate MEV solutions with existing protocols and layer-1/layer-2 networks.
• Monitor and analyze on-chain data to identify new MEV opportunities and improve system performance.
• Ensure high reliability, low latency, and security of MEV infrastructure components.

Requirements

• 4+ years of backend programming languages such as Rust and/ or C++ for low-latency, high-performance systems.
• Experienced in MEV infrastructure companies (e.g., Jito, Flashbots, Bloxroute) or MEV trading/searching/block-building firms.
• Deep understanding of blockchain protocols (e.g., Ethereum, Solana) and MEV mechanisms (e.g., transaction ordering, arbitrage, liquidations).
• Experience with distributed systems, consensus algorithms, and mempool management.
• Strong grasp of MEV strategies, including front-running, back-running, and sandwich attacks, as well as block-building techniques.
• Ability to optimize complex systems for performance and cost-efficiency in dynamic blockchain environments.
• Excellent communication skills and experience working in cross-functional teams.
