Rust Jobs for Rustaceans

Key Responsibilities:
We're seeking a talented Rust Engineer to join our research team at LayerZero. In this role, you'll be instrumental in developing high-performance, secure, and scalable systems that advance blockchain interoperability and shape the future of decentralized applications.

• You have a strong understanding of Rust and can design and implement robust, efficient, and secure systems.
• You are comfortable writing clean, scalable, and well-tested code.
• You enjoy working in a fast-paced start-up environment, where you'll need to take initiative and solve problems independently.
• Pushing code that supports tens of billions of dollars of daily transactional volume doesn't scare you.
• You are curious and eager to learn new technologies and design patterns.
• You're not afraid to navigate up and down a deep technical stack. You don't define yourself by the tools you know, only by the problems you solve.
• You are able to articulate complex technical concepts clearly and succinctly.
• You have excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 2+ years of experience in systems programming, with a strong focus on Rust.
• You have conviction in your architecture/designs/ideas but are open minded to share and build solutions with others.
• Experience with AWS services, particularly related to deploying, managing, and scaling applications.
• Proficiency in backend development languages, such as Typescript.
• Experience working with workflow engines.
• Previous experience with blockchain technologies, smart contracts, and decentralized finance is a strong plus.
