Rust Jobs for Rustaceans

About the Role
We’re looking for a Solana Blockchain Engineer to lead the design and development of on-chain programs on the Solana blockchain. You’ll contribute to innovative Web3 projects, working with low-level architecture and pushing the boundaries of scalability and performance.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design and develop smart contracts using Rust and the Solana SDK.
• Build and maintain on-chain programs for DeFi, NFT, or infrastructure use cases.
• Collaborate with product, backend, and frontend teams for seamless integration.
• Optimize programs for performance, cost efficiency, and security.
• Write unit tests and integration tests using Anchor or Solana testing tools.
• Participate in code reviews and architecture discussions.
• Stay current with updates to Solana’s tooling, runtimes, and ecosystem protocols.

Requirements:

• Strong experience building on Solana using Rust.
• Deep understanding of Solana’s account model, instructions, and PDAs.
• Experience with Anchor framework.
• Ability to write secure, auditable, and modular smart contracts.
• Familiarity with Web3 backend/frontend integrations (wallets, RPCs, indexers).
• Fluent in English. Spanish is a plus.

Nice-to-have

• Experience integrating with bridges (Wormhole, LayerZero).
• Familiarity with off-chain indexing tools (The Graph, Helius, custom indexers).
• Contributions to Solana open-source projects or hackathons.
• Understanding of cross-chain interoperability and token standards (SPL, wrapped assets).

** Why Rather Labs**

• Fully remote work with real autonomy and global collaboration.
• Paid time off, birthday leave, and personal days.
• Continuous learning: English classes, internal workshops, and training discounts.
• Holistic well-being: psychological support, wellness activities, and access to 2,500+ lifestyle benefits.
