🛠 Tech Stack

💼 About This Role

You'll implement messaging protocols in Rust and own the SDK's API design and developer experience. Your work will directly enable permissionless, interoperable communication for a freer internet. This is frontier protocol engineering with real ownership over systems that have no established playbook.

🎯 What You'll Do

• Implement messaging protocols in Rust for reliable production SDKs
• Own API design and developer experience of the SDK surface
• Contribute to messaging protocol specifications
• Write technical documentation and participate in async design discussions

📋 Requirements

• Deep familiarity with real-world instant messaging systems like Signal or Matrix
• Experience with decentralised computing or peer-to-peer systems
• Comfort working with cryptographic primitives and secure messaging principles
• Solid Rust experience in a team setting

✨ Nice to Have

• Experience with Post-Quantum Cryptography
• Experience with MLS (RFC 9420) or OpenMLS library
• Familiarity with Waku or libp2p

🎁 Benefits & Perks

• 🏖️ Remote-first culture with async work
• 💰 Flexible compensation in fiat or crypto
• 🌐 Open source impact on decentralised communication
• 🧠 Frontier tech problems with real ownership
