The Role

We are looking for systems researchers with a strong interest in databases and operating systems. Candidates with research experience in systems verification, operating systems, multi-core algorithms, or systems architecture, are an ideal match. You will be part of a small, deeply technical team, working on high-impact problems in a fast-paced environment. Although we are building a new blockchain, previous experience with crypto is not expected.

What You Will Do

• Designing performant algorithms and architectures related to storage or recovery, in single-node or distributed environments.

• Researching new architectures

• Tech stack: C++, clang, LLVM, gdb, perf, unix, git

Who You Are

• PhD in Computer Science or equivalent

• Significant research experience into databases or operating systems

• Experience writing performant algorithms

• Experience writing production-grade code

• Resourceful and self-motivated

• Collaborative

• Adaptive; able to make meaningful contributions in a fast-paced environment

• Curious about lower-level system details

• Interested in building high-value, performant and distributed systems
