Remote Senior Engineer (P2P & Rust)

Description:

• Nomos is seeking a Senior Engineer with strong Rust and P2P experience to join their team.
• The role involves implementing and optimizing decentralized P2P protocols for network infrastructure.
• Responsibilities include building production-level P2P network components based on technical specifications and developing proof-of-concepts for peer-to-peer communication layers.
• The engineer will also engineer resilient distributed systems for Byzantine fault-tolerant environments and analyze and optimize real-world P2P network performance, focusing on latency, throughput, and node scalability.
• Additionally, the role requires maintaining and enhancing the Rust-based P2P networking stack.

Requirements:

• Candidates must have solid experience in Rust, which is non-negotiable.
• Proven P2P engineering experience is required, including the implementation of peer discovery, data propagation, or network topologies, as well as building decentralized systems in Byzantine environments.
• The ability to operationalize P2P research into production code is essential.
• Candidates should have proven experience in Distributed Systems, with strong knowledge of consensus mechanisms, distributed storage, or gossip protocols, and performance tuning of large-scale node networks.
• A background in Computer Science or Mathematics fundamentals, particularly in cryptography, algorithms, and networking, is necessary.
• Strong technical communication skills, including code documentation and system diagrams, are required.
• A strong interest in privacy-preserving, censorship-resistant, and open protocols is also important.

Benefits:

• Compensation for this role can be provided in any mix of fiat or cryptocurrency.
