Mysten Labs is focused on creating foundational infrastructure to accelerate the adoption of decentralized protocols based on blockchain technologies.
The new team, Interop, will extend the responsibilities of the Data Platform team to support a broader set of RPC and data-heavy services built on top of Sui.
The Interop Layer will provide systems support for services that run on Sui, including aspects of Sui interactions, state management, production reliability, and release management.
The Interop team will own horizontal systems that interface directly with the Sui network, such as Sui RPC nodes, and support verticals that span teams including Cryptography, Move Platform, and Walrus by productionizing their externally-facing services.
Requirements:
Candidates must have 5+ years of experience in hands-on software engineering, including methodologies to ensure the correctness and performance of implemented components.
