Description:

Superis Labs is building a high-performance perpetual futures DEX on Solana.
The first production MVP is currently underway, and early team members will define core architecture and protocol design.
The company is fully backed by Ergonia, a crypto-native market-making firm and venture builder with extensive experience in trading and building on Solana.
The role involves building production systems under aggressive timelines, starting from a deliberately minimal core and iterating rapidly toward a full-featured mainnet exchange.
Responsibilities include designing and building the core on-chain and backend systems that power a perpetual exchange, focusing on correctness, performance, and simplicity.
Key tasks involve building core exchange logic, implementing liquidity sources, ensuring cohesive system operation, optimizing systems for performance, writing tests, improving developer tooling, and deploying production-grade Solana smart contracts in Rust.

Requirements:

Candidates must have 3+ years of professional software development experience.
Strong proficiency in Rust is required, with production experience preferred or a willingness to learn.
A solid understanding of backend fundamentals, including APIs, distributed systems, and async systems, is necessary.
Experience with low-latency or performance-sensitive systems is essential.
Familiarity with DeFi, trading systems, or derivatives is preferred.
An ownership mindset and comfort working in an early-stage environment are important.
Strong English communication skills are required.

The position offers competitive base salary along with meaningful token/equity upside.
Early team members will receive ownership aligned with the long-term success of the protocol.
The role is fully remote, allowing for flexibility in work location.
Employees can participate in IRL meetups and company offsites, fostering team collaboration and connection.
