Global-Jobs in Großbritannien

You will work with the system that redefines how assets are minted, transferred, and managed, ensuring security and atomic consistency through a compact on-chain infrastructure that prevents double-spending. You will be delivering a multi-layered protocol stack (PoW, BFT, SMT aggregation, State Transition & Agent SDK), and are now scaling fast into advanced distributed systems and ZK-integrated modules.

• Architect, design, and implement core components of the stack, including:
• Proof of Work (PoW) consensus engine in C++
• BFT consensus layer in Golang
• SMT / proof aggregation layer, including ZK applications
• Collaborate across layers to ensure seamless integration, from mining through to off-chain asset handling and crypto-economic guarantees.
• Build the State Transition SDK and shape the upcoming Agent Execution SDK, enabling off-chain transactions and verifiable, composable agent-driven logic.
• Optimize for scalability, performance, and security, particularly in high-throughput, distributed environments.
• Design and validate consensus protocols, including Byzantine Fault Tolerant mechanisms and cross-chain bridge communication.
• Work closely with research colleagues on ZK-proof integrations, SMT sharding, and next-gen cryptographic primitives.

• Build a future-defining blockchain protocol that breaks free from monolithic, slow ledgers and centralized execution.
• Work with a small, world-class team pushing the frontier of high-throughput off-chain computation with on-chain security.
• Shape the future of open-source tools, State Transition and Agent SDKs that empower developers globally.

• 5+ years of production experience in systems engineering, with advanced proficiency in Golang and/or C/C++
• Deep knowledge of distributed systems
• Strong experience in cryptography, Merkle / sparse Merkle trees
• Proven ability to operate in fast-paced startups or open-source protocol environments
• Clear, effective communicator, great at collaborating in cross-functional, multidisciplinary teams
• Bonus experience:
• Cryptographic protocol design, consensus protocols, cross-chain bridges
• Zero-knowledge proofs
• Performance profiling
