Job description

Software Engineer - Tristero

About the Position:

We're on the lookout for clever, early-stage software engineers. At Tristero, we build high-performance distributed systems, and our engineers play a pivotal role in the company's success. Our work involves systems design and implementation, primarily in Golang. Our culture embraces experimentation and intellectual curiosity, favoring pragmatic, straightforward solutions over more complex but theoretically perfect ones.

About You:

• Autodidactic: You thrive on self-guided learning and exploration.
• Assertive: You are confident in voicing your thoughts on alternative approaches.
• Systems-Oriented: You understand the broader impact of your code on the system as a whole.
• Intrapersonal Skills: You want to be part of a small, high-caliber team.

Helpful Qualifications:

• You've recently graduated from a top engineering school (or are willing to drop out).
• Experience in Golang, Python, or Rust.
• Familiarity with cryptography or crypto-L2s.
• Exposure to DevOps, statistics, and system architecture.

While helpful, we don't require you to have experience with systems design, Golang, or crypto; we're happy to hire clever engineers and support them.
