Senior Software Engineer - Shape the Foundations of a New Global Network

Are you ready to solve one of the biggest problems around trust?

The internet was built without a native trust layer. This fundamental gap creates friction, duplicates effort, and hinders innovation. At Cortwo, we’re not just iterating; we're building something entirely new – a trusted global network where identity is woven into the very fabric of technology, finally moving trust from the application layer to the network layer. This is a paradigm shift.

Backed by significant funding and guided by leaders with a track record of building category-defining companies, Cortwo is poised to fundamentally change how the world connects and interacts online.

Role Summary

As a Senior Engineer at Cortwo, you will be at the forefront of developing our groundbreaking trust platform using Rust. This is a hands-on, high-impact role where you will contribute to the architecture, design, and implementation of a robust, scalable, and distributed system. Your expertise in Rust, coupled with your experience in large-scale system development, will be crucial in driving the success of our platform. You will work closely with our engineering and product teams to bring our vision to life, ensuring high performance, reliability, and security across all layers of our system.

• Mentor and guide junior developers, fostering a culture of continuous learning and technical excellence.
• Share knowledge and provide technical leadership in Rust and related technologies.
• Work closely with product managers, QA, and DevOps teams to deliver high-quality software that meets business requirements and user needs.
• Participate in code reviews, providing constructive feedback to peers and ensuring adherence to best practices.
• Continuously evaluate and adopt new technologies and methodologies to improve the efficiency and quality of our development processes.
• Proactively identify and address technical debt, performance bottlenecks, and other areas for improvement.
• Perform other related duties to support team objectives and evolving responsibilities as assigned.

Qualifications

Experience:

• 9+ years of experience in software development, with a strong focus on system-level programming and large-scale distributed systems.

Technical Skills:

• Expert knowledge of Rust, including its ecosystem, best practices, and idiomatic usage.
• Strong understanding of distributed systems, network protocols, and cloud environments.
• Experience with containerization technologies (e.g., Docker) and modern CI/CD pipelines.
• Proficiency in database design and implementation, particularly with high-performance NoSQL and SQL databases.

Leadership:

• Demonstrated ability to lead technical initiatives and mentor junior engineers.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
