About the Role
Join a pioneering P2P development platform that eliminates the need for traditional server infrastructure. Our open-source technology stack, Pear, facilitates the direct deployment of applications from the developer’s machine to the user, enabling seamless scalability and performance. By leveraging Node.js-based technology similar to BitTorrent, we create robust peer-to-peer connections and data replication systems that lay the foundation for a decentralized web.
Our flagship P2P communications app, Keet, showcases the potential of P2P technology in everyday applications, ranging from messaging and file sharing to complex collaborative environments, all while maintaining user sovereignty over personal data.
