We are looking for someone to design and implement next-generation protocol primitives that facilitate machine-verifiable commitments, state attestations, and autonomous coordination within decentralized environments. This role fuses protocol research and systems engineering, laying the groundwork for next-generation physical intelligence systems.

Responsibilities:

  • Design cryptoeconomic systems that support verifiable commitments and programmable state transitions.
  • Explore identity, attestation, and reputation primitives in decentralized settings.
  • Develop secure mechanisms for cross-network coordination and minimizing trust requirements.
  • Formalize security assumptions and adversarial models for protocol elements.
  • Prototype and benchmark new consensus or validation mechanisms.
  • Collaborate with engineering teams to transition research outcomes into production.
  • Write technical specifications and research documentation.
  • Take part in protocol audits and formal security assessments.
  • Interact with the research community through publications and open-source initiatives.

Qualifications:

  • Strong background in distributed systems, cryptography, or applied mathematics.
  • Proven experience in designing blockchain or decentralized protocol systems.
  • In-depth knowledge of consensus mechanisms and cryptoeconomic incentives.
  • Familiarity with digital identity, attestation systems, or verifiable data models.
  • Proficiency in Rust, Go, or other systems-level programming languages.
  • Capability to move from theoretical concepts to practical implementations.

Nice to Have:

  • Experience with zero-knowledge systems or verifiable computation.
  • Understanding of decentralized identity (DID) or credential frameworks.
  • Background in mechanism design or formal protocol modeling.
  • Contributions to Layer 1/Layer 2 solutions or interoperability protocols.
  • Published research or contributions to open-source protocols.

Work Conditions:

  • Join a cooperative and globally minded team culture dedicated to shaping the future.
  • Engage in projects that bear national and global significance.
  • Benefit from a competitive compensation package, healthcare, educational support, and generous leave options.

Language Requirements:

  • Proficiency in English is required; additional languages are advantageous.
