Engineering · Full-time · Houston, United States
Syndica is creating the Cloud of Web3. We supply the most critical applications in Web3 with enterprise-grade RPC infrastructure and developer tools tailored for the Solana ecosystem. Joining our team means you'll be held to a high standard, technically challenged, and grow close to a group of individuals passionate about building new infrastructure technologies.
We are backed by strategic partners, investors, and advisors who are all-in on our mission: Chamath Palihapitiya of Social Capital, Steve Jang of Kindred Ventures, Joe McCann of Asymmetric, Jump Crypto, Coinbase Ventures, Solana Ventures, Circle Ventures, and many more.
You are a talented engineer who thrives in a collaborative and fast-paced environment.
You're excited about contributing to the decentralization of blockchain ecosystems.
You have 3+ years of related professional experience using Rust (experience in memory-managed languages (Zig/C/C++) is nice to have but not required).
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or relevant experience.
As a Senior Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in designing and implementing a high-performance Solana validator client from scratch.
The team you’d be joining is building a new open-source Solana validator client, Sig, using the Zig programming language. You can find more technical details about the project in the original announcement here.
The role’s primary responsibility will involve understanding the Solana Labs’ validator implementation codebase, written in Rust, and translating, optimizing, and improving the implementation in Zig (take a peek at the current work here!).
