Software Engineer – Crypto Jobs

Job Type: Software Engineer from home
Location: Texas work from home
Company: Status

Waku is being developed as a public utility. Waku is Web3’s communications layer.

Anybody can send and receive messages on this decentralized, censorship-resistant, privacy-preserving communication network without fear of being watched or deplatformed.

We are creating three Waku implementations that are open source:

• Nwaku: the service node and benchmark implementation
• Js-waku: a browser extension
• To incorporate as a library in native apps, use go-waku.

We make it possible for Ethereum developers to construct new apps with a completely decentralized architecture, such as layer-2 decentralization, dApp to Wallet alerts, NFT marketplaces, censorship-resistant chat, and more.

We are seeking for a software engineer who is enthusiastic about decentralization and Ethereum. And who would be thrilled to have the chance to promote Waku to other Web3 developers and projects.

Responsibilities:

• Create, use, and record Waku Golang libraries (go-waku)
• Maintain, enhance, and resolve Waku React Native, the go-waku React Native wrapper
• Adopt new guidelines established by the research team
• Look at and resolve problems with go-waku and upstream libraries like go-libp2p
• Go-waku and upstream libraries should be optimized for mobile and React Native.
• Encourage the use of go-waku and Waku Golang libraries by dApp developers.

Requirements:

• Ability to learn new ideas and technologies fast; you are a polyglot; experience developing applications with complicated logic, cutting-edge technology, or applied research
• Willing to keep up a native React Native library
• Golang library building expertise for network and mobile contexts
• Strong communication abilities (written and conversational)
• Solid adherence to our beliefs
• If you are already familiar with the Ethereum community, you get bonus points.
• You’ve used go-libp2p or another libp2p implementation before.
• You are familiar with C-Bindings and Cgo.
• You have experience working for an open source organization and are involved in Web3 or blockchain development
• You’ve worked async before.
• If you think you’d be a wonderful fit for this role even if you don’t satisfy all of these requirements, please get in touch with us. Just be sure to include a reason in your cover letter.
