🗓  Sun, Sep 8 Blockchain C C++ Computer Science Crypto EVM Ethereum Git/Github Dental insurance Health/medical insurance Vision insurance

Founded by Jump Trading alums, Monad Labs is a tech startup using low-latency programming, compiler optimization, and multithreaded computing to build an ultra-high-performance smart contract platform. The work entails building an optimal stack-based VM that supports multithreaded computation, as well as developing and implementing an efficient Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) algorithm enabling a network of nodes to come to consensus. We are a team of systems engineers and community builders who are on a mission to help crypto eat the world. After recently raising $225M in series A funding, led by Paradigm, we are growing our team.   The Role Monad Labs is looking for strong C++ software engineers who enjoy solving challenging performance engineering and low-level optimization problems. Candidates with experience developing systems with lean memory and compute limits are an ideal match. You will be part of a small, deeply technical team, working on high-impact problems in a fast-paced environment. Although we are building a new blockchain, previous experience with crypto is not expected. What you will do

You’ll be optimizing a high-performance multithreaded stack-based VM, as well as ancillary functionality (disk I/O, computation metering, network) You’ll be identifying bottlenecks through profiling, and evaluate design choices for accelerating computation flow You’ll be designing and implementing architecture improvements You’ll contribute to team tooling, utilizing our tech stack:: C++, clang, LLVM, gdb, perf, unix, git

What you’ve done

You have at least 5 years of C++ development experience You have significant experience in HFT or embedded systems development, such as writing software for packet processing, communication, codecs, robotics, etc. You have excellent instincts for software architecture, memory management, and performance optimization/profiling tools You have a bachelor’s in Computer Science or equivalent

Attributes

You are opinionated about software architecture You are motivated to push the limits of system performance through repeated optimization You are interested in building high-value fault-tolerant distributed systems

Why work with us

Challenging problems. You’ll work on extremely challenging problems with massive impact. Huge opportunity. The Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) standard is ubiquitous, but existing EVM-compatible chains are very slow. Monad’s core innovations offer developers the best of both worlds (portability and performance) and are a game-changer for mass user adoption in crypto. The right team. You’ll be part of a small, exceptional team (bios here). Culture. We’re a lean team working together to achieve very ambitious goals. We are united in our culture of collaboration, low egos, and high-quality outputs. As an early member of our team, you’ll help continue to shape our culture. Compensation.
