About the Role

As a Protocol Research Engineer at Raiku, you’ll dive deep into Solana’s consensus mechanisms, validator dynamics, and block-building edge cases to help push the boundaries of what’s possible on-chain. Your work will directly inform and evolve Raiku’s infrastructure — including ahead-of-time auctions, deterministic inclusion, and decentralized execution environments.

This role is ideal for an engineer who obsesses over protocol-level behavior, from slashing conditions and fork choice rules to novel token incentive structures and inclusion guarantees. You will collaborate closely with our core engineering team, lead technical research deep-dives, and shape future SIMD proposals and Raiku-native designs.

Core Responsibilities

Protocol Research & Development

• Analyze Solana protocol changes (SIMDs) and model their impact on consensus, block production, and validator incentives.
• Explore alternative leader schedules, transaction scheduling policies, and failure recovery mechanisms.
• Design and prototype changes to Raiku’s validator sidecar, ackermann-node, and execution environment logic.

Incentives & Economics

• Simulate and reason about token-level economics (e.g. fee markets, slot auctions, stake redistribution) in the context of Raiku’s architecture.
• Collaborate with the team on reward structures that align validators, apps, and execution primitives.
• Contribute to internal tooling for simulating validator behavior under new fee models or coordination layers.

Research & Thought Leadership

• Write internal memos and public-facing research exploring protocol edge cases, inclusion determinism, and priority fee market design.
• Lead technical discussions and workshops across the team and ecosystem partners.

What We’re Looking For

• Deep understanding of Solana’s architecture, consensus algorithm (Tower BFT), and validator mechanics.
• Proficiency in systems programming (Rust or C++) and experience working with validator or node clients (Agave, Jito, etc.).
• Comfort reasoning about distributed systems, forks, slashing, transaction lifecycle, and fee markets.
• Demonstrated ability to write clear, technical research — either internal design docs or public content.

Who are we?

We believe Ethereum has the potential to solve some of humanity’s most crucial coordination issues. Since our initial inception as a research group, we have sought to scale both its technology and values.

At present, the most pressing bottleneck to the growth of Ethereum is its performance and scalability. We are building the most elegant solution to this problem. We do this in the open (under an MIT open source license) because we believe in open source innovation and its ability to accelerate growth.

OP Labs contributes to the Optimism protocol, an extension to Ethereum that scales both its technology and values. Optimism enables orders of magnitude of improved performance and scalability to Ethereum while doubling down on its commitment to public goods.
