By making infrastructure simple and onchain compute abundant, similar to how AWS and GCP did for web2, we can unlock the next wave of innovation in the crypto ecosystem.

The Conduit platform has seen massive growth since going live in 2023. We run the largest chains in production, including Proof of Play, Zora, Aevo, and more. This translates to 200+ chains across mainnet and testnet and over $1B in total-value-locked (TVL). We’re operating on the bleeding edge of crypto, co-evolving with our customers and integration partners, and pushing the limits of blockchain scalability and modularity.

This success has been recognized and accelerated through a $37M Series A, co-led by Paradigm and Haun Ventures — two of the best investors in the industry.

We’re an elite team that’s previously worked at Meta, Brex, Wish, Compound, Chainalysis, Immunefi, Amazon, Avara/Aave, Paradigm, and more. We’re headquartered in San Francisco, with team members all over the world.

We’re looking for ambitious, talented builders that want to help scale Ethereum and bring crypto compute to the masses. Join us!

About the Role

In this role you’ll be working closely with the CEO to develop, maintain, and the rollup stack offerings and customizations made possible by our leading Rollup-as-a-Service platform. You’ll develop custom precompiles and whitelisted contract deployers that create entirely new or more efficient functionality, as well as help us expand our support for emerging L2s. We value people who can quickly obtain a deep technical understanding, are able to quickly create proof-of-concepts to validate entirely new approaches, and enjoy being self-directed and identifying the most important problems to solve.

As a Software Engineer, Rollup Product you should:

  • A strong background in distributed systems, cryptography, and network protocols.
  • Have some experience hacking on the various rollups, understand the underlying components, and have opinions about the various trade-offs of those components and platforms.
  • Have some experience with hacking on EVM node software.
  • Have a deep understanding of the EVM and how external tooling integrates with it.
  • Familiarity with multiple programming languages, including but not limited to Golang, Rust, and Solidity.
  • Contribute to defining Conduit’s product strategy and roadmap with the rest of the team.

We think you’ll find this work really exciting if you:

  • Love rollups and their potential to exponentially scale Ethereum, and are excited about building best-in-class tooling and infrastructure for it and around it.
  • You’re excited to architect, build, and deploy the systems, services, and integrations that help our rollups connect with other ecosystem partners.
  • Have experience tinkering with optimistic and ZK rollups and deploying applications to the various chains.
  • Can debug problems across the stack, such as networking issues, performance problems, or memory leaks
  • Own problems end-to-end, and are willing to pick up whatever knowledge you’re missing to get the job done

Our tech stack

Our infrastructure is built on Kubernetes, Postgres, and Cloud Tasks on GCP, and the products on top utilize a mix of React, Javascript/Typescript, Go, Rust, and Postgres. While we value experience with these technologies, we are primarily looking for engineers with strong technical skills and the ability to quickly pick up new tools and frameworks.

Conduit does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, non-disqualifying physical or mental disability, national origin, veteran status or any other basis covered by appropriate law.

  • Experience distilling customer, product, and business requirements into scalable solutions
  • Experience debugging complex issues across the stack, such as networking issues, performance problems, or memory leaks
  • Collaborate effectively with other engineers to solve complex technical problems (mentoring, peer-reviews, design reviews, etc.).

We think you’ll find this work really exciting if you:

  • Are excited about building robust public-facing, large-scale, always-on services
  • Love building and iterating on new technologies in a fast-paced environment

Our tech stack

A flavor of technologies in-use:

  • Languages: Golang, python, rust
