Middle Rust Blockchain Developer

Overview

Join an international team building the core blockchain client for a next-generation data-centric Layer-1 network. The project already runs a large-scale testnet and is gearing up for mainnet launch. You’ll develop and maintain key components of the Rust-based client, ensuring stability, performance and correctness as the network scales.

What you’ll do

• Build, test, and maintain core modules of the blockchain client (UTXO set, mempool, transaction validation, P2P layer).
• Write reliable, high-performance Rust code following async patterns (Tokio or async-std).
• Participate in code reviews, testnet operations and release engineering.
• Contribute to CI/CD pipelines and testing harnesses for multi-node environments.
• Collaborate with distributed teams (Mexico, India, USA) in daily development cycles.

What we’re looking for

• 3–5 years professional Rust experience.
• Solid understanding of systems programming concepts: concurrency, memory safety, async runtime.
• Familiarity with blockchain internals — UTXO model, Merkle trees, signatures (ECDSA/secp256k1).
• Experience with persistent storage (RocksDB/LMDB/LevelDB or similar).
• Comfort working in Linux, Docker, and CI environments (GitHub Actions or similar).
• Strong commitment to clean, testable code and proactive communication.

Nice to have

• Experience running or monitoring blockchain nodes or testnets.
• Understanding of consensus mechanisms and networking in distributed systems.
• Exposure to container orchestration (Kubernetes, Terraform) and observability (Prometheus, Grafana).
