Nomic Labs
Senior Software Engineer, Compiler
Nomic Labs, Mission, Kansas, United States,
Who we are
The Nomic Foundation
is a non-profit advancing the Ethereum ecosystem. We build open-source runtimes, compilers, build systems, and deployment solutions that are used by tens of thousands of developers. We emphasize robust engineering and lean processes, allowing for quick decision-making and distraction-free software development. You have the opportunity to shape the future of the Ethereum ecosystem through deep technical work on critical developer infrastructure, where your specific contributions will have a tangible impact.About the team
The Slang team builds a modular set of compiler APIs for Solidity code analysis. Our users are internal and external developers integrating our APIs in their developer tools to process Solidity code and make it easier to build smart contracts for their end users. The project is at an early stage working towards feature completeness. We aim to upgrade the Solidity developer experience and tooling ecosystem in the long term.This is a fully-remote role, and we’re open to candidates applying within UTC+2 to UTC-4 timezones.What you’ll do:
Designing and implementing features in
Rust
in the
compiler , language specification, and testing infrastructure
Work on an
open-source
project while helping triage Github issues and supporting users
Tackle large, complex, and ambiguous projects, starting from a set of high-level product requirements
Identify and/or clarify requirements and analyze tradeoffs, risks, dependencies, user value, and non-functional requirements
Deep dive into user pain points, concerns, and requests
Independently solve tasks that range from complex design/architecture issues and complex previously unknown blockers to churning through coding tasks and bugs at a high pace
Uncover unknowns or gaps and prototype solutions for major risks
Act as a force multiplier for the team
Contribute to
project management
and
roadmap planning . You’ll outline risks and dependencies and break down scopes and roadmap items into tangible milestones while optimizing for fast delivery
Keep
timely communication
with management stakeholders, other engineering teams, and other functions
Coach other engineers on technical topics
Who we’re looking for:
At least
5 years
of experience working on
systems software
5+ years of experience with
C++
OR 2+ years of working with
Rust
You have a
product-oriented mindset . You focus on future usage of what you’re building, always considering its impact, and make trade-offs accordingly
Prior experience working in a
remote
and globally distributed environment. We work mostly asynchronously, so the ability to take
ownership
strongly and work with minimal direction is crucial
Experienced in cross-team collaboration
As this is an early-stage project, we are seeking a teammate who is comfortable adapting to changing requirements
Knowledge of Ethereum is a plus, especially low-level concepts, but it’s not required
Compensation and benefits:
Unlimited PTO
Budget for IT equipment
Annual Learning & Development Budget
Vesting ETH grant as part of total compensation
Statutory benefits specific to your location (depending on the employment contract)
Why join us?
Mission-driven value creationYour contributions will directly impact an ecosystem that is shaping the future of finance, data, and ownership. You won’t be working on optimizing a revenue stream to increase shareholder profits; you’ll create value for the Ethereum community and developer ecosystem.Lean and robustWe run robust engineering practices and lightweight processes that provide us with structure and fast decision-making. Your time will be spent on technical challenges, coding, and launching features.We value diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. We recognize they are essential to growth and innovation, and sometimes the perfect candidate might not tick every box in the job description. If you're passionate about what you do and have valuable experience - we want to hear from you. Your unique background and skills could be just what our team needs and we warmly encourage you to apply.
