Software Engineer, Rollup Product

Optimism, San Francisco, California, United States, 94199


At Conduit, we're building the infrastructure platform that will scale Ethereum. We believe that a lack of compute has been holding back crypto app developers, and that we can unlock the next wave of innovation in the crypto ecosystem by providing turn-key chain infrastructure for the masses, like AWS and GCP did for Web2.We're a small team based in the Bay Area. We move fast, build high quality systems, and are open-minded enough to know that we always have more to learn.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.
