๐ Please reference you found the job on Remote OK, this helps us get more companies to post here, thanks!
When applying for jobs, you should NEVER have to pay to apply. You should also NEVER have to pay to buy equipment which they then pay you back for later. Also never pay for trainings you have to do. Those are scams! NEVER PAY FOR ANYTHING! Posts that link to pages with "how to work online" are also scams. Don't use them or pay for them. Also always verify you're actually talking to the company in the job post and not an imposter. A good idea is to check the domain name for the site/email and see if it's the actual company's main domain name. Scams in remote work are rampant, be careful! Read more to avoid scams. When clicking on the button to apply above, you will leave Remote OK and go to the job application page for that company outside this site. Remote OK accepts no liability or responsibility as a consequence of any reliance upon information on there (external sites) or here.

What is the job?
Looking for challenging responsibilities in the most promising tech industry? Join us as the first QA Automation Engineer (in this particular product team) in the crypto financial industry, and you will get the most out of using new technologies and test methods.
You will accelerate your career and constantly improve technically by tackling these issues and being able to utilize the personal ยฃ2000/year budget for learning & development.
You will challenge all user scenarios and test cases to investigate all possibilities of failure across a range of Web apps, and API applications. You will make sure that happy path scenarios function as advertised, and that a massive array of potential error conditions all fail gracefully, predictably and in a meaningful way to end users.ย
During your first few months, you will start by defining the tools and frameworks required to have a complete suite of automated tests. This will involve diving into the applications features and functionality, rolling up your sleeves doing manual testing. With a better understanding under your belt, you will define test plans that can beย automated and cover UI and API testing, as well as testing failures in any of the subsystems, including databases, third-party services or other internal services.
What are we looking for?
You enjoy automating everything, the thought of repeating tasks manually makes you shiver, but you understand the need to do exploratory manual testing to create test plans.
You have experience testing Web apps, APIs applications in a fast delivering growth environment.
You are a hands-on, independent product tester with experience working in a multidisciplinary team formed of designers, Front and Backend developers and DevOps.
Youโre patient when dealing with others. Youโre a good listener, and happy to be a teacher when needed.
What skills do you need?
You have solid demonstrable experience as a QA Automation Engineer doing end-to-end testing.
You love breaking things and let your creativity go wild (e.g. functional and black-box testing, regression testing, system integration testing, load testing, manual testing).
You are proficient in at least one programming/scripting language such as Python, C#, Java or JavaScript.
Experience with BDD, TDD, or contract testing.
Docker and Git experience is important.
You have good knowledge and understanding of CI/CD cycles and integration test automation with CI/CD.
Who are we?ย
At RDX Works, weโre a team of like-minded thinkers who have long been convinced that weโre living in the earliest stages of a global financial revolution. This revolution is being fuelled by decentralized finance (or DeFi for short), which is enabling an assortment of pioneering developers and entrepreneurs to re-invent almost every financial product that is currently traded and invested in traditional markets, without requiring central authorities or siloed infrastructure. DeFi has captured a great deal of attention and investment in the crypto-aware niche, growing assets under management from $1 billion to over $200ย billion in a few years. Impressive as its growth has been, its current market size isnโt even a rounding error on the over $400 trillion held in traditional finance. Weโre focused on what it will take to go from billions to trillions.
RDX went back to first principles to come up with the right technical solutionโthe first layer-one protocol built specifically for mainstream DeFiโand we have already tested out at over 1 million transactions per second. Weโre keenly aware that the need for an infinitely scalable platform is only one prerequisite among many for mass adoption, and weโre also blazing new ground in the areas of purpose-built developer tools, user experiences, and regulatory integration.
We have forged a path deep into the future of what distributed ledger technology is going to look like and we need you to come and be part of the team that is making that happen right now.
If this job sounds like it was made for you, then please apply directly via the link or email [email protected] for more information.
Alternatively, if you feel like you donโt match all of the requirements, we would love you to still apply anyway. We understand that confidence gaps and imposter syndrome can get in the way of meeting incredible candidates and we wouldnโt want this to prevent us from meeting you; especially as we are big advocates of helping people learn & grow. This is also another reason we do not advertise salaries, we want to keep it as even a playing field as possible!

What is the job?
As a senior Rust software engineer at RDX Works, you will join a team of distributed systems engineers working to bring our smart contract functionality, Scrypto, to the Radix public network. Scrypto is a RDX-created framework and extension to the Rust programming language to enable the rapid and safe development of decentralized financial applications (dApps) that will power the future of DeFi into the mainstream. At RDX, we love Rust. Our smart-contract capability, Scrypto, is Rust-based, the new v2 Radix Engine is built from the ground-up in Rust, and weโre looking to extend its use to the code that runs the Radix Network. This is where we need your help.
When you join us, you will first come up to speed by aiding in the migration of part of the existing codebase from Java to Rust. Building upon this knowledge, you will venture into new territory, solving the challenges ahead to bring programmability to the Radix public network. From this point forward you will be making new ground right at the cutting edge of a rapidly evolving branch of computer science, as we embark on a journey towards a novel, massively sharded release which will enable unlimited scale.
Your days will be filled with hard, interesting problems - thinking through all the ways things can go wrong and coming up with solutions which are both elegant and practical - and then turning these into code. You will be tackling synchronization, consensus and networking problems that often have no perfect answer. You will meddle with dark powers best left untouched, learn more about decentralized systems than you dreamed was possible, and work with an inspiring team of incredible people. You will make your mother proud, even if youโre never quite able to properly explain to her what it is you built.
What are we looking for?
You are a prolific, confident coder, and are persistent in working problems to resolution
You possess strong attention to detail, and are rarely surprised by unconsidered edge cases
Youโve used generic types so much that the angle bracket keys on your keyboard are beginning to wear away
You are unafraid of working in a space where there is little prior art to refer to
You have done and like to do demonstrably hard things
You enjoy talking through tough problems with smart people, and are happy to accept ideas and approaches that you didnโt personally come up with
You are someone who started to learn Rust for fun and now have several years of experience under your belt
You are able to explain hard concepts in a clear and concise manner
What do you need?
Bachelorโs degree in Computer Science, Mathematics or similar
Solid commercial experience working as a Software Developer
Fluent in Rust and comfortable reading Java
Completely comfortable with asynchronous programming models
Some of the following experience will help you stand out:
Noddingly familiar with the practical aspects of asymmetric cryptography and zero-knowledge proofs, and having an understanding of the underlying theoretical foundations
First-hand experience working with large data sets and dealing with complex distributed systems, and are all too familiar with the attendant complications and gremlins that emerge once not-perfectly-reliable things start talking to each other over a not-perfectly-reliable network
Experience with or knowledge of authenticated data structures
Hands-on experience with big data tools such as Hadoop, Cassandra etc
Experience with blockchain/DLT development
Have a background in computer science or a scientific qualification with demonstrable experience in consensus
Experience implementing a BFT-style consensus protocol

Who are we?
At RDX Works, we're a team of like-minded thinkers who have long been convinced that we're living in the earliest stages of a global financial revolution. This revolution is being fuelled by decentralized finance (or DeFi for short), which is enabling an assortment of pioneering developers and entrepreneurs to re-invent almost every financial product that is currently traded and invested in traditional markets, without requiring central authorities or siloed infrastructure. DeFi has captured a great deal of attention and investment in the crypto-aware niche, growing assets under management from $1 billion to over $200 billion in a few years. Impressive as its growth has been, its current market size isn't even a rounding error on the over $400 trillion held in traditional finance. We're focused on what it will take to go from billions to trillions.
RDX went back to first principles to come up with the right technical solutionโthe first layer-one protocol built specifically for mainstream DeFiโand we have already tested out at over 1 million transactions per second. We're keenly aware that the need for an infinitely scalable platform is only one prerequisite among many for mass adoption, and we're also blazing new ground in the areas of purpose-built developer tools, user experiences, and regulatory integration.
We have forged a path deep into the future of what distributed ledger technology is going to look like and we need you to come and be part of the team that is making that happen right now.
