After recently raising $225M in series A funding led by Paradigm, we are growing our team.\nThe Role\n\nMonad Labs is looking for an exceptional compiler engineer to work on challenging greenfield projects that accelerate bytecode execution. For example, you will work on a bytecode execution graph builder which will enable speculative pre-execution of potential control flow paths. Your work will require intensive research and engineering and will help accelerate a platform securing billions of dollars in value. You will report to the CTO. Experience with crypto is not expected.\nWhat You’ll Do\n\n\n* Work on greenfield performance-oriented projects in a fast-moving startup environment\n\n* Research ideas for accelerating EVM bytecode execution\n\n* Design and implement performant production systems\n\n\n\nWho You Are\n\n\n* Proven track record in compiler design and system architecture\n\n* Strong background in software engineering principles\n\n* Experience with industry-standard compiler technologies\n\n* Good understanding of testing infrastructure and how to leverage it to test compiler features\n\n* Industry and/or academic experience working on compilers for parallel architectures\n\n* Strong C++ programming skills\n\n\n\nWhy work with us\n\n\n\nChallenging problems. You’ll work on extremely challenging problems with massive impact.\n\n\nHuge opportunity. The Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) standard is ubiquitous, but existing EVM-compatible chains are very slow.
