\n\nAbout Protocol Labs\n\nProtocol Labs drives breakthroughs in computing to push humanity forward. Protocol Labs is a product-development lab, but behind the protocols and tools we build, behind the research and implementations, are passionate people, teammates, and community members. Most teams in the Protocol Labs Network are fully distributed and work remotely around the world. Engineers, researchers, and operators work in the open to improve the internet โ humanity's most important technology โ as we explore new advances at the intersection of many exciting fields (crypto, networks, distributed systems) and cultures (startups, research, open-source, distributed work).\n\nDefine and build elegant, performant, and resilient systems for tomorrow's web.\n\nWe are hiring Distributed Systems Engineers to work on implementations of protocols like IPFS, Filecoin and libp2p. Enthusiasm about the decentralized web and blockchains has brought an influx of people who want to _use_ distributed systems but who don't know _how to build_ the necessary infrastructure. We are building that infrastructure. To continue that work, we're looking for people who thoroughly understand the principles of distributed systems and cryptography, and who will lean into the challenges of applying those principles in open-source code that will be deployed worldwide.\nDistributed Systems Engineering at Protocol Labs\n\nDistributed systems engineering lies at the center of many projects at Protocol Labs. With IPFS, libp2p, Filecoin and other related projects we are laying the foundation for a more resilient, more secure, distributed version of the web. This requires rigorous engineering from protocol design through all the phases of implementation. We strike a balance between pragmatism (put it on a ship โด), deeply informed protocol design, and strict application of strong engineering principles. All of this happens in an environment defined by curiosity, passion, and a love for open source.\nAs a Peer-to-Peer Networking Engineer at Protocol Labs, you will...\n\n\n* Build the next generation of peer-to-peer software, working on projects like libp2p, IPFS and Filecoin\n\n* Contribute to steering and maintenance of implementations of IPFS, Filecoin, libp2p and similar open source projects\n\n* Create or maintain software libraries and programs depended on by other systems and applications\n\n* Contribute to protocol design and specification efforts\n\n* Participate in the design and implementation of performant and resilient distributed applications\n\n* Develop solutions to hard problems in low-trust distributed systems\n\n* Integrate research results and demonstrations into working, scalable programs and systems\n\n* Work alongside a cross-functional team including engineering, design, community, product, and business\n\n* Engage and educate the community, from users to contributors\n\n* Lead and develop more junior engineers, and provide guidance and review for open source contributors around the world\n\n\n\nYou may be a fit for this role if you have....\n\n\n* BA/BS degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, related field or equivalent practical experience\n\n* Significant experience building applications using Go, Rust, JavaScript, or related languages \n\n* A solid understanding of distributed systems principles and applications\n\n* Experience designing and building distributed and/or p2p software systems and applications.\n\n* A strong technical design ability informed by broad experience across multiple domains/specialties \n\n* Literacy with cryptographic principles and practices\n\n* Experience with 1 or more of the following: Smart Contracts, storage platforms, UNIX file systems, VMs (preferred)\n\n* Deep understanding of network protocols such as TCP, UDP, IP\n\n* Proven track record of independently driving projects in a fast-paced environment\n\n* Excellent communication skills on both technical and non-technical issues\n\n* A keen awareness of teamwork, process, and patterns of successful collaboration\n\n* Excellent written and verbal communication skills\n\n\n\nBonus Points\n\n\n* Experience leading open source projects, and/or guiding their communities \n\n* Security engineering and/or cryptography principles and practices\n\n* Large-scale systems (especially networking, performance, storage, or reliability engineering)\n\n* Experience building with decentralized building blocks such as DHTs, consensus protocols, smart contracts, blockchain, p2p networking, etc.\n\n\n\n\n#LI-NS1\n\n#LI-REMOTE\nWhatโs it like to work at Protocol Labs?\n \nProtocol Labs' mission is to improve humanityโs most important technology, the Internet. We build protocols, systems, and tools to improve how it works. Today, we are focused on how we store, locate, and move information. Our projects include IPFS, Filecoin, libp2p, and more.\n \nAs a distributed team, we hire anywhere in the world, and at various levels of experience (entry, senior, staff). We look for people with unique perspectives and diverse backgrounds.\n \nWe have a great benefits package, including parental leave, contributions to your retirement, competitive pay, and unlimited time off. For U.S.-based employees, we also provide platinum-level health, dental, and vision coverage for you and your family.\n\nIf youโre passionate about the future of computing and a more democratized internet, we want to talk to you.\n\n \n\nGDPR for Job Applicants and Candidates\n\nWhen you apply to a job on this site, the personal data contained in your application will be collected by Protocol Labs, Inc.
