Looking to join a world-class blockchain development team? Ava Labs makes it simple to deploy high-performance solutions for Web3, led by innovations on Avalanche. The company was founded by Cornell computer scientists, who partnered with Wall Street veterans and early Web3 leaders to execute a promising vision for redefining the way people build permissionless networks. Ava Labs is redefining the way people create value with Web3. Join us as we empower people to easily and freely digitize all the world’s assets on one open, programmable blockchain platform.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
- Work on our state-of-the-art compaction-less database, Firewood.
- Be a primary contributor to our blockchain-optimized storage engine that can be used to launch high-performance L1s on Avalanche
- Assist the team in readying Firewood (Alpha testing) for production
WHAT MAKES YOU A GOOD FIT
- You believe in a future where blockchain technologies make the world a more fair and free place for everyone.
- You have the desire to work on open-source code and engage with the community—you wish to work together with other talented contributors instead of working alone.
- You are a coder—you implement demos and proofs-of-concept before writing multi-page technical documents.
- You create and find projects that provide value—you don’t need to wait for someone to tell you what to research or work on. We hire awesome engineers to tell us what we should build, not the other way around.
- You have an obsession with code quality and performance—you ship code when it is ready, not as soon as it passes unit tests.
WHAT YOU WILL BRING
- Demonstrated capability in the software storage area (open source code or published work is a bonus)
- Experience working on embedded database systems, especially those optimized for key storage
- Knowledge of data serialization formats for efficient storage
- Expert blockchain fundamentals and understanding of state synchronizations
- Deep understanding of trie structures and their operations
- Rust AND Golang, C++, or C
Salary Range: $190,400 to $238,000
