Our Mission
We believe private computation is the future. We're bringing private computation to all by making advanced cryptography (i.e. fully homomorphic encryption) easy to use.
What you'll accomplish your 1st year here
You'll help define the engineering vision of our team
You'll contribute to the design and building of the core infrastructure of a new cryptographic system (such as working on a compiler and zero-knowledge proof library) 🛠
You'll become familiar with the latest advances in cryptography (and start contributing yourself!)
You'll have opportunities to present your work at conferences 👏
You...
Believe everyone has the right to privacy 🔒
Think technology should be frictionless (documentation is important to you!)
Are comfortable with ambiguity and taking on a leadership role in engineering 👩💻
Have significant experience as a backend engineer and/or proficiency in a systems programming language (such as C or Rust)
Have experience building products in tradfi (specifically with trading) or in DeFi
May be a bit rusty in linear algebra and discrete math but enjoyed these subjects when you studied them
Are excited to get your hands dirty learning new math and cryptography (with help of course!) ✍️
Look forward to collaborating with others
Are excited to develop and mentor other engineers 🤝
We offer...
A highly flexible, remote-first working environment 🌎
Competitive compensation + significant equity 🤑
Unlimited PTO (we encourage you to take off at least 3 weeks/year)

About Us
We're currently a team of 5.
We like exploring new parks (one of us has a golden retriever), grabbing a coffee to read with a good book (preferably non-fiction), playing tennis, and volunteering in our free time!
