Role

Who you are

  • At least 4+ years of professional software development experience (Software Engineers, Senior Software Engineers, and Technical Leads are encouraged to apply)
  • Experience in Golang or any other strongly-typed programming language preferred
  • B.S. or higher in computer science, software engineering, or related technical field preferred

  • Interest in blockchain and other Web 3.0 technologies
  • Comfort and/or experience working as a remote employee as a part of a distributed team
  • Ability to write and communicate effectively
  • Passionate about solving user problems

What the job involves

  • As a Fullstack Engineer working at Chainlink Labs, you’ll collaborate with an experienced technical team of other senior engineers, distributed systems computing experts, and security experts, who are all committed to building world-changing decentralized infrastructure
  • You’ll develop and build highly scalable, secure, and reliable software that will change the way smart contracts function at a fundamental level
  • You’ll have the opportunity to learn and master the latest research concerning distributed systems, cryptography, blockchains, game theory, consensus algorithms, and decentralized applications
  • You will be given a high level of autonomy/ownership over your projects, the opportunity to expand your scope of knowledge, and the chance to help build the decentralized infrastructure of the future!
  • Designing and building a new service platform for users to connect to a variety of Chainlink products, leveraging Chainlink’s decentralized platform
  • Support products which are targeted towards web3 developers looking to leverage Chainlink technology within their projects
  • Maximizing feature set availability and enhancing end-to-end user experience to minimize user friction and drive growth
  • Thinking creatively about attack vectors, possible failures, and disaster scenarios, modeling them in reproducible test environments, and developing fixes
  • Modeling and developing recovery behaviors within our core node software
  • Implementing resilient distributed systems to achieve high reliability in a variety of blockchain environments
  • Partner with Product development teams to help shape the direction of new product initiatives

Our take

Smart contracts are slated to be the future of transparent, fair, and efficient digital dealings across industries as diverse as lending, real estate, and international trade. Historically, the application of smart contracts was limited to on-chain data, but oracle mechanisms like Chainlink can be used to import off-chain data (like those required for the broader application of smart contracts) onto the chain.

Chainlink Labs' work has marked a significant step forward in the progress of blockchain technologies - and has proven a remarkable success story for the company. It is responsible for the largest global decentralized oracle network in the world, used by hundreds of projects spanning online gaming and cryptocurrency. It has also received its fair share of critique - but blockchain technology at large remains a work in progress, and Chainlink has been quick to develop solutions.

All in all, the benefits of Chainlink’s work look set to become even more pronounced, as smart contracts become more applied across the globe. In late 2022, the company launched the staking of its native token LINK, to increase the security of the protocol and enable the Chainlink system to grow.
