Responsibilities:
  • Design and development new language-level features, such as type inference and first-class functions.
  • Improve the quality of the language’s compiler – including internal abstractions, optimizations and code generation passes.
  • Work with other teams to improve the developer experience and tooling.
Requirements:
  • Strong engineering background – emphasis on compilers, programming languages and related tools.
  • Experience with Blockchain technologies.
  • Proficiency in Rust.
  • Based in San Francisco – 2-3 days on-site per week.
Compensation:
  • Up to $275K base salary + Equity/Tokens
  • Medical Insurance
  • Flexible PTO
  • Regular off-sites (including major industry conferences)
