Senior Rust Engineer (Remote)

At 3Box Labs we are on a mission to usher in a new era for the web, where data is secure, interactions are trustworthy, and relationships are the basis of connection. We're enabling online experiences that are delightful and integrated while also bolstering privacy and freeing innovation. Our first product, Ceramic, is the building block for composable data on the web and is powering thousands of the world's most ambitious applications.

We're backed by an incredible community and the best investors in the space (USV, Placeholder, Variant, Multicoin) who have deep conviction in our mission.  We are a lean, voraciously curious team from across the globe, with 5 years of expert remote work experience and frequent (and awesome) team retreats to spend time together. We have founded tech startups, written books, won product awards, authored patents, created Ethereum standards, and advised F100 CEOs.

Come help us tackle novel challenges and reinvent how data is managed online. Every one of our roles is remote first (retreat often!). We are committed to building a diverse and inclusive team because we cannot succeed in our mission without it. People that identify with groups traditionally underrepresented in tech are particularly encouraged to apply. 

As a Senior Rust Engineer at 3Box Labs you will lead the implementation of the Ceramic protocol in Rust. You will help the team get more familiar with the Rust language as you learn and work on problems related to distributed consensus, peer-to-peer networking, cryptography, object-capabilities, and more. This position reports to Alex, Lead Protocol Engineer. This is new headcount as we grow our team’s tech capacity and expand into a rust codebase for better scalability and performance. 

Salary range: $115-$210K depending on seniority and location. We understand everyone's risk preferences and life situation is different so we can offer flexibility here. Our goal is to extend a fair and exciting offer, while preserving fairness across the team.

Care: We work with passionate teammates committed to a shared purpose and support each other to work better and live well.

Act with intention: We are thoughtful doers who put as much into why and how we do something as what we do.

Go further, together: Our mission is too big for us alone. We cultivate trust, ask for help, and build momentum together.

Drive incredible impact: We aim for massive impact and we deliver.
