Backend Web Developer (Remote)

We are the decentralized, self-sovereign, compliant identity layer of web3. We make KYC credentials as movable as tokens, across different chains and ecosystems. We’re in production with a few select partners, and are currently pushing towards v1 just in time for the next mass adoption cycle.

Our core is a permissioned blockchain deployment (based on Kwil), running extensions (written in Golang) that connect to several blockchains (EVMs, NEAR, and more to come). We also develop a TypeScript SDK to make integration as effortless as possible.

Some of our current tech challenges are:

• expanding support across even more chains (more EVMs, Solana, etc)
• making us even easier to understand and integrate, ideally by removing as many clicks and function calls as possible
• deployment of novel encryption and zk tech towards bolstering user privacy and easing development experience

Role and responsibilities

• Build reliable and highly-available backend services for authentication, authorization, blockchain interaction, and indexing
• Write reliable SDKs enabling developers to seamlessly interact with us and provide users with a magical experience
• Contribute to our developer documentation and tooling to make our integration the smoothest developer experience in web3
• Create applications showing off our full potential
• Drive our innovation by staying abreast of new trends, patterns, and tools we can use to keep our applications secure and modern
• Communicate effectively, clearly articulate ideas, and engage productively with us to help us make better decisions
• Clearly and frequently communicate progress and concerns in an actionable manner
• Work in a highly collaborative open source ecosystem, writing and reviewing understandable code we can be proud of
• Help our integrators succeed by helping them with integration architecture and technical support. Our success comes from their success.
