Senior Engineer

Summary

Join Nomos, a Logos technology building the infrastructure for network states, as a Senior Engineer. You will implement and optimize decentralized P2P protocols for network infrastructure, build production-level P2P network components, and develop proof-of-concepts for peer-to-peer communication layers. The role requires expertise in Rust and P2P engineering, including experience with distributed systems and consensus mechanisms. You will analyze and optimize real-world P2P network performance and maintain the Rust-based P2P networking stack. Strong technical communication skills are essential. Compensation is offered in fiat or crypto.

Requirements

• Solid experience in Rust (non-negotiable!)
• Proven P2P engineering experience: Implementation of peer discovery, data propagation, or network topologies; & building decentralised systems in Byzantine environments
• Ability to operationalise P2P research into production code
• Proven Distributed Systems experience: Strong knowledge of consensus mechanisms, distributed storage, or gossip protocols; & performance tuning of large-scale node networks
• Computer Science/Math fundamentals (cryptography, algorithms, networking)
• Strong technical communication (code documentation, system diagrams)
• Strong interest in privacy-preserving, censorship-resistant and open protocols

Responsibilities

• Implement and optimise decentralised P2P protocols for network infrastructure
• Build production-level P2P network components based on technical specifications
• Develop proof-of-concepts for peer-to-peer communication layers
• Engineer resilient distributed systems for Byzantine fault-tolerant environments
• Analyse and optimise real-world P2P network performance (latency, throughput, node scalability)
• Maintain and enhance Rust-based P2P networking stack

Preferred Qualifications

Proven experience with: DHTs, gossip protocols, BFT consensus, or P2P network resilience techniques

Benefits

We are happy to pay in any mix of fiat/crypto
