San Francisco, California, United States Tenderly Full time

At Tenderly, we're not just shaping the future of blockchain technology – we're defining it. As a full-stack Web3 infrastructure platform, we provide multi-network support and a comprehensive ecosystem that covers every aspect of the blockchain journey, from initial encounters to advanced Node solutions and serverless cloud compute functions.

Our mission is crystal clear: to empower developers worldwide to harness the full potential of blockchain technology for creating innovative products. With our robust Web3 infrastructure platform, we've already enabled tens of thousands of developers to work more efficiently with blockchain. We thrive on tackling complex challenges head-on, crafting solutions that push the boundaries of what's possible in the blockchain world. From developing bespoke Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) implementations to designing proprietary storage layers optimized for our advanced blockchain node solutions, our team is at the forefront of industry innovation.

About the Role

Are you ready to revolutionize blockchain infrastructure? As a Senior Distributed Systems Engineer at Tenderly, you'll be at the forefront of innovation, driving our technology to new heights in the rapidly evolving world of blockchain.

What you'll do:

Innovate and Enhance: Play a key role in advancing our cutting-edge orchestration system, transforming our core tech in Rust, and pushing the boundaries of what's possible.

Specialize: Dive deep into areas that excite you, from enhancing our Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) to fine-tuning our custom storage engine, boosting throughput, and expanding our virtualization ecosystem. Join us in contributing to the fastest-growing, bleeding-edge infra OSS ecosystem of web3 (Reth).

Lead and Own: Take full ownership of your projects, leading them from concept to completion. Be at the frontlines of the Race to a GIGAGAS node, and help build a groundbreaking distributed database and the only distributed, infinitely scalable node.

Optimize: Use your problem-solving skills and creativity to ensure our code runs efficiently. Create reusable components that enhance the scalability and resilience of our solutions. Master the art of balancing scale and performance, knowing that achieving both 100% is impossible.

Tackle Complex Issues: Confront and solve challenges related to distributed systems, performance, and scalability.

Develop strategies to strengthen the stability and efficiency of our storage solutions and other systems.

Work across both extremes of technical complexity, from low-level details like storage layout, networking, and virtual machine instruction sets, mastering the trade-offs to achieve strong consistency and availability, while optimizing performance for massive scale workloads, and more.

Foster Innovation: Dream up new features or enhancements and bring them to life, integrating them into our roadmap and overseeing their journey to production. Collaborate with industry-leading tech experts and help us maintain our #1 position while pushing for even greater success.
