About Us

Banyan is a startup based in NYC, focused on decentralized storage and generally making the internet less bad. We're massive fans of the local-first software movement. We are very in favor of people having sovereign ownership over their data- we're rolling usable tech out to normal people to support these technologies getting more market share.

Our mission is to put data under the control of the user and push computation and coordination to the edge where possible. We believe this will improve users' experiences and make the internet a better place in many ways.

We're venture backed and have solid runway - about to annouce our series A. We have relationships with a large number of Filecoin miners and are rolling our software out into their datacenters for both Filecoin-based cold storage and custom Banyan hot storage. We feel good about our plans to raise again (soon). For now, we're focused on releasing and selling a decentralized, local-first, and encrypted cloud storage product that could rival Dropbox or Backblaze. We're layering in compute as we see demand. After that's selling... our next steps are pretty ambitious... Think P2P CDNs :).

About You

We are looking for a Senior/Staff Rust Backend Engineer (fully IC role). Our goal is for this hire to be either:

  1. a permanent and high-performing IC right hand to our head of engineering (assuming they're more mid-level), or,
  2. someone VERY senior with domain-specific expertise, who is capable of gearing up to lead a division of engineering when we diversify our product offerings in 2024.
    Someone good enough to hire would be autonomous and independent, a top-performing hard worker excited about our mission. They will have experience with backend eng in Rust, plus understand content-addressing and encryption/authentication basics. Any FAANG background is a huge bonus and so is cloud storage experience.
