Software Engineer, Backend

Conduit - The Onchain Compute CompanyBlockchains are not only decentralized ledgers but raw sources of computing power. Like any source of raw power, it must be harnessed and refined for use. Vitalik and the Ethereum team laid out a plan for this refining process back in 2020. Rollups make the Ethereum blockchain more accessible in theory, but in practice building and operating your own chain is exceedingly complicated. To open up development in crypto and the next generation of applications, accessing onchain compute needs to be as easy and reliable as accessing compute in the cloud. We're making that possible at Conduit.Conduit is the center for onchain compute. We deploy and operate modular rollups for apps and ecosystems of every size so they can access all the blockspace and throughput they need. With Conduit Deploy, teams can launch their own chain in a few clicks and trust it's operated, maintained, and updated 24/7, 365 by Conduit's RollOps team. Then we journey alongside our customers as they and crypto technology grow, establishing new standards together.We get that building onchain can still feel daunting. So we put experienced Web 2 infrastructure engineers alongside some of the earliest crypto contributors to bring cloud stability to crypto possibility. That's how we can offer 99.999% uptime as well as day-one compatibility with the latest upgrades like Dencun. As projects scale, our RollOps team ensures their chains scale with them - all the while powered by optimal stack configurations customized to their needs.But all this reliability means nothing if people can't access it. That's why we brought product design and automation to crypto infrastructure. Conduit Deploy allows anyone from hackathon projects and startups to enterprise companies to start building on their own dedicated chain with no rollup expertise or code required. Here they can access Conduit-vetted frameworks, integrations, and scaling solutions all in one place. Even industry-leading teams with highly capable engineers like Zora, Aevo, and Mode entrust us to operate their rollups so that they can avoid spending time and money on undifferentiated development and instead focus on inventing new onchain applications.History has shown that most advanced tech pulls back and allows people's experiences to take the lead. It's time for crypto to advance. For infrastructure to release its grip on applications and for onchain compute to be immediately accessible on-demand. There's been so much talk about what crypto will do for society. With Conduit, now the tech can finally step aside so app builders can build.About the RoleIn this role you'll be working closely with the CEO to architect, maintain, and scale backend systems at Conduit. You'll work across the stack on UI/UX, analytics, billing, CLIs, and anything else that needs to get built.As a Backend Engineer at Conduit, you will:• Architect, build, and deploy the back-end systems, services, and APIs that power our infrastructure products.• Implement product features like billing, metrics, permissioning, and more.• Contribute to defining Conduit's product strategy and roadmap with the rest of the teamWe think you'll find this work really exciting if you:• Have experience with web app technologies (http servers, databases, typescript, React, etc.).• Like building general frameworks and infrastructure that could be used for many different features.• Are excited about helping build robust infrastructure that enables crypto to scale.Our tech stackWe use React, javascript/typescript, Go,postgres, and rust. While we value experience with these technologies, we are primarily looking for engineers with strong technical skills and the ability to quickly pick up new tools and frameworks.Conduit does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, non-disqualifying physical or mental disability, national origin, veteran status or any other basis covered by appropriate law.
