About the Role
We’re building a next-generation blockchain tailored specifically for AI agents—combining zkVM-based verifiable execution with a high-performance node network and smart-contract layer. You’ll drive protocol design, Rust-centric infrastructure development, and backend engineering optimizations to support multi-agent AI architectures at scale.
What You’ll Do
- Protocol & zkVM Development
- Design and implement core blockchain protocols with zkVM integration for verifiable AI agent execution.
- Define smart-contract standards and on-chain agent interfaces (analogous to EVM ABIs).
- Node & Network Infrastructure
- Build and optimize high-throughput, low-latency node software in Rust.
- Architect P2P networking, consensus mechanisms, and state synchronization tailored for AI workloads.
- Smart Contract & Agent Integration
- Develop and audit smart contracts for agent registration, staking, and on-chain governance.
- Integrate multi-agent orchestration frameworks (e.g., CrewAI, MCP) into the blockchain runtime.
- Backend & Tooling
- Create backend services and APIs (REST/GraphQL) to interact with nodes and agents.
- Implement monitoring, observability, and analytics pipelines to track chain and agent performance.
- Collaboration & Innovation
- Partner with AI engineers to optimize gas models, transaction batching, and resource metering for agentic use cases.
- Research emerging Web3 and zero-knowledge technologies to keep our stack cutting-edge.
