About Gossamer/Polkadot

As a protocol engineer for Gossamer, you will join a small team and develop and maintain the Go implementation of the Polkadot blockchain protocol, often referred to as a host or a client. You will be tasked with implementing new features, occasionally from a technical specification or a reference implementation; maintaining existing features; ensuring the implementation stays compatible with the current and historical specifications of the protocol, and updating the code when upgrades are made to the network.

Who we need

As a protocol engineer, you have the desire to implement and deploy novel protocols that have never been implemented before in that language, you have a passion for open-source software and understanding that you will be maintaining code that will be widely used on a decentralized network, you are able to clearly communicate and document your thoughts, and you have the desire to contribute to the space. The position is full-time and remote-friendly.

Responsibilities
  • Read and understand a protocol specification and be able to break it into issues and turn it into Go code
  • Design and implement new features for the Polkadot host
  • Refactor and improve existing features in the Polkadot host
  • Ensure the client stays compatible with the other host implementations
  • Maintain up-to-date technical documentation
  • Collaborate with and assist team members with their issues
  • Collaborate with other protocol implementation teams to share knowledge on the protocol, whether it be high-level protocol details or technical details that are common to every client
  • Communicate effectively with the team and document your code and the client as a whole
Required skills and experience
  • Proficiency in Go
    • 5+ years of Go programming language, paradigms, constructs, and idioms
    • 8+ years of professional software back-end development experience
  • Knowledge of system design in Go
  • Effective usage of Go debugging tools
  • Familiarity with Rust and high conviction to learn
  • Understanding of distributed systems, consensus algorithms, networking models, and broadcast algorithms
  • 3+ years of experience working with blockchain or highly distributed systems
  • Be able to proactively dive into the novel territory and share knowledge on what you've learned
  • Basic understanding of cryptography and common applications
  • Ability to write clean and effective documentation and comments
  • Experience working with open-source software projects
    • Familiarity with open-source software principles
Nice to have
  • Experience with Rust, as the Polkadot reference implementation (Substrate) is written in Rust
  • Experience with blockchain protocols, whether it be the usage of a blockchain API, knowledge of how a blockchain operates, or any other experience
  • Experience with distributed systems, peer-to-peer systems, network programming, or cryptography
  • Experience writing software from a technical specification or a reference implementation
  • Experience maintaining a large codebase with many components and keeping it well-designed, future-proofed, and modular
  • Experience with documenting a large codebase, both for internal and user-facing components
  • Experience with RPC, WebSockets, or GraphQL
