Employer Active
At Matter Labs, we believe freedom drives progress and prosperity. We don’t see ourselves as a company, but as a team aligned around a single mission: to advance personal freedom for all (see ZK Credo ).
To achieve this goal, we’re building zkSync — a credibly neutral, fully open source technology stack and network on top of Ethereum, which is owned and governed by its community. We use advanced cryptography called zero-knowledge proofs to scale Ethereum infinitely without compromising on security or decentralization. With a world-class team, a community of over 1M supporters across Twitter + Discord , and hundreds of millions $ in funding , we have abundant resources to accomplish the mission.
The Role
We are seeking accomplished Research Engineers with a strong background in computer science to join our growing Research Team. As a Research Engineer, you will be responsible for working on various aspects of the complex system that Matter Labs is building, including security, performance, networking, hardware, programming languages, program correctness, and various aspects of applied cryptography related to zero-knowledge proofs.
You will be expected to have a strong interest in one of the areas listed above, as well as connections to both the academic community and industrial practice. While a PhD is preferred, it is not required.
