Mir Protocol | San Francisco, CA | Remote OK | https://mirprotocol.org/ We're an early stage startup building a new blockchain protocol. Each state transition in this protocol is accompanied by a cryptographic proof, so users can verify blockchain state without downloading and re-executing transactions. We see this as the key to scaling blockchains and making them viable for broad adoption. A lot of our work will involve programming in R1CS (similar to arithmetic circuits), which presents unique challenges. We're looking for engineers with a strong math and/or cryptography background. Rust experience would also be a plus. Contact: daniel@mirprotocol.org
