About the role

  • Staff Engineer at Ava Labs maintaining and advancing the EVM for Avalanche blockchain. Working on innovative solutions and contributing to multiple projects involving blockchain technology.

Responsibilities

  • Maintain and advance Avalanche’s EVM-compatible chains.
  • Design and implement paradigm-shifting extensions on top of vanilla EVMs, without breaking ecosystem compatibility.
  • Here are some specific examples of projects you will contribute to:
  • libevm (repo): the EVM as a library; a backwards-compatible fork of geth with injectable configuration directives to minimize merge conflicts.
  • Streaming Asynchronous Execution (spec / talk / repo): decoupled consensus and execution, allowing for always-on, concurrent execution without forced dormancy.

Requirements

  • Highly proficient in Golang; the language and its primitives are second-nature to you, and you are comfortable mentoring others.
  • Independent Solidity experience; you are comfortable deploying a smart contract to production.
  • Deep knowledge of the life of an EVM transaction, from wallet to opcode.
  • Demonstrable experience with geth internals are a bonus.
