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.
