We are looking for senior engineering talent to help us maintain this high technical bar, while building innovative solutions to ensure the XRPL can power the growing needs of the global digital economy.

  • You are hands on and know what it takes to build highly available, scalable, distributed systems and you cherish every opportunity to share your experience and knowledge with the engineering community.
  • You have an operator mindset. You understand the value of delivering incremental value and engineering fundamentals.
  • Your strength lies in the ability to bring clarity to ambiguous situations and the ability to influence people at all levels and across organizations come natural to you.
  • You keep an eye on the industry evolution in the blockchain and crypto world and ensure the XRPL is poised to meet the needs of blockchain developers.
  • You love mentoring and providing guidance and assistance in the career development of others.

WHAT YOU’LL BRING:

  • At least 12+ years’ experience in designing and developing complex distributed systems with at least 5+ years of experience contributing to large scale projects as an architect or as a key individual contributor.
  • Expert-level experience in C++ is required. 
  • Experience developing and evolving distributed systems (e.g., consensus algorithms, networking, fault tolerance, observability)
  • Experience with blockchain technology and protocols, and traditional financial systems and concepts.
  • Experience crafting or contributing to the multi-year engineering roadmap of open source software.
  • Experience in mentoring and growing engineers at all levels, and setting up best practices and processes for them and the company to succeed.
  • Have prior experience leading software evaluation and decision making processes. 
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills and experience presenting to broad audiences and to senior leadership.
