Optimize Sui’s data infrastructure from end-to-end: write performance, storage footprint, read performance, scaling, reliability, and costs.
Build and maintain robust, high-performance RPC services to facilitate reading of blockchain data.
Design and build low-latency, and reliable subscription services
Collaborate with cross-functional teams and external partners to ensure seamless integration of data platform solutions with first-party applications and the ecosystem at large.
What You’ll Have:
5+ years of experience in systems and/or network programming, ideally in Rust, C or C++.
Experience designing and developing systems in one or more of the following areas: Distributed systems, storage/database systems, high performance systems, or networking protocols.
Production experience: operating and managing production systems, proficiency in system monitoring and alerting, with strong focus on reliability.
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
Expertise in performance tuning and optimizing both system architecture and low-level services.
Proven ability to drive complex projects to completion.
