Requirements and responsibilities


Espresso Systems is the lead developer of the Espresso Sequencer, which supports rollups with decentralization, scale, and interoperability. The Espresso Sequencer supports the decentralization of layer-2 (L2) rollups in the Ethereum ecosystem and beyond. It handles the decentralized sequencing and data availability of rollup transactions, functioning as a middleware between underlying layer-1 (L1) platforms and any zkVM or optimistic VM. Contributors to Espresso comprise a diverse team located around the world. We are passionate about building a better infrastructure for how we transact and interact online. We are builders, designers, researchers, and hackers and have contributed in academia, in open source communities, in policymaking, and beyond. We are backed by over $30mm in funding from leading investors in technology and crypto including Greylock Partners, Electric Capital, Sequoia Capital, and Polychain Capital. As a Cryptography Engineer, you will closely collaborate with fellow engineers and researchers to build cryptographic tools and libraries to bring Espresso's privacy and scalability infrastructure to the Ethereum ecosystem. Examples of work include Jellyfish, a top open-source implementation of the zero-knowledge proof system PLONK, and implementing cryptographic circuits for a private and auditable transaction system on Ethereum. Responsibilities: - Implement, test, and deploy cryptographic protocols and libraries - Work with external auditors to evaluate security and safety of implementations - Take engineering projects from concept and design to production, while working with engineering leaders and the product team to create sound and realistic roadmaps
