About the role

We're on the hunt for a Senior Software Engineer for a Protocol team. In this role, you will develop the core decentralized infrastructure enabling real-time data flows for AI applications. Your work will drive rapid growth of one of the fastest-growing decentralized AI & LLM networks.

You will join a project that enables developers anywhere to use open and permissionless data for making AI smarter and impactful through RAG, pre-training, and fine tuning of LLMs. You will build performant systems in Go that integrate decentralized technologies using core libraries from IPFS (libp2p) to enable scalable peer-to-peer data transfers.

What you will do

Build technical solutions for Keyko and our partners through solution definition by encapsulating requirements, developing roadmaps, and understanding solution roll out needs.
Architect and implement decentralized peer-to-peer communication layer using IPFS’s peer-to-peer library (libp2p).
Design and implement architecture for distributed work – data scraping and processing – using libp2p and protoactor-go which is based on the Akka actor model.
Develop and integrate proof-of-stake blockchain and content addressable storage (CAS) for the persistence of data and issuance of token emissions on the network using libraries from IPFS.
Develop and scale Go services for ingesting, scraping, processing, and querying data on a decentralized Oracle network.
Follow best practices around asynchronous communication, testing, documentation, code quality, and development workflows.
Collaborate cross-functionally to scope technical requirements into bug free code.
Communicate effectively in a distributed work environment.
Display an understanding of engineering backlogs and requirements gathering that help establish and oversee commitment to technical priorities.
Understand how to incorporate specifications from business and product owners into engineering designs.
Perform development and maintenance / support tasks on solutions.
Identify gaps in solution designs and be able to recommend solutions.
