Lurk Lab @ Protocol Labs | Multiple Positions | REMOTE | Full-time

Lurk Lab is building Lurk (https://github.com/lurk-lang), a Turing-complete programming language for recursive zk-SNARKs. Lurk implements a minimal Lisp whose program executions can be proved in zero-knowledge, yielding succinct proofs that are concretely small and fast to verify. Lurk uses a Rust implementation (https://github.com/lurk-lang/lurk-rs) for expression evaluation, proving, and verification, with Nova (https://github.com/microsoft/Nova/) as its proving backend. Because Lurk is Turing-complete, it can be used to make and prove arbitrary computational claims (within resource limits).

We are looking for strong cryptography engineers, researchers, functional programming language specialists, applications developers, and start-up leaders/web3 entrepreneurs who want to build next-generation SNARK technology.

Ideal candidates will be knowledgeable about the state of the art in zero-knowledge proofs and (if looking for an engineering position) strong in Rust.

We are specifically hiring for:

- Rust Cryptography Engineers

- zk-SNARK Researchers and Engineers

- Functional Programming Language Specialists

- Software Engineers for Lurk Applications

- Documentation Engineers

- A Business Lead and/or COO

If you are interested in any of these roles, email [email protected] with CV and a brief cover letter.

Protocol Labs is hiring a REMOTE Research Engineer for our new Resilient Networks Lab (https://research.protocol.ai/research/groups/resnetlab/).

Job description can be found here: https://jobs.lever.co/protocol/f39f7fe0-1805-40d2-9453-90fd2...

ResNetLab supports the research efforts of two of Protocol Labs' flagship projects: IPFS and libp2p. Its mission is to build resilient distributed systems, by creating and operating a platform where researchers can collaborate openly and asynchronously on deep technical work.
