Senior Software Engineer - Crytography

Douro Labs is at the forefront of Web3 development. We help decentralize data services and enhance access to real-time, once-exclusive market data for all blockchain participants by contributing to some of the most important projects in the space, such as the Pyth Network, where we are one of the initial contributors. Pyth Network is an Oracle protocol that connects the owners of market data to applications on multiple blockchains. Pyth's market data is contributed by over 100 first-party publishers, including some of the biggest exchanges and market-making firms in the world. Over 350 protocols on 55+ blockchains trust Pyth to secure their applications.

Douro Labs is looking for a talented Engineer who has exceptional knowledge in the area of Applied Cryptography, someone who understands cryptographic algorithms and has implemented them in software previously, as they are building a blockchain and want to implement a threshold signing system for the validators so that other chains can easily validate the state of this chain. The ideal candidate will be someone who has built and shipped a substantial product that has cryptography as a key piece.
