About

We’re building Omni: a platform allowing developers to deploy applications across all rollups without fragmenting liquidity. We’re looking for early team members to help us bring this ambitious vision to life.
 
We’re a team who already built a platform that processed over $70M leading to our $18M fundraise from top investors including Pantera, Two Sigma Ventures, Coinbase Ventures alongside angel investors including Stani Kulechov (founder of Aave), Sandeep Nailwal (cofounder of Polygon) and more. In addition to this we have over $4B deposited to secure Omni on mainnet. We are growing rapidly and we need ambitious and experienced team members to join us to help scale Ethereum's future.


About the role

Engineers who join the team in this role will be responsible for designing and implementing foundational components of the Omni stack. This involves working heavily with Golang, Tendermint, Eigenlayer, interoperability components, and off-chain services while also having responsibilities to collaborate with the wider engineering team to improve our overall architecture and code quality.


Responsibilities

    • Develop our core software stack – consensus and execution layers, Eigenlayer integration, and messaging protocol – from the design stage all the way to production ready implementations. Primarily in golang.
    • Build a modular interoperability standard that is highly secure while also being flexible enough to incorporate future innovations in the interoperability space
    • Build a network of validators that leverages restaked $ETH to secure the Omni chain
    • Design, build, test, deploy, and maintain our node software and off-chain coordinating agents to power our distributed network
    • Improve the design of peer’s architecture through thoughtful, professionally communicated feedback.
    • Contribute to open source projects and play a role in building out the crypto ecosystem at large.


Requirements

    • 3-7+ years of experience in a backend software engineering role with Go
    • 2-4+ years of experience developing a blockchain client / node that launched mainnet in production with > $50m at stake
    • Experience architecting, deploying, and maintaining a production system with > $100m and/or 1m users at stake
    • Extensive experience managing the software development life cycle for medium to large projects
    • Experience with AWS, GCP or similar cloud providers
    • Desire to keep up with modern best practices in software development and crypto, and shape our tech stack as we build out new systems and services
    • Location: Must be in the New York (EST) or Europe (CET) time zones.
    • Overlap hours: Available daily from 9 AM to 12 PM EST for team collaboration.


Competencies

    • Autonomous — specifically seeks to take greater ownership and responsibility and thrives in their personal growth by doing so
    • Action oriented — we are looking for people who take action by default, consistently driving forward progress without asking for permission
    • An engineer in both thought and implementation — they must be able to design architecture and see it through to implementation
    • Adaptable — thrives in ambiguity, able to quickly iterate and push forward as the business dynamically expands
    • Highly intelligent — learns quickly and can participate in abstract intellectually engaging conversations
    • Effective communicator — clearly articulates ideas and engages in debates in a productive manner that leads us to making better decisions


Nice to Haves

    • Experience scaling out infrastructure for distributed services
    • Experience building a system with a distributed consensus mechanism
    • Deep understanding of the Ethereum Virtual Machine


Benefits

Our benefits include competitive compensation, token packages for all employees, regular team off-sites around the world and unlimited PTO. In addition, you'll join a team of high-caliber people innovating at the frontier of crypto that work collaboratively to help one another accelerate their personal growth.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
