Astria is a shared sequencer network replacing centralized sequencers, allowing many rollups to share a single decentralized network of sequencers that’s simple and permissionless to join. This shared sequencer network provides out-of-the-box censorship resistance, fast block confirmations, and atomic cross-rollup composability – all while retaining each rollup’s sovereignty.
Our team combines traditional experience in building and scaling teams at technology companies like Google, and Meta, with crypto native experience from the most impactful protocols. We are well funded by the leading crypto native funds and investors.
We are remote first, and employees aren’t required to live in any specific timezone. English is our primary language, and employees are expected to be generally available between 10am and 2pm Mountain Time (MT). The ideal candidate for this role takes initiative and ownership over their work, thrives in a fast-paced remote working environment, and is capable of rapidly adapting to evolving needs as required.
About the Role
Astria is seeking Senior Engineers that will help design and develop in various areas of our technology from our core sequencing protocol to developer tooling making it easier for developers to build on crypto, and infrastructure to run it all.
