Who are we?

IOHK is a technology company focused on Blockchain research and development. We are renowned for our scientific approach to blockchain development, emphasizing peer-reviewed research and formal methods to ensure security, scalability, and sustainability. Our projects include decentralized finance (DeFi), governance, and identity management, aiming to advance the capabilities and adoption of blockchain technology globally.

We invest in the unknown, applying our curiosity and desire for positive change to everything we do. By fueling creativity, innovation, and progress within our teams, our products and services are designed for people to be fearless, to be changemakers.

About Midnight:

IOG's Midnight Tribe is a business technology provider and core contributor to the Midnight Network, a blockchain platform for developing decentralized applications that safeguard personal and commercial data. The Midnight Network is the first blockchain to offer programmable data isolation by leveraging zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs to enable selective disclosure of what information is visible on-chain and is designed to help developers implement necessary business policies, such as meeting regulatory requirements.

What the role involves:

• Design, develop, and maintain high-performance systems using TypeScript and related technologies to power our blockchain platform.
• Collaborate with our development team to ensure seamless integration of systems and features.
• Work closely with our security team to ensure the integrity and security of our platform.
• Write and maintain unit and integration tests to ensure system reliability and correctness.
• Implement and optimize algorithms and data structures to improve system performance.
• Troubleshoot and debug issues in existing systems, identifying and implementing effective solutions.
• Participate in code reviews and contribute to technical discussions to continuously improve the quality of our systems.

Requirements

Who you are:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or related field
• Deep understanding of computer science fundamentals, including algorithms, data structures, and concurrency
• Familiarity with blockchain technology and its core concepts, such as consensus mechanisms, cryptography, and smart contracts
• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently or in a team environment
• Experience in developing and maintaining high-performance, low-latency systems that can handle large-scale transaction processing
• Proficient in working with databases and backend technologies (SQL, NoSQL, RESTful APIs)
• Proficiency in writing and maintaining unit and integration tests to ensure system reliability and correctness
• Familiarity with version control systems, such as Git, and software development best practices, such as Agile methodologies
• Ability to work collaboratively with cross-functional teams, including developers, security experts, and product owners

Are you an IOGer?

Do you find yourself questioning the status quo? Do you tinker with ideas and long to turn those ideas into solutions? Are you able to spark thoughtful debates, bringing out the inquisitiveness in others? Does the promise of continuously growing excite you? Then get ready to reimagine everything you thought wasn’t possible because that’s what it means to be an IOGer - we don’t set limits, we break them.

Benefits:

• New starter package to buy hardware essentials (headphones, monitor, etc)
• Competitive PTO

At IOG, we value diversity and always treat all employees and job applicants based on merit, qualifications, competence, and talent. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
