Mysten Labs believes that decentralized and open protocols are the bedrock of the internet of value. This is why at Mysten Labs, we are creating foundational infrastructure to accelerate the adoption of decentralized protocols based on blockchain technologies.
Our Core Blockchain team is building a scalable, cost-efficient and high-performance storage solution for a byzantine tolerant decentralized platform, Sui.
Working on Sui storage includes thinking about the right protocol for compute <> storage interaction, designing the caching layers, pruning policies, archival solutions, opportunities for efficient indexing, snapshots, cold storage, sharding, economics and more.
We're looking for a technical leader to drive this project and someone who'd be equally interested in:
- Designing novel storage architecture and its interaction with the rest of the system.
- Shaping the technical direction for the team.
- Being a prolific individual contributor generating production quality code.
- Being operationally involved with deployments, debugging and incident troubleshooting.
Our Ideal Candidate Would Have:
- 12+ years of relevant industry experience in a fast paced, high growth tech environment.
- Hands-on experience and expertise in building and operating distributed storage and services.
- Knack for writing clean, readable, testable, maintainable code.
- Ability to understand and decompose large-scale distributed systems.
- Strong collaboration and communication skills with a customer-first mindset, ability to abstract various customer requests into a platform vision and solution.
- Experience in designing architecture that is long-term and evolvable.
