Developer Relations Network Infrastructure

nAbout AztecnnAt Aztec, our goal is to add privacy to Ethereum.nnIn the current public blockchain paradigm, users and entities unknowingly broadcast data in the public, compromising privacy and security to get trustlessness.nnNot only are unencrypted blockchains inherently privacy-exposing, they require significant redundancy to compute and verify the legitimacy of transactions.nnImplementing scalable encryption in a public blockchain paradigm requires cutting-edge math and engineering. Thankfully, our team of scientists and engineers invented Plonk, the industry-standard zkSNARK, and Noir, the universal language of zero knowledge.nnNow, were building a first of its kind Layer 2 with private smart contracts. This requires new cryptographic primitives, a zero-knowledge DSL for writing contracts, a privacy-friendly execution environment, a carefully designed set of circuits that prove the validity of the chain to L1, a decentralized block-building and proving mechanism, and a top-tier user and developer experience. And its now time to bring it to market.nnWeve raised $125 million from industry-leading investors including a16z crypto, Paradigm, Variant, Consensys, and a_capital, and were growing quickly.nThe Role:nnAs someone that will help maintain a health network of infrastructure providers, you will be an integral part of the long-term success of the Aztec network. You will have a diverse range of responsibilities and will engage with some of the fastest growing start-ups in the crypto space (e.g. prover networks) as well as a diverse set of infrastructure providers, ranging from home stakers to professional, custodial staking operations.
