Responsibilities include developing multi-tenant WASM environments, building developer tooling, and supporting custom data transformations.
Summary Generated by Built In

Edge & Node is at the forefront of web3 innovation. Our mission is to establish The Graph as the unbreakable foundation of open data. Our pioneering subgraphs set the industry standard and solidify The Graph as the premier solution for organizing and accessing blockchain data.

At Edge & Node, we champion a decentralized future based on shared values. Dedicated to decentralizing power and resisting censorship, we aim for a robust, permissionless information era free from central control, thus eliminating the traditional vulnerabilities associated with misplaced trust.

This team is currently in stealth mode and prioritizes developing and maintaining core software components that power The Graph. This top-tier team of Rust Engineers has been building with Rust since its inception and is composed of highly skilled developers. 

For this role, we are looking for a highly motivated and dedicated Rust Engineer who will support the development of state-of-the-art data services for processing blockchain data. If you’re passionate but don’t have experience with the specific technologies or web3, we encourage you to still apply. We value merit and skill and welcome those willing to learn and grow. 

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Developing and integrating WebAssembly (WASM) runtime environments to support user-defined functions and custom data transformations.
  • Applying WASM execution in Rust using Wasmtime to enhance performance. 
  • Staying current with WASM standards such as the Component Model and their implementation status in Wasmtime to adopt the latest features. 
  • Implementing multi-tenant WASM environments, with an understanding of sandboxing and deterministic execution, and support for parallel invocation of a module.
  • Building developer tooling for WASM modules written Rust and JS/TS, including the definition of the interface between the host and WASM, unit testing, debugging and efficient build tooling.

What We Expect

  • Strong proficiency in Rust, particularly with WASM integration and Wasmtime
  • Great understanding of memory and execution isolation in WASM
  • Experience with Rust and JavaScript for tooling and developer experience is a bonus.
  • Adaptability to a dynamic and fully-remote work environment.
  • Rigorous approach to software development that reflects a commitment to excellence. 

Compensation/Culture

The overall market range for roles at Edge & Node is typically $100k - $500k annually. This market range is based on total compensation (vs. only base salary). Edge & Node has a culture that values meritocracy, personal growth, and an ego-free environment.

About The Graph

The Graph is the indexing and query layer of web3. The Graph Network’s self service experience for developers launched in July 2021. Developers build and publish open APIs, called subgraphs, that applications can query using GraphQL. The Graph supports indexing data from multiple different networks including Ethereum, NEAR, Arbitrium, Optimism, Polygon, Avalanche, Celo, Fantom, Moonbeam, IPFS, and PoA with more networks coming soon. To date, tens-of-thousands of subgraphs have been deployed on the hosted service, and now subgraphs can be deployed directly on the network. Over 28,000 developers have built subgraphs for applications such as Uniswap, Synthetix, KnownOrigin, Art Blocks, Balancer, Livepeer, DAOstack, Audius, Decentraland, and many others.

If you are a developer building an application or web3 application, you can use subgraphs for indexing and querying data from blockchains. The Graph allows applications to efficiently and performantly present data in a UI and allows other developers to use your subgraph too! You can deploy a subgraph to the network using the newly launched Subgraph Studio or query existing subgraphs that are in the Graph Explorer. The Graph would love to welcome you to be Indexers, Curators and/or Delegators on The Graph’s mainnet. Join The Graph community by introducing yourself in The Graph Discord for technical discussions, join The Graph’s Telegram chat, and follow The Graph on Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, and Medium! The Graph’s developers and members of the community are always eager to chat with you, and The Graph ecosystem has a growing community of developers who support each other.

The Graph Foundation oversees The Graph Network. The Graph Foundation is overseen by the Technical Council. Edge & Node, StreamingFast, Messari, Semiotic  and The Guild are five of the many organizations within The Graph ecosystem.
