Trabajos remotos de criptografía - Remoto

Research Cryptographer & Mathematician Full-time/Company: Heliax Heliax is a remote-first company that researches, develops, deploys, and maintains open-source protocols and mechanisms to serve everyday needs. The team builds vertically integrated open-source products and networks, including the Anoma intent-centric architecture and Namada, a privacy-focused proof-of-stake L1. Applicants must be based in Europe (including the UK) and be willing to travel to Berlin for initial onboarding. Responsibilities: - Design new cryptographic protocols to meet specified information-flow, security, and performance goals. - Evaluate and analyze existing zkSNARK/zkSTARK and related proof systems for security, expressivity, and performance. - Update, reimplement, and combine cryptographic protocols for proofs-of-concept and production use-cases. - Produce comprehensive technical specifications and collaborate with engineers on implementations. - Implement, review, and test cryptographic operations and protocols, primarily in Rust. - Contribute to open-source cryptography projects and tooling. Requirements: - Strong mathematical and/or cryptographic background (e.g. complexity theory, abstract algebra, protocol design). - Proven experience in constructive protocol design and analysis of distributed cryptographic protocols (research paper, project, or detailed system). - Experience implementing cryptographic protocols, preferably in Rust. Nice to have: - Published papers in mathematics, theoretical CS, or cryptography. - Experience with distributed systems and operating-systems architecture/design. - Experience with Zerocash/Zexe/VeriZexe and related architectures. - Academic qualifications in cryptography or mathematics. Stack: Rust, zkSNARKs, zkSTARKs, Halo2, ProtoStar, Risc0 zkVM, Arkworks, elliptic curves, threshold cryptography Benefits: - Remote-first company with a small, cross-disciplinary team and freedom in task prioritization. - Relocation assistance to Germany (including visa help) for candidates willing to relocate. - Opportunity to work on publishable research and open-source projects. 📩 Apply
