Software Engineer (Integrations)

Parity, a leading blockchain infrastructure company founded by Ethereum co-founder Dr. Gavin Wood, is seeking a Software Engineer for their Front and Integrations Team. This role focuses on building and maintaining tools and applications in TypeScript and Rust that enhance developer interaction with Substrate-based blockchains like Polkadot. You'll work on significant projects including EVM compatibility, substrate-connect-wallet, substrate-api-sidecar, polkadot-js, and substrate-telemetry.

The position offers a unique opportunity to work at the forefront of Web3 technology, contributing to groundbreaking projects in a remote-first environment. You'll be part of a distributed team of approximately 10 engineers, primarily based in Europe, working on both TypeScript and Rust projects. The role requires a strong foundation in TypeScript, experience with open-source projects, and an interest in blockchain technology and the Rust programming language.

Parity offers an attractive compensation package, including tokens where legally possible, and comprehensive benefits for employees in Germany, Portugal, Switzerland, and the UK. The company promotes a "future of work" environment that's remote-first and self-initiating with flexible hours. You'll have access to industry experts, opportunities for professional growth, and the chance to make a significant impact in the Web3 space.

The ideal candidate should be able to work autonomously, possess excellent communication skills, and have a genuine interest in blockchain technology, particularly Substrate/Polkadot. Experience with EVM and smart contracts is valuable, as is a strong understanding of networking fundamentals. This role presents an excellent opportunity to be part of a company that's shaping the future of decentralized web technologies.
