OP Labs builds Optimism, a blockchain network for financial infrastructure, and seeks a Senior Software Engineer to work on the Protocol Team developing core blockchain specifications and clients.
About the company
- OP Labs builds Optimism, an open-source blockchain network that powers the next generation of financial infrastructure.
- Over 65% of Layer 2 activity on Ethereum runs through the OP stack; companies from Sony, Coinbase, Kraken, Uniswap and OKX to early-stage builders use it to launch their own blockchains.
- The Protocol Team designs and operates the core specifications and clients defining the stack.
Responsibilities
- Own features through the full lifecycle: architecture, implementation, and docs through deployment and monitoring, working cross-functionally to create maximum impact
- Build rigorous conformance and adversarial tests to ensure implementation compatibility
- Execute safe protocol upgrades and resolve complex availability/performance issues
- Use AI-assisted engineering tools effectively while maintaining rigorous standards for correctness, security, review, and technical ownership
- Near-term projects: developing kona-node and related Rust-based consensus-client infrastructure as a production-ready alternative to op-node; implementing native account abstraction across the stack; premium protocol capabilities for OP Enterprise
Requirements
- Professional record of shipping production software and maintainable Rust systems
- Deep knowledge of Ethereum (EVM, JSON-RPC, clients) and distributed systems
- Ability to navigate ambiguity and communicate complex design decisions effectively
- Preferred: familiarity with op-node, kona, or Reth implementations; ability to read and navigate production Go code while migrating behavior into Rust
- Bonus: proficiency in Solidity for system-level smart contracts
