At Phylax Systems, we are driven by a singular mission to secure the crypto ecosystem so that it can truly thrive. Born from the aftermath of the Nomad hack, our company was established to address the critical vulnerabilities that have caused billions of dollars in losses and shaken industry confidence. We have successfully raised over $4.5 million from prominent investors like Nascent, Figment Capital, and RobotVC to build the Credible Layer. This initiative combines on-chain protocols with off-chain infrastructure to enforce security rules for every transaction. We are a team deeply committed to making crypto trustworthy for both everyday users and large institutions through proactive, impenetrable security.
About the Role
We are looking for a Senior Rust Engineer to join us in a full-time capacity. In this position, you will work on the core infrastructure that protects the blockchain space. You will be responsible for developing features that extend the EVM, allowing for security checks after every state transition. This is an opportunity to work on high-impact, open-source infrastructure while solving complex technical challenges in a fast-paced environment.
Key Responsibilities
