Job at RDX Works

$140k-200k

London, England, United Kingdom

Full time

What is the job?

Looking for a fresh new high-tech environment? Then our innovative distributed ledger technology is exactly what you need, as it challenges you with next-level data structures and Byzantine fault tolerance.

You will accelerate your career and constantly improve technically by tackling these issues and being able to utilize the personal £2000/year budget for learning & development.

You get to do all the fun stuff. No turning reams of procedural business logic into code for you! Your days will be filled with hard, interesting problems - thinking through all the ways things can go wrong and coming up with solutions which are both elegant and practical - and then turning these into code. You will meddle with dark powers best left untouched, learn more about decentralized systems than you dreamed was possible, and work with an inspiring team of incredible people. You will make your mother proud, even if you’re never quite able to properly explain to her what it is you built!

What are we looking for?

  • You are a prolific, confident coder, and are persistent in working problems to resolution.
  • You possess strong attention to detail, and are rarely surprised by unconsidered edge cases.
  • You’ve used generic types so much that the angle bracket keys on your keyboard are beginning to wear away.
  • You are unafraid of working in a space where there is little prior art to refer to.
  • You enjoy talking through tough problems with smart people, and are happy to accept ideas and approaches that you didn’t personally come up with.

What do you need?

  • You have solid commercial experience as a Software Developer.
  • You're fluent in Rust or Java, but view language choice as a tool, and relish applying your large technical toolkit to unfamiliar territory.
  • Knowledge of computer science fundamentals and methodologies and how they are applied to work place technical problems
  • You find distributed systems and asynchronous programming models exciting.
  • You sometimes dream about coding and the complexity of computer science.

Who are we?

At RDX Works, we're a team of like-minded thinkers who have long been convinced that we're living in the earliest stages of a global financial revolution. This revolution is being fuelled by decentralized finance (or DeFi for short), which is enabling an assortment of pioneering developers and entrepreneurs to re-invent almost every financial product that is currently traded and invested in traditional markets, without requiring central authorities or siloed infrastructure. DeFi has captured a great deal of attention and investment in the crypto-aware niche, growing assets under management from $1 billion to over $200 billion in a few years. Impressive as its growth has been, its current market size isn't even a rounding error on the over $400 trillion held in traditional finance. We're focused on what it will take to go from billions to trillions.

RDX went back to first principles to come up with the right technical solution—the first layer-one protocol built specifically for mainstream DeFi—and we have already tested out at over 1 million transactions per second. We're keenly aware that the need for an infinitely scalable platform is only one prerequisite among many for mass adoption, and we're also blazing new ground in the areas of purpose-built developer tools, user experiences, and regulatory integration.

We have forged a path deep into the future of what distributed ledger technology is going to look like and we need you to come and be part of the team that is making that happen right now.

Alternatively, if you feel like you don’t match all of the requirements, we would love you to still apply anyway. We understand that confidence gaps and imposter syndrome can get in the way of meeting incredible candidates and we wouldn’t want this to prevent us from meeting you; especially as we are big advocates of helping people learn & grow. This is also another reason we do not advertise salaries, we want to keep it as even a playing field as possible!
