Engineering at Protocol Labs is not just about writing world-class code. We create software systems that tackle significant challenges. In re-decentralizing the web, we work on hundreds of open source projects pursuing everything from research to end-user products. Developer Experience at Protocol Labs is focused on growing and nurturing the community around those projects, in order to advance the broader decentralized web movement. Community Engineers at Protocol Labs engage both with the technical pieces that make up our systems, and the communities that make them run.
This role is focused on either the IPFS Project (ipfs.io), a peer-to-peer network for storing and sharing content-addressed data, or the Filecoin Project (filecoin.io), a decentralized network for storage, with built-in economic incentives and cryptographic proofs to ensure data is stored reliably over time. As a Community Engineer, you will be helping new users, developers, and/or miners become oriented, and clearing hurdles for them to adopt decentralized technologies for their systems. What’s it like to work at Protocol Labs?
Protocol Labs mission is to improve humanity’s most important technology, the Internet. We build protocols, systems, and tools to improve how it works. Today, we are focused on how we store, locate, and move information. Our projects include IPFS, Filecoin, libp2p, and more.
As a distributed team, we hire anywhere in the world, and at various levels of experience (entry, senior, staff). We look for people with unique perspectives and diverse backgrounds.
We have a great benefits package, including parental leave, contributions to your retirement, competitive pay, and unlimited time off. For U.S.-based employees, we also provide platinum-level health, dental, and vision coverage for you and your family.
