Lead Security Engineer

• Architect and implement high-performance threshold signature schemes, specifically DKLS23 or similar, for ECDSA key generation and signing
• Design and build services inside Trusted Execution Environments, targeting AMD SEV-SNP and Intel TDX via Confidential Containers
• Implement the RATS architecture (RFC 9334) to ensure key shares are released only after hardware and software integrity is proven to the Key Broker Service
• Design Cold Ceremony workflows integrating offline hardware tokens as offline Key Encryption Keys for disaster recovery and deep storage
• Write and optimize memory-safe Rust/Go code operating on key material exclusively within encrypted memory regions
• Design mechanisms that cryptographically bind business logic approvals, such as WebAuthn assertions, directly to MPC signing sessions
• Lead architectural decisions for the custody engine and define use of MPC and Confidential Computing
• Contribute to a next-generation Digital Asset Platform for institutional finance

Requirements

• 5+ years of Specialty Software Engineering experience, or equivalent demonstrated through work experience, training, military experience, or education
• 3+ years of experience in backend or systems programming
• Expert-level proficiency in Go (Golang)
• 6+ months of experience with Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC)
• 1+ year of experience with BFT consensus algorithms, P2P networking, and state replication
• Reliable distributed systems experience
• Deep experience with Cosmos SDK and CometBFT (desired)
• Experience with Pedersen Commitments (desired)
• Experience with Zero-Knowledge Proofs, specifically Bulletproofs or Sigma protocols (desired)
• Ability to read academic whitepapers/preprints and translate mathematical specifications into functioning code (desired)
