Codex is looking for a protocol engineer to join our team of talented engineers and researchers in shaping the future of decentralized storage. Our product leverages cutting-edge Zero Knowledge and erasures coding techniques with peer-to-peer and blockchain technologies to provide a decentralized, secure, and efficient solution while providing novel data durability guarantees.

For this role, you will work within the p2p client team and collaborate with our researchers and engineers to develop, test, and maintain our protocols and our p2p client. This role sits at the heart of our efforts: networking protocols are one of main tenets upon which our system is built, and making sure they are scalable, secure, and efficient while meeting the needs of our product will be your main concern.

Responsibilities:

• Understanding our existing peer-to-peer protocols for overlay maintenance and data transfer (e.g. DHT and our block exchange protocols) using both documentation and code;
• Helping us identify and fix correctness, performance, and security bugs, which includes developing new and custom tooling when required;
• Helping us sha...
