About the job
Overview:
ABOUT EIGEN LABS
Eigen Labs is more than just a leading name in the blockchain space. We’re the driving force behind EigenLayer, a game-changing solution that revolutionizes crypto-economic security. Imagine a world where blockchain projects break free from the shackles of the scaling trilemma and capital limitations.
We’re building a platform to deliver security to novel distributed applications. In today's blockchain ecosystem, each service is typically secured by its own tokenized trust-network. With EigenLayer, services can build upon the established security of the Ethereum trust network, unlocking untold scalability while maintaining security and decentralization.
THE ROLE
EigenPods are smart contracts managed by users, designed to facilitate the monitoring and managing of balance and withdrawal statuses on EigenLayer. As a Principal Software Engineer you will spearhead the end-to-end ownership of EigenPOD offchain components, drive the success of EigenLayer's native restaking offerings and collaborate with our protocol team to ensure seamless integration of offchain systems with EigenLayer.
Native Restaking is now more than half of our TVL on mainnet and future growth provides exciting opportunities to drive complex mission critical projects. If you’re looking to collaborate with a talented team of engineers, driving innovation and inventing groundbreaking technologies, we look forward to hearing from you!
