Senior Rust Engineer for Solana

About Autonomy:

Autonomy Network is a protocol for decentralized automation. Developers use Autonomy to automate actions and create better features for dApps. It allows anyone to make any arbitrary transaction and have it executed under some arbitrary condition in the future, even while the user is offline. For example, DEXes like Uniswap can add limit orders, stop losses, and impermanent loss protection. Borrowers can borrow on platforms like Compound and automatically close their position before it gets liquidated, saving the fees which can be as high as 12%. Creators can launch autonomous NFTs that transfer themselves in and out of wallets, without human input or running any servers. Autonomy is infrastructure, similar to ChainLink (but for automation, not oracles), that is starting to disrupt DeFi and the NFT space. We're already live on ETH/BSC/MATIC/AVAX, about to launch on Solana and other non-EVM chains, and have live integrations at AutoSwap, SokuSwap, ApeSwap, and other much bigger DEXes and lending platforms that aren't public yet. Based in Switzerland, but we have a fully distributed team. Work directly with the founding team and enjoy significant, ahem, autonomy ;) Own your work and have significant independence. Take part in strategic decisions of the project. Build the future of web3!

Job description:

Autonomy needs a Shadowy Super Coder to lead the Solana smart contract work! Since Autonomy itself is already live on EVM chains, we need to convert the Solidity code to Rust. After that, the remaining work is in adoption, so we're helping dapps integrate us. In general, automating something with Autonomy means creating a wrapper contract that adds conditions to some target system - we'll need you to help build these contracts to help support new use cases on Autonomy! This means that you'll have an incredible variety of work. For example, these are just some of the things you'll help build/integrate immediately after joining:

• Limits, stops, and impermanent loss protection on Raydium
• Same on Orca
• Recurring salary payments for DAOs
• Gaming platforms to add autonomous NFTs that actually do stuff rather than be expensive JPEGs! So if you want to touch all areas of crypto, this is the place!

Requirements:

• have previous experience in the development of a dapp on Solana
• previous experience with Rust or AssemblyScript.
• understanding of Solidity smart contracts.
• written the smart contracts for at least 1 DeFi dapp in Rust.
• fluency in English is a must.
• solid understanding of DeFi (trading, lending etc)

Bonus:

• (strong bonus) worked on/with dapps similar to Uniswap
• have frontend experience with web3 libraries.
• understanding of the DeFi landscape.

What we can offer:

• tokens! We'll do our token launch within a couple of months, so you'll have the chance to have a share of the founding team's tokens
• help build out a cutting edge technology that will change the face of the blockchain industry
• work closely with top teams in the space that we're partnering with on collaborations
• working fully remotely, or be in an upcoming office (likely Lisbon)
• travel benefits to conferences, health benefits, the usual tech startup stuff
• a fun environment with some solid banter ;)
