Fuel Labs is building the fastest modular execution layer in the world.


You will be working at the bleeding edge of blockchain scalability R&D. The upcoming release of the Fuel Network will feature a brand new virtual machine, the FuelVM.

The compiler and toolchain are available here.


Responsibilities:



  • Design and specify Sway language features

  • Write a compiler in Rust targeting the FuelVM

  • Integrate the compiler with additional tooling: package manager, debugger, language server, IDE plugin, etc.


Required Experience



  • Experience with Rust, C++, or Golang (or other systems language)

  • Strong familiarity with compilers and programming languages

  • Masters degree in computer science


Bonus



  • Familiarity with Rust specifically

  • Familiarity with blockchain execution environments

  • Solidity/smart contract development

  • Used open-source development tools

  • Background in philosophy
