Job description
A Series A AI Start Up Hiring for a Full Stack Guru - Think decentralized, think blockchain, think bigger!

An AI startup that’s transforming the machine learning space by creating a decentralized compute network for training models. They’re revolutionizing AI infrastructure by using underutilized GPUs to offer scalable, cost-effective compute resources—disrupting the need for traditional cloud providers like AWS.

About the Role:
Full Stack Engineer (Front-End Focus). In this role, you’ll be responsible for delivering end-to-end, consumer-facing applications, with a strong focus on creating intuitive front-end experiences using JavaScript, Typescript, HTML, and CSS. You’ll also have the opportunity to integrate with backend services using Node.js, Golang or Python, contributing to both front-end and back-end aspects of their decentralized platform.

Why This is Unique:
• Autonomy & Ownership: You'll work in a flat, collaborative structure with no middle management, giving you full control over your projects from start to finish.
• Cutting-Edge Tech: Be part of a team developing decentralized, blockchain-driven technology that democratizes access to machine learning compute power.
• Start-Up Innovation: This company has raised over $50 million in funding, and the company is on a mission to disrupt the AI infrastructure landscape, providing a dynamic and fast-paced environment for talented engineers

This role focuses on building large-scale distributed systems. As a Principal Distributed Systems Software Engineer, you will be responsible for architecting and implementing robust backend systems using Rust (or C++, Golang, etc. if Rust experience is limited). The primary focus is on core software engineering, emphasizing computer science fundamentals, data structures, algorithms, and systems architecture.

Must Haves:
• Strong computer science fundamentals, including data structures and algorithms.
