Software Engineer, Raven Technologies Group LLC

Remote, United States of America We are looking for a part-time software engineer to help implement a proof of concept for an experimental decentralized, censorship-resistant networking protocol.

The network architecture and protocol design are already substantially defined. Your job will be to translate that design into a working Python implementation, make implementation-level engineering decisions, and help identify problems that emerge during testing. The objective is a functional proof of concept, not a production-ready implementation.

The work primarily involves Python, peer-to-peer networking, asynchronous/concurrent programming, and applied cryptography.

Experience implementing network protocols, peer-to-peer systems, or distributed systems is a plus but not required.

This is not a cryptocurrency, NFT, or Web3 project.

Approximately 20 hours per week at $20 USD/hour. The initial proof-of-concept effort is expected to last approximately four months.

• Strong Python programming skills.

• Good understanding of networking and network protocols.

• Familiarity with asynchronous or concurrent programming.

• Working knowledge of applied cryptography and standard cryptographic primitives.

• Ability to independently reason through, implement, and debug systems.

• Use of generative AI or AI coding assistants for project work is not permitted.
