&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://edgeandnode.com&quot;&gt;Edge &amp;amp; Node&lt;/a&gt; is a creative software development company working to build a vibrant, decentralized future. Founded by the initial team behind The Graph, Edge &amp;amp; Node is dedicated to the advancement of web3, a decentralized and fair internet where public data is available to all—an internet that enables its users to increase agency over their creations and their lives.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Edge &amp;amp; Node’s initial product is &lt;a href=&quot;https://thegraph.com/en/&quot;&gt;The Graph&lt;/a&gt;, an indexing protocol for querying networks like Ethereum and IPFS, which ensures open data is always available and easy to access. The Graph is used by thousands of protocols and dapps including Uniswap, Livepeer, Aave, Decentraland, and more. Edge &amp;amp; Node also launched &lt;a href=&quot;https://everest.link/&quot;&gt;Everest&lt;/a&gt;, a decentralized registry with the mission to catalyze the shift to web3, facilitating community-driven curation of projects providing ongoing utility to the crypto space.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Developer Relations function is responsible for nurturing a mutually beneficial relationship between the web3 developer community and The Graph ecosystem. They not only share powerful, helpful information about The Graph, subgraphs, and other products and features with the developer community but also share feedback from the developer community back to the Engineering, Product, Marketing, and Business teams within Edge &amp;amp; Node and The Graph ecosystem. Acting as a bridge, Developer Relations creates a special synergy between The Graph and the developer community in hopes of accelerating the growth and usage of The Graph within web3.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We are looking for someone passionate about blockchain development and about the power of The Graph. You are familiar with The Graph Network and subgraphs and may have already built several in the past. The community is your family and you are ready to help them with the product whenever needed. You care about users and try to ensure they have the best experience interacting with products.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;What You’ll Be Doing&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Representing The Graph ecosystem at both in-person and online events&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Attending and speaking at technical events around the globe including meetups, hackathons, and conferences&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Providing technical support to our community via various social channels (e.g. GitHub, Discord, Twitter, Reddit, Telegram, Stackoverflow, and more)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Engaging, growing, and providing support to The Graph’s developer community&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assisting with user onboarding and project integration&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Owning and overseeing technical documentation&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;About The Graph&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;content-conclusion&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://thegraph.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;The Graph&lt;/a&gt; is the indexing and query layer of web3. The Graph Network’s self service experience for developers launched in July 2021. Developers build and publish open APIs, called subgraphs, that applications can query using GraphQL. The Graph supports indexing data from multiple different networks including Ethereum, NEAR, Arbitrium, Optimism, Polygon, Avalanche, Celo, Fantom, Moonbeam, IPFS, and PoA with more networks coming soon. To date, tens-of-thousands of subgraphs have been deployed on the hosted service, and now subgraphs can be deployed directly on the network. Over 28,000 developers have built subgraphs for applications such as Uniswap, Synthetix, KnownOrigin, Art Blocks, Balancer, Livepeer, DAOstack, Audius, Decentraland, and many others.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you are a developer building an application or web3 application, you can use subgraphs for indexing and querying data from blockchains. &lt;a href=&quot;https://thegraph.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;The Graph&lt;/a&gt; allows applications to efficiently and performantly present data in a UI and allows other developers to use your subgraph too! You can &lt;a href=&quot;https://thegraph.com/docs/en/developer/quick-start/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;deploy a subgraph&lt;/a&gt; to the network using the newly launched &lt;a href=&quot;https://thegraph.com/studio/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Subgraph Studio&lt;/a&gt; or query existing subgraphs that are in the &lt;a href=&quot;https://thegraph.com/explorer/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Graph Explorer&lt;/a&gt;.

Who Are We?

Obol Labs is a remote-first research and software development team focused on Proof of Stake infrastructure for public blockchain networks. Specific topics of focus are Internet Bonds, Distributed Validator Technology, and Multi-Operator Validation. The core team includes 14 members spread across 8 countries.

The core team is building the Obol Network, a protocol to foster trust-minimized staking through multi-operator validation. This will enable low-trust access to Ethereum staking yield, which can be used as a core building block in various Web3 products.

The Network

The network can be best visualized as a work layer that sits directly on top of the base layer consensus. This work layer is designed to provide the base layer with more resiliency and decentralization as it scales. In this chapter of Ethereum, we will move on to the next great scaling challenge, which is stake centralization. Layers like Obol are critical to the long-term viability and resiliency of public networks, especially networks like Ethereum.

Obol as a layer is focused on scaling main chain staking by providing permissionless access to Distributed Validators. The network utilizes a middleware implementation of Distributed Validator Technology (DVT), to enable the operation of distributed validator clusters that can preserve validators' current client and remote signing configurations.

Similar to how roll-up technology laid the foundation for L2 scaling implementations, we believe DVT will do the same for scaling the consensus layer while preserving decentralization. Staking infrastructure is entering its protocol phase of evolution, which must include trust-minimized staking networks that can be plugged into at scale. We believe DVT will evolve into a widely used primitive and will ensure the security, resiliency, and decentralization of public networks.

The Obol Network develops and maintains four core public goods that will eventually work together through circular economics:

The DV Launchpad, a User Interface for bootstrapping and managing Distributed Validators

Charon, a middleware Golang client that enables validators to run in a fault-tolerant, distributed manner

Obol Managers, a set of solidity libraries for the formation of Distributed Validators tailored to different use cases such as DeFi, Liquid Staking, and Fractionalized Deposits 

Obol Testnets, a set of ongoing public incentivized testnets that enable any sized operator to test their deployment before serving for the Ethereum Main net

Sustainable Public Goods

Obol is inspired by previous work on Ethereum public goods and experimenting with circular economics. We believe that to unlock innovation in staking use cases, a credibly neutral layer must exist for innovation to flow and evolve vertically. Without this layer, highly available uptime will continue to be a moat.

The Obol Network will become an open, community-governed, self-sustaining project over the coming months and years. Together we will incentivize, build, and maintain distributed validator technology that makes public networks a more secure and resilient foundation to build on top of.

Validator Relations' (ValRel) mission is to cover the strategies and tactics for building and nurturing mutually beneficial relationships between Obol and the global validator community. 
The Validator Relations role will provide opportunities for validators to be more successful by making them aware of our solutions, enabling them through extraordinary experiences, and fostering engagement and a culture of collaboration.

We are seeking a technically-minded individual with a passion for people and a deep interest in Ethereum staking. The position will work closely with Obol’s product, growth, and business functions to achieve common goals across the diverse community of Obol network validators.

&lt;div class=&quot;content-intro&quot;&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;About Aztec&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;At Aztec we believe privacy isn’t just a fundamental right, but a creative force for web3. Our goal is to unleash the full potential of decentralized technologies by building an open, privacy-first network with no compromises.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Privacy enables use cases that otherwise would not be possible and accelerates mainstream adoption. The next wave of web3 applications will require programmable privacy. Aztec’s technology empowers developers with the tools to build private applications and bring their ideas to reality.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Our journey started while building an application to bring syndicated loans on chain. We realized that our idea was a nonstarter without privacy. There were no solutions to offer privacy on public blockchains - so we sought out to build it ourselves. Since then, we&#39;ve made industry-leading advances in cryptography, and deployed a private money platform and a private DeFi platform.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;To realize our vision of implementing privacy on a public blockchain, we are building a world-class team of cryptographers, engineers, and ecosystem builders. Supporting us on this journey are leading investors including A16z, Paradigm, Variant, Consensys, and a_capital.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Responsibilities:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Aztec’s success depends on empowering developers to build with our technology and securing partners that expand our distribution. Our goal is to have millions (and eventually billions) of people around the world use our cutting-edge technology.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;We are not going to be able to build everything ourselves. Growing a global developer network that builds on and contributes to the Aztec protocol is vital to our success. The developer relations team is an integral component in growing this network that works closely with marketing, product, business development, and engineering.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;We communicate how Aztec can unlock new opportunities and use cases. We help bring these teams’ ideas to life by providing the technical support needed for a successful integration and launch. We work cross functionally to deliver technical support to partners, inform the product roadmap, and develop external messaging.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;In this role you will:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Communicate Aztec’s value proposition to developers and potential partners with a focus on technical details&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Rally and coordinate a community of protocol contributors and infrastructure providers to support the health of the social layer of the Aztec network, on which the infrastructure layer depends&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Support partner engineers as they integrate with and build on the Aztec protocol&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Write technical documentation explaining various parts of the Aztec tech stack (sequencers, provers, zk circuits, infrastructure)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Scope opportunities, engage potential partners, and coordinate partnership execution&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Collect feedback from developers and surface to the product and engineering teams&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Be a general advocate for external developers within the company&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Help plan how to best reach and support the community of developers building on Aztec&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Work cross functionally to communicate feedback and resolve partner issues&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Screen and support grant applicants through the grants process&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Share your experience and learnings with the wider developer community via your channels of choice (Twitter, blog posts, presentations, office hours, Github, Discord, etc)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Be resourceful and decisive. Find creative solutions and implement them with minimal guidance where appropriate&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Qualifications:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Background in engineering or computer science (self-taught developers are welcome)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Experience working with Ethereum or related blockchain technologies&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Community management experience&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;4-6+ years of work experience, with 3+ years spent in developer relations, engineering or similar roles at a technology company and experience driving alignment with cross functional partners&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Intellectually curious with a strong understanding of and passion for the crypto industry&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Compelling communicator with the ability to explain complicated things simply&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;An ability to learn quickly, be proactive, and be highly adaptable&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Nice-to-haves:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Experience working at a developer-centric company or with developer communities&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Experience with educating or mentoring developers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;content-conclusion&quot;&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What we offer:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A highly competitive compensation package (including equity)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Flexible and remote work environment&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;25 days holiday + bank holidays annually&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;An opportunity to work at the cutting edge of blockchain and FinTech with a world class cryptography and engineering team&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;content-intro&quot;&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;About Aztec&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;At Aztec we believe privacy isn’t just a fundamental right, but a creative force for web3. Our goal is to unleash the full potential of decentralized technologies by building an open, privacy-first network with no compromises.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Privacy enables use cases that otherwise would not be possible and accelerates mainstream adoption. The next wave of web3 applications will require programmable privacy. Aztec’s technology empowers developers with the tools to build private applications and bring their ideas to reality.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Our journey started while building an application to bring syndicated loans on chain.
