&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;At Aztec, our goal is to take the original promise of Ethereum–a decentralized and verifiable world computer–and expand its capability immensely by making it fully encrypted.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the current public blockchain paradigm, users and entities unknowingly broadcast data in the public, compromising privacy and security to get trustlessness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Not only are unencrypted blockchains inherently privacy-exposing, they require significant redundancy to compute and verify the legitimacy of transactions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Implementing scalable encryption in a public blockchain paradigm requires cutting-edge math and engineering. Thankfully, our team of scientists and engineers invented Plonk, the industry-standard zkSNARK, and Noir, the universal language of zero knowledge.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now, we’re building a first of its kind public-private encrypted blockchain: Ethereum, encrypted. And it’s now time to bring it to market.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We’ve raised $125 million from industry-leading investors including a16z crypto, Paradigm, Variant, Consensys, and a_capital, and we’re growing quickly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;row ui-content&quot;&gt;

Junior Cryptographer

&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;At Aztec, our goal is to take the original promise of Ethereum–a decentralized and verifiable world computer–and expand its capability immensely by making it fully encrypted.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the current public blockchain paradigm, users and entities unknowingly broadcast data in the public, compromising privacy and security to get trustlessness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Not only are unencrypted blockchains inherently privacy-exposing, they require significant redundancy to compute and verify the legitimacy of transactions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Implementing scalable encryption in a public blockchain paradigm requires cutting-edge math and engineering. Thankfully, our team of scientists and engineers invented Plonk, the industry-standard zkSNARK, and Noir, the universal language of zero knowledge.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now, we’re building a first of its kind public-private encrypted blockchain: Ethereum, encrypted. And it’s now time to bring it to market.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We’ve raised $125 million from industry-leading investors including a16z crypto, Paradigm, Variant, Consensys, and a_capital, and we’re growing quickly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Role:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;We’re looking for a Marketing Manager with a deep interest in crypto systems in general and Ethereum scaling solutions in particular. While this is a non-technical role, you must be web3 native, able to quickly develop familiarity with complex topics. You’re passionate about brand, advocacy, and educating the Aztec community of encryption-first users and developers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;This is a high-impact role, both within Aztec and in the broader Ethereum, crypto, and zero-knowledge communities. You will have the scope and mandate to develop marketing strategies that will become industry standard.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;You’re not just a Discord degenerate, Twitter tinkerer or Medium monkey, but someone driven by the ideals of decentralization.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;You should love numbers and metrics, writing, memes, and creating connections online. You will become a subject-matter expert on Aztec’s marketing strategy and execution, with broad autonomy to execute your mandate.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;This role will work closely with the Developer Relations, Growth and Ecosystem teams, with close collaboration with the COO and co-founders.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your responsibilities will include:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Becoming proficient in speaking about crypto and Aztec’s technology, fielding inbound inquiries and directing them where appropriate&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Building SOPs and systems for managing user and developer education&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Constructing rewarding, engaging systems for community growth and retention&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Seizing the memes of production&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;You will own and coordinate our short-term goal of driving adoption of Noir among the ZK community, and educating users on our next-gen rollup as we bring it to market, working closely with the broader Commercial Team to execute 2 of the 3 pillars of our marketing strategy:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;

&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Your time will roughly be allocated:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;60% metrics-driven marketing, including SEO, paid, and content partnerships&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;30% scaling our social media production and owning our content calendar, setting up systems to streamline content production by the engineering and crypto teams&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

Senior Software Engineer

&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;At Aztec, our goal is to take the original promise of Ethereum–a decentralized and verifiable world computer–and expand its capability immensely by making it fully encrypted.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the current public blockchain paradigm, users and entities unknowingly broadcast data in the public, compromising privacy and security to get trustlessness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Not only are unencrypted blockchains inherently privacy-exposing, they require significant redundancy to compute and verify the legitimacy of transactions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Implementing scalable encryption in a public blockchain paradigm requires cutting-edge math and engineering. Thankfully, our team of scientists and engineers invented Plonk, the industry-standard zkSNARK, and Noir, the universal language of zero knowledge.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now, we’re building a first of its kind public-private encrypted blockchain: Ethereum, encrypted. And it’s now time to bring it to market.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We’ve raised $125 million from industry-leading investors including a16z crypto, Paradigm, Variant, Consensys, and a_capital, and we’re growing quickly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h3 class=&quot;part in-view&quot; data-startline=&quot;20&quot; data-endline=&quot;20&quot; data-position=&quot;1425&quot; data-size=&quot;0&quot;&gt;&lt;strong data-position=&quot;1425&quot; data-size=&quot;0&quot;&gt;&lt;span data-position=&quot;1427&quot; data-size=&quot;10&quot;&gt;Role focus:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We&#39;re looking for entrepreneurial thinkers that are interested in tackling new problems working across the entire codebase to:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Understand the full system architecture end to end&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Prioritize and document technical debt and un-necessary complexity within the system&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Implement solutions and improvements for key stakeholders&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Refactor code, improving readability, documentation, maintainability and unit testing&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Influence and enhance current engineering bar&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ensure we&#39;re using the most up-to-date tooling and development workflows for maximum developer efficiency&lt;/li&gt;

Software Engineer (C++ Focus)

&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;At Aztec, our goal is to take the original promise of Ethereum–a decentralized and verifiable world computer–and expand its capability immensely by making it fully encrypted.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the current public blockchain paradigm, users and entities unknowingly broadcast data in the public, compromising privacy and security to get trustlessness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Not only are unencrypted blockchains inherently privacy-exposing, they require significant redundancy to compute and verify the legitimacy of transactions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Implementing scalable encryption in a public blockchain paradigm requires cutting-edge math and engineering. Thankfully, our team of scientists and engineers invented Plonk, the industry-standard zkSNARK, and Noir, the universal language of zero knowledge.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now, we’re building a first of its kind public-private encrypted blockchain: Ethereum, encrypted. And it’s now time to bring it to market.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We’ve raised $125 million from industry-leading investors including a16z crypto, Paradigm, Variant, Consensys, and a_capital, and we’re growing quickly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Role:&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;Be comfortable with SSA terminology&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Be familiar enough with CraneLift and possibly LLVM to discuss the advantages and dis-adavantages of both approaches&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Have previous experience converting an AST to a SSA IR, preferably using CraneLift as the Noir middle-end is designed after CraneLift&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Be comfortable implementing and owning optimizations&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Have experience with Rust and writing open source Rust cod&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Noir is an integral part of the Aztec vision as it is the language that will power the ecosystem.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Responsibilities:&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;Short term; this role will involve fleshing out the SSA generation and optimization passes&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Long term; This role will involve modifying the SSA IR and constraint generation to accommodate Noir smart contracts. This work may involve diving into what is conventionally referred to as the frontend where type generation and program resolution is completed. Enough knowledge to modify this section of the code will be needed but this role will not be responsible for ownership of it.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Qualifications: (Example)&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;1-3 years of Rust 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;Have a strong knowledge of compilers (in particular SSA generation)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Have a firm understanding of how constraints are generated from high level constructs such as arrays, inequalities and integer addition.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Familiarity with Noir, its purpose and other languages that have similar goals.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;C++ and typescript experience a bonus&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Nice-to-have:&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;Worked on IDE tools such as a syntax highlighter and language server.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Developed a toy compiler, preferable a compiler and not an interpreter&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Familiarity with current blockchain tooling and developer 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;Knowledge of Circom/Zokrates and ZkEVM&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;A love for beautiful abstractions while being pragmatic&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;
