Empoorio was founded on the belief that people should own their digital identity — cryptographically secured, portable across services, and anchored on EmpoorioChain without platform lock-in. Today we are building KryptoOS, the sovereign identity layer for wallets, cloud, and enterprise integrators worldwide.
EmpoorioChain anchors identity commitments on-chain with Substrate pallets for DID registry and VC anchoring. You will ship runtime code, node operations, and tooling for public testnet and beyond. We are looking for a talented, driven engineer to advance EmpoorioChain capabilities and deliver production-quality identity infrastructure. If you thrive in high-ownership environments where correctness and privacy matter, this role will be a strong next step in your career.
Responsibilities
- Operate public RPC, WebSocket endpoints, and credential infrastructure at scale
- Automate deployments for issuer/verifier services and EmpoorioChain node clusters
- Define SLOs, incident response playbooks, and capacity plans for identity workloads
- Implement secure secrets management, network policies, and supply-chain controls
- Improve CI/CD for protocol releases across Rust, TypeScript, and containerized services
Basic qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, mathematics, or equivalent practical experience
- 2+ years of professional experience in software engineering, security, or distributed systems (1+ for specialist IC tracks)
- Ability to work autonomously in a remote-first, async collaboration environment
- Fluency in English for documentation, reviews, and partner communication
Preferred skills and experience
- Experience with W3C Verifiable Credentials, DIDs, or OIDC4VCI / OIDC4VP
- Contributions to Rust, TypeScript, Python, or Dart codebases used in production
- Exposure to Substrate, Polkadot ecosystem, or blockchain anchoring patterns
- Background in privacy engineering, applied cryptography, or formal security reviews
- Prior work with wallet, fintech, or enterprise identity integrations
Additional requirements
- Willing to overlap with EU and Americas time zones for critical releases and incidents
- Able to travel up to 10% for team summits, partner workshops, or conferences
- Reliable home internet and secure workstation suitable for development on sensitive cryptography code
