\n** Blockchain experience not required! ** \n\nWe're operating in a very new industry and we're prepared to bring candidates up to speed! Few sectors are hot as blockchain right now - talk about professional growth :)\n\nJoin the Swarm\n\nWe're developing innovative solutions to age-old information security problems - and we need your help.\n\nAt it's core, PolySwarm is market design enabled by smart contracts. We're (literally) programming a market that will produce crowdsourced threat intelligence (malware detection today, more tomorrow). \n\nNo one has done this before. We'll get things wrong - that's okay! With your help, we'll get fewer things wrong, identify mistakes earlier and improve processes to prevent future missteps.\n\nYou're in on the ground floor - you'll have a say in what we do and how we do it. By joining Swarm Technologies, you'll be joining a dynamic team on the bleeding edge of information (computer) security and blockchain - answering questions few have thought to ask.\n\nIf you're interested in any of:\n\n* information security\n\n* blockchain (Ethereum smart contracts in particular)\n\n* malware reverse engineering\n\n* market design (a la Who Gets What and Why by Alvin Roth)\n\n* technical challenges that cannot be solved via iteration\n\n* unknown unknowns\n\n\n\n... then we're interested in you.\n\nThe Ideal Candidate Is...\n\n* independently motivated & self-directing\n\n* introspective: able to identify weak spots / problem areas our existing processes or code and suggest / implement solutions\n\n* interested in information security topics outside of work - huge props for capture the flag (CTF) participation!\n\n\n\nExample Big-Picture Problem\n\nThe Ethereum block time leaves a lot to be desired for a marketplace that intends to supplant millions of malware scans a day.\n\nHow do we best reconcile millions of scans daily with a 15 second block time and today's block size limits?\n\nExample Tactical Problem\n\nThe rust-web3 bindings don't support WebSockets. WebSocket support is necessary for subscribing to "push" notifications of Ethereum events: https://github.com/tomusdrw/rust-web3/pull/101\n\nAt Swarm Technologies, you'll tackle both big-picture and tactical problems :)\n\nWe Offer\n\n\n* Competitive salaries\n\n* Excellent health, dental, vision coverage\n\n* Unlimited* paid vacation days\n\n* Travel (if you like). We have offices in San Diego, Puerto Rico and Tokyo and we often find ourselves travelling elsewhere. If travel interests you, we can scratch that itch.\n\n* Flexible work hours - outside of scheduled meetings, we don't care *when* you work, we care about your output.\n\n* Powerful servers, laptops, desktops - whatever you need to be most productive!\n\n\n\n\n*Within reason! We avoid arbitrary numbers for vacation allotments. Take what you need, don't abuse it. As a start-up, we may ask that you avoid vacation for crunch times. \n\n#Salary and compensation\n
