Back-end & DevOps Lead in Enya Inc.

Closed job - No longer receiving applicants

At Enya, we are creating a more inclusive Ethereum ecosystem by reducing the barriers of adoption for users and developers. We are empowering DeFi and NFT projects to scale more cost-effectively while delivering a smoother user experience through Boba Network, a next-generation Ethereum Layer 2 solution whose its mainnet is set to launch publicly later this year.

Boba will enable developers across the Ethereum ecosystem to build dApps that invoke code executed on web-scale infrastructure such as AWS Lambda, making it possible to leverage sophisticated algorithms that are either too expensive or impossible to execute on-chain.

Boba also offers fast exits that are backed by community-driven liquidity pools, shrinking the conventional Optimistic Rollup withdrawal period from seven days to only a few minutes while giving liquidity providers an opportunity to generate yield on their crypto assets.
