About Protocol Labs

Protocol Labs drives breakthroughs in computing to push humanity forward. Protocol Labs is a product-development lab, but behind the protocols and tools we build, behind the research and implementations, are passionate people, teammates, and community members. Most teams in the Protocol Labs Network are fully distributed and work remotely around the world. Engineers, researchers, and operators work in the open to improve the internet — humanity's most important technology — as we explore new advances at the intersection of many exciting fields (web3, cryptography, networks, distributed systems) and cultures (startups, research, open-source, distributed work).

Sentinel provides tooling for monitoring, extracting and analyzing data from the Filecoin network. This data includes on-chain metrics and events and off-chain information like price points or Filecoin’s peer-to-peer network health.

  • Conduct design and code reviews on projects within the Sentinel and data warehousing repositories.
  • Support and administration of various columnar and relational databases.
  • Collaborate with other data engineers to create a self-service data platform.
  • Champion Protocol Labs’ GRC strategy for data governance, risk management, privacy, security, quality, and retention, ensuring compliance with legal and business requirements.

You may be a fit for this role if you have....

  • 3+ years experience in software engineering or related field.
  • Strong programming experience in Python, Go or other languages.
  • Experience with data modeling and schema design.
  • A strong understanding of the software development lifecycle.
