Sr. Blockchain Engineer (Ganache)

Your primary work will be to maintain and improve Ganache, our “Ethereum Simulator”. Ganache is a tool that allows developers to start a local blockchain environment to enable easy, fast, and safe Ethereum development.

Ganache is packaged as a JavaScript library, a command-line application, and a Graphical User Interface. It is downloaded more than 400,000 times every month. You can check out the code here: https://github.com/trufflesuit... share responsibilities with your team to:
