Senior Software Engineer - Go & Rust, Blockchain Infrastructure
Quicknode, United States +1
The role
Quicknode deploys institutional-grade infrastructure - Core RPC API, Streams, Webhooks, Clusters, and developer tooling - across 80+ blockchain networks for teams building onchain. The Engineering team behind this infrastructure needs a senior individual contributor who can design, build, and improve the distributed systems that ingest, process, and serve blockchain data at scale, working across both Go and Rust.
This is a hands-on engineering and technical-leadership role for someone who moves comfortably between high-throughput Go services and performance- and security-critical Rust components. You will own complex systems from design through production and raise the engineering bar on reliability, performance, security, and operational quality.
This role reports into Engineering leadership for the Blockchain Infrastructure team and carries no direct reports at this level. As scope grows, you will take on larger system ownership, mentor other engineers, and help set engineering standards adopted across teams - a natural path toward Staff or Principal Engineer.
