Eigen Labs is building the infrastructure for a more trustworthy internet by making any digital service verifiable, moving beyond crypto's current focus on digital money to make all digital interactions more trustworthy.

Requirements

  • Deep understanding of Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) such as Intel TDX/SGX including its internal architectures, security models, and limitations.
  • Strong computer science fundamentals with experience designing scalable, reliable, and secure distributed systems.
  • You’re highly proficient in Rust and Go.
  • Familiarity with state-of-the-art blockchain systems and the evolving landscape of verifiable compute.
  • Hands-on experience working with Intel TDX, especially in GPU-accelerated environments.
  • Practical experience deploying or managing cloud-based TEE systems (e.g., Intel TDX on GCP, or similar platforms).

Responsibilities

  • Lead groundbreaking research in Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) - such as Intel TDX - to explore how they can power the next generation of verifiable and trust-minimized offchain systems.
  • Design and build production-grade systems that bring blockchain-level verifiability to offchain computation, bridging the gap between secure hardware and decentralized trust.
  • Architect, implement, and scale secure, high-performance infrastructure that pushes the boundaries of what’s possible in verifiable compute - from prototype to full production deployment.
  • Lead research in confidential computing technologies (such as Intel TDX) to develop a deep, end-to-end understanding of their architecture, capabilities, and limitations.
  • Responsible for designing and implementing robust, production-grade systems that leverage these technologies.

Other

  • This is a full-time hybrid position based in Seattle, with remote flexibility for exceptionally strong candidates.
  • A passion for tackling ambiguous, complex problems and driving clarity through experimentation, creativity, and technical excellence.
  • We expect everyone to be super high agency.
  • You will work closely with product managers, engineers and our outside partners to solve some of the most complex and challenging problems in this space.
  • We are an equal opportunity employer.
