Job Description

Who We Are

The Solana Foundation is a non-profit based in Zug, Switzerland, dedicated to the adoption, decentralization, and security of the Solana network. Solana is a high performance blockchain that can deliver a fast and friendly user experience, without sacrificing security. The Solana Foundation is working to realize a world where individuals own their data, use permissionless networks, and transfer information and value freely around the world. We are looking for talented people who are willing to jump right in and use their expertise to help the ecosystem build.

What We Do

The Solana Foundation Product team is responsible for working with internal and external teams to build tooling, infrastructure and products that help builders create better applications across the ecosystem. The product team works full-stack to find solutions to acute problems and find collaboration opportunities to build standards, working groups and provision grants where appropriate.

The Opportunity

Solana Foundation is seeking a highly driven Rust Engineer to join our Product team. The ideal candidate is driven, product-minded and committed to finding a balance between quality and shipping. You will work with the internal product organization on building new scaffolds, templates and big product ideas we’re working on in 2025. As a small team within a larger org, we’re generalists who can slot smaller projects into a bigger picture.

  • Demonstrated ability to build projects 0-1 and own the continued development 1-N
