Metagraph Developer - Scala (remote)

Role:
Constellation Network is looking for a full time remote developer to build on-chain projects within our ecosystem. The primary work would be in developing metagraphs, our version of L1 subnets, and supporting other builders in our ecosystem through good documentation, educational material, and library development. Metagraphs are developed in functional Scala using the cats library and our custom metagraph framework.

About Constellation Network:
Constellation is a decentralized network, written in Scala, with a focus on allowing developers to build highly scalable application-specific blockchains. Developers can build metagraphs, or subnetworks, with the ability to customize their applications based on their own business logic for data validation, consensus, and include token-based incentives or fees. The unique micro-service oriented architecture of metagraphs allows them to scale to meet the needs of big data and high throughput workloads. In addition to our open source public network, Constellation has worked with the US Department of Defense since 2019 to develop military-grade cross-chain messaging capabilities for the US Air Force and other federal agencies.

Our team is 100% remote and international.

Please check out some of the onboarding materials prepared for our most recent hackathon for an idea of some of the projects you might be working on.
