Kwil is a framework for deploying relational databases as [decentralized,
byzantine fault tolerant blockchain
networks](https://www.kwil.com/blog/fortifying-postgres-with-byzantine-fault-
tolerance). Backed by Blockchange, Digital Currency Group, AlleyCorp, Amplify
Partners, and other leading VCs, Kwil's decentralized SQL solution is poised
to become a major infrastructure layer in the next generation of Web3 dApps
and protocols.
Kwil is seeking a full-stack software engineer with experience building
frontend applications in NextJS (or other frontend frameworks) and backend
services in TypeScript and/or Go. This role will take you beyond the

deployment services (greenfield development), maintaining Kwil’s client-side
tooling (e.g. CLIs, SDKs, etc), maintaining and producing front-end
applications, and contributing to the core Kwil protocol occasionally. The
ideal candidate will also have some experience with developer relations and
will help existing and prospective Kwil clients with navigating and using the
Kwil product.
We are a lean team that works hard and moves fast. Every team member is highly
autonomous and supports each other in doing the best work of our lives. If
building a product that will shape the future of the internet excites you,
then this is the role for you.
