Computer Software
Responsibilities
Ship production VM executing encrypted WASM at 0.4 μs/opcode and 1 B+ TPS
Build DAG-based parallel interpreter eliminating re-execution and enabling topological scheduling
Embed CKKS/BFV fully homomorphic execution directly in the opcode set
Implement in-VM zk-proof generation + verification (1–5 ms) for every state transition
Deliver native SGX/TrustZone support with 1 TB sealed memory and remote attestation
Ship post-quantum cryptographic opcodes (Kyber + Dilithium) with <10 μs overhead
Design 80 % state compression + encrypted linear memory preserving FHE compatibility
Build zero-config multi-language SDK (Rust/Go/Solidity/JS) with automatic FFI and proof generation
Enable GPU-native parallel execution of independent contract shards
Publish native encrypted VM and zk-VM breakthroughs at ASPLOS, SOSP, OSDI, PLDI
Keynote at WasmCon 2026 on '1 Billion Encrypted TPS Virtual Machine with Native FHE'
Qualification
Required
8+ years building production virtual machines or WASM runtimes in Rust
Multiple mainnet-grade execution engines achieving ≥100 M TPS
Hands-on FHE and zk-proof integration into instruction sets
Deep expertise in JIT/AOT, secure enclaves, memory safety, and formal verification
Proven 10×+ performance over EVM/SVM baselines
Preferred
Core contributor to Wasmtime, Lucet, Firecracker, or blockchain VMs (EVM, SVM, Move)
First-author papers at top systems or security conferences
Patents in encrypted execution, zk-VMs, or post-quantum runtimes
