Zero-knowledge cryptography is going to transform the way we use the Internet. Our mission at Ulvetanna is to accelerate the ZK revolution by delivering the most reliable and cost-efficient proof generation for web3 networks. We are building a state-of-the-art, high performance ZK proving platform from the ground up, leveraging principles of hardware/software co-design and the latest advances in both computing hardware and algorithmic research.
Role Overview
As a cryptographic software engineer at Ulvetanna, you will contribute to internal and open-source zk-SNARK proving codebases, analyze their performance, and propose and implement optimizations.
Your days may include modifying and refactoring the codebases to utilize hardware coprocessors, reading and implementing zero-knowledge cryptography research, reverse engineering high-level algorithms from open-source software and smart contracts, and designing or analyzing arithmetic constraint systems for verifiable programs.
Team members work closely with the FPGA engineers to specify algorithms implemented in hardware, and with the systems software engineers to interface efficiently with hardware acceleration units.
