Salaried compensation is expected to begin within 4 to 5 months, following our node, token sales or funding.

Role: Senior Backend Engineer We are seeking an exceptional Senior Backend Engineer for a part‑time, equity‑based cofounder role to join our elite platform engineering team at the forefront of blockchain infrastructure. At Autheo, you’ll build a scalable backend platform orchestrating 1B+ TPS, 200GB/s DePIN data flows, and cross‑chain integrations via GraphQL/gRPC APIs, delivering sub‑1 ms responses, 99.999% uptime, and unbreakable encryption across Ethereum, Solana, Polkadot, Cosmos, and 20+ ecosystems.

As a Senior Backend Engineer, you’ll design server‑side logic for WebAssembly (WASM) runtimes using Rust or Go, powering privacy‑preserving smart contracts, secure DePIN compute tasks, and sovereign dApp deployments. This role is critical to creating a platform surpassing Ethereum’s EVM and Solana’s SVM by embedding cryptography, homomorphic encryption, and zero‑knowledge proofs, enabling encrypted computations at 0.4 µs per operation. You’ll collaborate with cryptographers, blockchain experts, AI/ML specialists, and DePIN architects to drive our Layer 0/1 ecosystem for exabyte‑scale data processing.

Key Responsibilities Design Backend Services
