About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Contribute directly to the Splice codebase on Canton Network, writing production-grade Scala across core distributed ledger components.
Design and implement features end-to-end: from specification refinement through testing, review, and deployment.
Work within a globally distributed Agile team, coordinating across time zones with asynchronous-first communication.
Mentor and onboard engineers new to the Canton/Daml ecosystem, building internal capability over time.
Participate in architecture discussions and technical decision-making, bringing well-reasoned opinions grounded in distributed systems experience.
Maintain high standards for code quality, test coverage, and documentation in a codebase where correctness is critical.

Requirements

What you’ll need

5+ years of professional Scala experience, with a strong command of functional programming patterns (typeclasses, effect systems, immutability, referential transparency).
Strong grasp of the Scala type system, including implicits/givens, type inference, and leveraging the compiler for correctness guarantees.
Solid understanding of distributed systems: consensus mechanisms, fault tolerance, eventual consistency, and partition handling.
Experience with Canton and/or Daml is strongly preferred; otherwise, a demonstrated willingness and ability to develop deep expertise in both technologies is required.
Comfortable working with gRPC, Protobuf, and service-oriented architectures.

Benefits
