Software Developer - Rust 100% (Zurich / remote)

HOPR is a Zurich-based association working at the forefront of privacy. Our product, the HOPR protocol, is a decentralized mixnet which incentivizes data relaying, giving users full data and metadata privacy.

We are building public infrastructure for web3 in a free and open source environment. We believe this world can become a better place if we work and grow together.

HOPR was founded and seed funded in Spring 2020. We now have close to a dozen team members and are continuing to grow rapidly. Most of the team works in Zurich, Switzerland, with a second office in Singapore and opportunities for remote work. We are looking for the very finest to become a part of our HOPR family, and help change data privacy for good.
