Who we are

Aztec Network releases its next iteration of zk.money, demonstrating the power of the Aztec Connect SDK to build seamless integrations with DeFi protocols like Lido and Element. At Aztec we believe decentralization is premised on individual rights. Without widely accessible privacy, we compromise our ability to choose how we live our lives and earn our livelihoods. Aztec is built from the ground up to be privacy-first. Our UTXO architecture, inspired by Bitcoin, allows for end-to-end encrypted transactions. And our category-defining zero-knowledge research means privacy is fast and efficient.

YOUR CHALLENGES:

A key goal of Aztec over the coming year is to meaningfully decentralise the network. We’re also looking to extend the existing system with new features. Achieving this will require a multi-disciplinary approach that will cover our entire tech stack. One area of particular attention are our proof circuits. We’re looking for engineers with specific circuit experience to:

  • Modify rollup circuits to enable a new coordinator network entity to incentivise network liveness.
  • Modify rollup circuits to enable us to prove that “off chain data” (data not needed for network liveness), is valid, and is published correctly on e.g. IPFS.
  • Modify rollup circuits to advance the topology from a 28x32 architecture to a more parallelisable, recursive, 2x2 architecture.
  • Extend our circuits to enable atomic swaps for trading use cases.
  • Extend our join-split circuits to add support for secp256k1/secp256r1 signatures, enabling signing with TouchId, FaceId and other TPM modules.
  • Contribute to our next generation system Aztec3, which involves a new range of circuit functionality.
