Blockchain Developer - Privacy Focus at DAPS Project

The Peepcoin-DAPS Project is looking for experts in privacy protocols! DAPS plans to be the world's first fully private coin, utilizing the features of other protocols in an attempt to set a new standard for privacy, while having a trustless setup and governance. To enable this, a unique feature called Proof-Of-Audit will be created.



This is a paid role. Compensation is to be decided on a case by case basis. Depending on depth of experience this may become a head developer role with other benefits included.



You: A high-level contributing engineer and/or expert in other protocols such as Monero or Zcash. C++ experts preferred.



Us: We have a serious, long term vision and rigorous standards. We plan to be an example of professionalism and innovation. Our project has a large and active community, with a written code of conduct and governance to give a true foundation for success.





Requirements:

- Full-cycle development experience with EITHER/OR;

--

- Monero familiarity, including RingCT library implementation

- Zcash familiarity, including Zero-knowledge Proofs implementation and the "Zerocash" protocol family (Zerocoin, Libzerocoin, Zerocash)

- Other relevant protocols detailed in DAPS documentation (to be further reviewed in interview process)

- Familiarity with proof-of-work algorithms and implementations, able to craft homebrew work algos

[If you have more than one of the above in your repertoire, even better!]

--

- A Github with recorded activity in relevant projects



- C++ familiarity required, other languages can be used as suggested but the vast majority of work is expected to be done in C++



- Able to build, compile, bugfix sources independently



- Able to sign Privacy Policy and NDA (General Team NDA and additional DAPS NDA) prior to official access



- Accept terms of Governance, including adhering to the code of conduct at all times



Preferred:

- Passionate about privacy and other aspects of our coin's projected features, including the DAPS ecosystem

- Long term minded, recognizing this project has a multi-year vision

- Network security and general cryptography expertise





Job tasks:



- Build DAPS code and network, using DAPS whitepaper and documentation as framework. Merging Zero-Knowledge Proofs with the RingCT library is the primary feature package, with alternative configurations reserved.



- Crafting and implementation of unique Proof-Of-Audit (Proof of work substitute) on-chain solution to enable trustless setup of privacy networks. Documentation details theoretical implementation further



- Present weekly progress report to Coordinator, suggest alterations or additional items



- Determine allocation of future development fund, in accordance with governance (Developers will be paid from this DAPS Dev Fund allocation!)



- Building the most all-encompassing privacy coin to date!
