DFINITY is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join its Zurich headquarters and help build the next generation of decentralized identity. As a member of the Identity team you will work on Internet Identity, a privacy‑preserving authentication system powering a growing ecosystem of applications on the Internet Computer and beyond. Instead of traditional usernames and passwords it abstracts away concrete methods integrating passkeys and other authentication systems like Google, Microsoft or Apple.
Responsibilities
* Design and implement high‑quality intuitive user interfaces with a strong focus on usability and clarity.
* Work with stakeholders to gather requirements, evaluate trade‑offs and shape technical solutions.
* Rapidly prototype and iterate on proof‑of‑concept implementations.
* Collaborate closely with cross‑disciplinary teams including engineers, designers, researchers and product managers.
Qualifications
* Significant experience as a senior full‑stack or front‑end‑leaning engineer.
* Deep knowledge of frontend technologies such as HTML, CSS and TypeScript.
* Strong experience with modern frameworks such as React; experience with Svelte is a plus.
* Working knowledge of at least one systems programming language such as Rust.
* Experience designing, deploying and operating production systems that run 24/7.
* Comfort forming and clearly communicating informed opinions navigating engineering and UX trade‑offs and collaborating effectively; able to lead decisions independently when needed while also embracing team consensus and alternative solutions.
* A degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience. Practical experience is more important than an advanced degree.
