About Storj Labs Inc.

Storj Labs Inc. is an early-stage startup. We’re building a p2p protocol, a cloud storage service, and a suite of applications that aim to fundamentally change the way people and devices own data. We’re on a mission to rethink cloud storage, to provide the security, privacy, and transparency it’s missing.

Job Description

We have some big questions about our storage network. How can we guarantee 99.999% availability (or better!) to our customers? How much does past behavior predict future behavior? Who should we contract to store data? We’re looking for someone to help us get some big answers.

This is an open-ended job built around a complex problem: given information about nodes on a peer-to-peer network, including storage capacity, uptime, relative latency, and bandwidth, how do you distribute data storage across nodes to meet or exceed availability and accessibility goals? If this seems interesting to you, well, we can pay you to solve it!

This is a full time position in our office.
