DFINITY remote jobs and company guide

We are the DFINITY Foundation, a Swiss-based not-for-profit organization and a major contributor to the Internet Computer blockchain. Our mission is to develop and contribute technology that enables the Internet Computer and its ecosystem to flourish. We believe the Internet Computer represents a generational shift in computing, extending the functionality of the public internet to host the world's software and services in a completely decentralized manner. This is powered by novel 'chain-key cryptography,' which allows it to run at web speed with remarkable efficiency. Our smart contracts can serve web content directly to end-users, and the on-chain compute capacity can scale without limits. These capabilities open up the exciting possibility for mass-market Web3 services to run entirely on-chain, positioning blockchain as a viable alternative to traditional IT infrastructure, including cloud services.

We're reimagining the internet as a public network that hosts secure software and services, aiming to reverse Big Tech's monopolization. The Internet Computer is a new technology stack that is designed to be unhackable, fast, and scalable to billions of users globally. It supports a new kind of autonomous software, enabling developers to build websites, enterprise systems, and internet services within an open environment. This public software development platform is created by independent data centers around the world, combining their computing power using an advanced decentralized protocol called ICP (Internet Computer Protocol). The Internet Computer is governed and updated by the Network Nervous System (NNS), a protocol-integrated DAO that makes decisions using liquid democracy. Our team comprises over 200 world-renowned scientists and engineers specializing in cryptography, distributed systems, execution environments, programming languages, and more. We are dedicated to fostering the advancement and adoption of the Internet Computer, with the ultimate goal of creating a 'blockchain singularity' where the majority of humanity's systems and services are rebuilt and reimagined on this revolutionary platform.
