About Autheo
With nearly 100 equity cofounders from leading companies and institutions—many with advanced degrees and PhDs—Autheo is solving the critical challenges blocking business adoption of blockchain technology.
Key Features:
Traction (Testnet Launch):
Compensation & Growth Path
This is a part time equity / token-based cofounder opportunity. You will receive equity in Launch Legends, Autheo, and the WFO Creator Network, along with token allocations in the Autheo blockchain. We have already completed an initial financing round to support infrastructure and marketing, and are currently in discussions with VCs and crypto investors to fund expansion and salaries. Salaried compensation is expected to begin within 4 to 5 months, following our node, token sales or funding.
ROLE: Senior Platform Linux & Kernel Engineer
About the Role
We are seeking an exceptional Senior Platform Linux & Kernel Engineer to join our pioneering team as an Equity Co-Founder at the forefront of native blockchain execution. At Autheo, we are building the platform that redefines decentralized computation, delivering sub-microsecond execution speeds, billions of transactions per second throughput, and mathematically proven security against adversaries.
You will own the hardened, real-time Linux kernel that powers every Autheo node worldwide — delivering 0.4 μs encrypted syscalls at 1 B+ TPS, native FHE and zk-proof acceleration, SGX/TrustZone integration, DAG scheduling, and 80 % state compression — while running on bare-metal DePIN clusters and achieving nation-state resistance.
Key Responsibilities
• Ship custom kernel achieving 0.4 μs encrypted syscall latency at 1 B+ TPS
• Implement DAG-based real-time scheduler with zero re-execution overhead
• Embed CKKS/BFV fully homomorphic encryption directly in kernel for encrypted computation
• Build in-kernel zk-proof generation and verification (1–5 ms) for system calls
• Integrate SGX and ARM TrustZone with 1 TB sealed memory and remote attestation
• Deliver kernel-level post-quantum networking stack (Kyber + Dilithium) at <15 μs overhead
• Ship 80 % state compression and deduplication inside the page cache and slab allocator
• Develop kernel bypass and GPU-direct paths for parallel WASM execution
• Harden kernel against side-channel, rowhammer, spectre/meltdown, and fault-injection attacks
Research, Innovation & Thought Leadership
• Publish kernel-level FHE and zk-acceleration results at ASPLOS, OSDI, SOSP, USENIX ATC
• Keynote at LinuxCon 2026 on “Sub-Microsecond Encrypted Kernel at Planetary Scale”
Requirements – Must Have
• 8+ years shipping production Linux kernel patches and custom distributions
• Multiple mainline or large-scale deployments achieving ≥100 M syscalls/sec
• Hands-on FHE or zk-proof acceleration inside the kernel
• Deep expertise in real-time scheduling, memory management, eBPF, and secure enclaves
• Proven track record hardening kernels for bare-metal high-frequency trading or blockchain environments
Nice to Have
• Linux kernel maintainer credits or significant upstream contributions
• First-author papers at top systems conferences
• Patents in encrypted kernels, zk-acceleration, or post-quantum OS
First 90-Day Deliverables
• Production kernel booting on DePIN fleet with 0.4 μs encrypted syscall latency
• Live in-kernel FHE module performing encrypted computation at 25 μs
• zk-proof syscall extension proving integrity in 1–5 ms
• Full SGX/TrustZone sealed memory + attestation live
• 80 % page-cache compression preserving post-quantum security
• Open-source kernel patch series reaching 1,500+ stars
• Accepted paper + keynote at LinuxCon 2026
Top candidates: 6-hour live kernel hacking session writing encrypted DAG scheduler and FHE syscall from scratch.
About Our Organization
Autheo is a visionary technology company building the virtual machine platform that surpasses Ethereum EVM, Solana SVM, and all legacy execution environments with microsecond latencies, and mathematically proven security. Our mission is to create unbreakable execution infrastructure that empowers developers to build sovereign dApps, confidential DeFi protocols, secure enterprise solutions, and privacy-preserving AI systems. We are developing revolutionary technologies including Layer 0/1 blockchains with attack-resistant consensus, execution environments supporting encrypted computation, sovereign communication systems with perfect forward secrecy, and DePIN networks delivering 200GB/s secure compute. Backed by pioneering runtime leadership and a global team of elite systems engineers, cryptographers, and blockchain architects, Autheo is positioned to dominate the $300B+ smart contract execution market while establishing new standards for secure, scalable decentralized computation. Join us to build the execution foundation that will power the sovereign digital economy of the 21st century.
