Rust Runtime & Developer Tooling Engineer â Autheo | WASM Execution, Contract SDKs & DevHub Tooling

Shape the Future of BlockchainBringing Business On-Chain

Were offering a unique opportunity to join Launch Legends (and Autheo) as a part-time Equity Cofounder. Founded in July 2021 Launch Legends is at the forefront of bridging Web3 blockchain technology with the next evolution of Web2 integrationbringing businesses on-chain through enterprise-grade solutions DePIN innovations and decentralized financial infrastructure.

Our flagship project Autheo is an AI-enabled Layer-0 Operating System with an integrated Layer-1 blockchain and complete decentralized infrastructure that includes decentralized compute storage identity and service marketplaces as well as a full-stack development environment (DevHub)engineered for scalable enterprise adoption developer innovation and real-world blockchain integration.

Our Projects

• Autheo
• THEO token launch & verified markets
• Autheo Team Legends (Parent Company)
• X / Twitter Autheo

  With nearly 100 equity cofounders from leading companies and institutionsmany with advanced degrees and PhDsAutheo is solving the critical challenges blocking business adoption of blockchain technology.

  Autheo Mainnet launched on May 14 2026 (Chain ID 2127) with staking and transaction fees on-chain. DevHub is available to builders. Sovereign identity (TheoID) decentralized compute and persistent storage through the Autheo Marketplace AI inference (THEO AI) and post-quantum cryptography are rolling out on Mainnet.

  THEO is live. This role starts after mainnet not before it.

  THEO trades on Autheo-verified markets with Enflux supporting liquidity across the venues.

  Verified trading links contract addresses and network information: Features

  • Layer-0 OS Layer-1 Sovereign Cosmos-based coordination layer with an EVM-compatible execution environment IBC interoperability and Proof of Autheo consensus.
  • Eigensphere Engine Multi-language runtime. Rust is a first-class path for execution cryptography and developer tooling alongside Go Solidity Move Vyper and C.
  • DevHub & full-stack SDKs One workspace for frontend backend smart contracts and orchestration.
  • TheoID Sovereign identity for people services and AI agents with a post-quantum roadmap (Kyber Dilithium Falcon / NIST ML-KEM ML-DSA SLH-DSA).
  • Autheo Marketplace Decentralized compute storage and service markets rolling out on Mainnet.
  • THEO AI Inference and agent orchestration as a native primitive not a third-party bolt-on.
  • DePIN infrastructure On-chain networks for real-world infrastructure ownership and resource sharing.

  Traction

  • Mainnet: Launched May 14 2026 with on-chain staking fees and a decentralized validator set.
  • Public testnet history: a large active builder and user community before Mainnet.
  • Audits: Halborn (testnet and validator node platform) CertiK (Mainnet and smart contracts) Adevar Labs (Base to Autheo Mainnet bridge).
  • THEO markets: verified venues on MEXC Hydrex on Base and Uniswap on Robinhood Chain with Enflux as liquidity partner across DEX and CEX.
  • Token: THEO the native utility coin of the Autheo network.
  • Organization: Launch Legends Inc. a Wyoming corporation parent of Autheo LLC. Stewarded in part by the Autheo Foundation. 100 equity cofounders across 25 countries.

  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. THEO is already trading; this is an allocation in a live utility token not a promise against a future TGE. 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. There is no cash salary for this role today and the commitment is at least 20 hours per week.

  ROLE: Rust Runtime & Developer Tooling Engineer Autheo Internet Operating System WASM Execution Contract SDKs & DevHub Tooling Job code: LA387

  About the Role

  Autheo is recruiting a Rust engineer to own the execution runtime and the developer experience around it. That means WASM-compatible execution in the Eigensphere Engine the Rust contract and SDK path and the cargo-level tooling a DevHub builder uses to compile test and deploy.

  We want someone who has built a smart-contract language VM or runtime or a developer toolchain other people depend on. Examples include ink!/cargo-contract CosmWasm wasmtime/wasmer Arbitrum Stylus Solana/Anchor Fuel/Sway Move VMs revm or a widely used Rust SDK or CLI.

  Part-time does not mean advisory. Equity cofounder means you own a surface write the code and review the code next to it.

  1. Execution runtime

  • Design and ship deterministic WASM-compatible runtime modules: host functions gas/fuel metering memory limits and safe host calls for contract and DePIN compute tasks.
  • No unsafe without a written reason a test and a reviewer who understands the invariant.
  • Profile execution on replay and on Mainnet. Report p50/p99 allocations and instruction counts you actually measured.

  2. Contract SDK and toolchain

  • A Rust contract SDK (macros storage abstractions ABI/metadata generation) that feels native to Rust developers.
  • A cargo-level CLI to build test deploy and verify with reproducible builds and a local sandbox or replay node so builders can test without a production key.
  • Rust and JavaScript/TypeScript client SDKs with a short path from the docs to a working call.

  3. DevHub integration

  • Wire the toolchain into DevHub: templates examples error messages that tell the user what to fix and versioned releases with changelogs.
  • Work with DevRel on docs and sample contracts and answer developer issues on the paths you own.

  4. Performance and CI

  • Benchmarks in CI for execution and serialization hot paths so a regression fails the build.
  • Fuzz the host interface and the contract ABI.

  Required

  • Public Rust you wrote. A GitHub/GitLab profile crate (with download history) or merged pull requests to a runtime VM compiler or SDK project. Applications without a link to Rust code you wrote yourself will not be reviewed.
  • Production Rust: ownership lifetimes procedural/declarative macros traits and async where it fits.
  • Youve worked inside a VM interpreter runtime or compiler (WASM EVM/revm SVM/eBPF MoveVM FuelVM or similar). Name the codebase and your part in it.
  • Youve published or maintained a library SDK or CLI that other developers used. Point us to it.
  • Comfortable with cross-compilation targets (wasm32 aarch64) and a CI pipeline that builds tests and releases Rust.

  Preferred

  • Contributions to ink!/cargo-contract CosmWasm wasmtime wasmer wasmi revm Stylus Anchor Sway/FuelVM Move or a comparable project.
  • Gas or metering design deterministic execution or sandboxing (seccomp WASI capabilities).
  • TypeScript SDK experience or API design that other teams have adopted.
  • A public artifact we can read: a crate talk blog post or design doc.

  First 90 Days

  • A written map of the Rust execution and tooling surface: whats live whats stubbed and what DevHub users stumble on with a stop / continue / start list.
  • One runtime path (for example host functions plus metering) measured on replay fuzzed covered in CI and documented.
  • A first versioned release of a Rust contract SDK or CLI with a working DevHub template and a sandbox flow.
  • A benchmark in CI for one execution hot path with the number youre willing to put next to your name.

  About Our Organization

  Autheo is building a Layer-0 Operating System and an integrated Layer-1 so identity compute storage developer tooling and AI sit on one network instead of a pile of bridges. Mainnet is live. THEO is trading. The remaining work is product and protocol on that chain not a promise of a future launch.

  🌠🚠WHY JOIN LAUNCH LEGENDS

  • The chain is up. Staking fees DevHub and verified THEO markets are already public.
  • The Rust seat is on execution and developer experience: the WASM runtime contract SDK and DevHub tooling.
  • Equity in Launch Legends and Autheo plus a THEO allocation in a token that already trades.
  • 100 equity cofounders across 25 countries. Remote. Direct line to the engineering leads and the Managing Directors.
