Junior Consensus Algorithm Developer (Blockchain Consensus and Development)

About Openmesh and Xnode

In today's world, a small number of large corporations control the majority of data and IT infrastructure. This concentration of power can have negative consequences such as social inequality, scandals, and privacy concerns. Openmesh aims to change this by providing an open-source cloud infrastructure and global open data network that allows for the storage of important global data without any intermediaries. We are the largest open web3 data lake, covering a large portion of the crypto and web3 ecosystem. We plan to expand our data coverage to include public health and scientific research data in the near future.

Openmesh allows anyone to create their own decentralized data cloud, share data securely, and automate the setup process. Our flagship product, Xnode, is a platform that revolutionizes the way developers build decentralized data clouds. With Xnode, developers can create their own data clouds with minimal time and cost, while also benefiting from powerful analytics engines. We also offer unified APIs that provide easy access to crypto and web3 data for anyone, without registration or charges.

Our vision

Our vision is to democratize data and address information asymmetry on a large scale. We believe that everyone should have access to reliable, unedited information, which is essential for a free and democratic society. Openmesh operates on the principles of openness and decentralization, ensuring that no single authority can control or alter the data. Our technology stack is open-source and governed by an open-source community.
