About Openmesh and Xnode

Today, a small number of corporations dominate the majority of the world's data and IT infrastructure, which raises concerns about trust and control. Openmesh is addressing this issue by providing an open-source cloud infrastructure and a global open data network. Our goal is to store important global data without the need for intermediaries. We are currently the largest open web3 data lake, encompassing approximately 80% of the crypto and web3 ecosystem. Our future plans include expanding our data coverage to public health and scientific research data.

Openmesh allows individuals to create their own decentralized data cloud, enabling global connectivity, secure data sharing, reduced deployment costs, and automated cloud setup. It serves as the internet's open data fabric, granting universal access and preventing interference from regulators, governments, corporations, and even its creators.

Core Products

  • The flagship product, Xnode, revolutionizes the development of decentralized data clouds. This platform allows developers to easily create their own data clouds with data connectivity, APIs, and analytics engines, reducing time and cost.
  • Pythia is a powerful analytics and query engine that transforms raw data into actionable insights, empowering anyone to design, build, visualize, and deploy data products.
  • Unified APIs provide a single endpoint for accessing crypto and web3 data, making it accessible to anyone without any additional fees.

Our Vision

Our vision is to democratize data and address information asymmetry on a global scale. We believe that access to reliable and unedited information is essential for a free and democratic society. Openmesh operates under the core principle of having no single authority controlling its data. The entire infrastructure and technology stack are open-source and governed by an open-source community.

The Opportunity

By joining Openmesh, you will have the opportunity to learn about groundbreaking innovations in Data, Cloud, Blockchain, AI, and Web3 Infrastructure from visionaries in these fields. You will gain access to our technology, participate in hackathons, attend virtual conferences, be mentored, utilize the R&D infrastructure, and partake in workshops. Whether in-person or remote, you will be able to gain on-the-job experience and develop problem-solving skills, teamwork skills, and professional thinking. The knowledge and skills acquired during your time with us will prepare you for a successful career at Openmesh. Exceptional candidates may even receive a full-time job offer and the chance to win cash prizes through our mini-hackathon series.

About the Role

As a Junior Data Architect, your primary responsibility will be to shape and organize data within the Xnode decentralized data cloud. You will work alongside Pythia developers to define data structures that support advanced analytics and enhance the overall capabilities of the open web3 data network.

Responsibilities

  • Design and optimize data models within the Xnode decentralized data cloud to ensure scalability, efficiency, and data integrity.
  • Collaborate with Pythia developers to implement data structures that enable advanced analytics and query processes.
  • Implement metadata management strategies to enhance data discoverability within the decentralized data landscape.
  • Conduct performance tuning of data models to improve response times for queries and enhance overall system efficiency.

  • Experience with database management systems (e.g., MySQL, MongoDB).
  • Proficiency in data modeling and schema design.
  • Strong understanding of data security and privacy.
  • Excellent teamwork and communication skills.

Why Join Us
