Mawari Network Senior Blockchain Engineer
Mawari
Software Engineering
Ontario, Canada
Posted on Oct 6, 2025
What We’re Building
The Mawari Network orchestrates a decentralized ecosystem of GPU-powered nodes running the Mawari Engine, a proprietary rendering and streaming stack optimized for XR. We leverage Web3 principles to ensure scalability, transparency, and fairness in the network.
Our blockchain layer is the backbone of this ecosystem, enabling staking, licensing, reward distribution, and coordination across thousands of distributed nodes.
Why work with us
As a Senior Blockchain Engineer at Mawari, you’ll take a leading role in architecting, building, and scaling the decentralized backbone of the Mawari Network. You will design and deploy smart contracts, manage tokenomics-critical infrastructure, and lead blockchain initiatives from concept to production.
This role is both technical and strategic, you’ll be hands-on with code while mentoring other engineers, guiding architecture, and ensuring production-grade reliability at scale.
Key Responsibilities
Blockchain & decentralized systems
Education and experience
Mawari’s Canadian office is at the Waterloo Accelerator Centre - a modern and vibrant facility adjacent to the University of Waterloo campus. It’s conveniently located on the Ion elect light rail systems running North-South here in Waterloo Region. The Waterloo Accelerator is a modern work environment with plenty of natural light, open space and flexible meeting areas as well as free coffee/tea service.
Hiring Policy
At Mawari, we’re building a team where everyone belongs. We know that diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences make us stronger — and help us create better products for our customers and communities.
