Senior Research Manager at Insolar
Europe, United States, Russia * Full Time
Insolar(tm) is powering decentralized business networks. Insolar builds the next
generation high-performance scalable blockchain platform designed with the
express purpose to meet an immense business scope. The enterprise-grade
distributed ledger cloud platform will help to increase business velocity, create
new revenue streams, and reduce cost and risk by securely extending enterprise
SaaS and on-premises applications to drive tamper-resistant transactions on a
trusted business network.
Insolar(tm) values the expansion of the ecosystem which operates across chains,
systems, industries, and applications. With a range of protocols and modules, data
and information will be connected to support various business scenarios. Our goal
is to build the underlying blockchain infrastructure to bridge the real world and
the distributed digital world. With this, companies and organizations from
different industries will be able to develop applications for a range of scenarios
and collaborate with other entities on the platform.
Why are we developing a new blockchain? We have been searching for a suitable
existing solution, checked all alternatives (Hyperledger, Corda, Quorum, etc.),
didn't find any that is ready for enterprise use. The blockchain industry is flooded
by scientists and young developers lacking extensive enterprise experience and
industrial knowledge. We started Insolar to create an alternative. By leveraging
rich experience in building complex enterprise software, utilising best available
technological solutions, and engaging directly with future end-customers -
predominantly large enterprises from Global Fortune 500 list - we are able to
provide a robust, reliable and scalable blockchain platform and developer tools
that meet enterprise requirements. We believe that blockchain technology should
bring real value beyond the hype. It should create new business opportunities,
decrease costs and increase transparency.
Insolar employs 50+ people in Russia, Canada and UK.
