Job description
Ockam is creating a blockchain for connected devices, a massively distributed foundation for the Internet of Things.

Developers struggle to build reliable IoT systems. There are 10 billion IoT devices, and billions more come online every year. A fragmented ecosystem and limited tools make it hard deploy and secure device networks at scale. Ockam is a toolchain for developers that makes device identity, trust and interoperability as simple as it should be.
