MicroStrategy, led by Michael Saylor, is looking to add a new software engineer to its Bitcoin Lightning Dev team.
The R&D team at MicroStrategy has been hard at work developing a suite of Lightning solutions, including a Lightning wallet, enterprise servers, and enterprise authentication.
The software engineer will work with the team to build out its Lightning Network-based Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform, according to the job posting.
The Lightning solution will assist enterprises in managing data for thousands of employees, addressing cyber-security issues, and enabling new eCommerce use cases.
The ideal Engineer should have previous experience developing on the Bitcoin blockchain as well as contributing to Bitcoin Core and other open-source projects.
Michael Saylor, Chairman of MicroStrategy, previously stated that once the Lightning infrastructure is operational, it will bring Bitcoin adoption to over 10 million customers.
Saylor is optimistic about the Lightning Network
Saylor, a prominent Bitcoin Maximalist, has argued that the Bitcoin Lightning Network is the most important technology being developed in the world.
According to Saylor, Lightning Network enables developers to get the most out of highly scalable dApps while leveraging the underlying Bitcoin layer’s trusted security.
‘The ethos of bit coin is to go very carefully and not move fast on the base layer without the universal consensus, but in Lightning, you can move much more aggressively developing functionality and take more risks with the applications than you can with the underlying Bit coin layer’.
