Eigen Labs is building the infrastructure for a more trustworthy internet.
Today’s digital world runs on trust-me promises:
“Trust that this AI model is unbiased.”
“Trust that this platform isn’t manipulating your feed.”
“Trust that this service will honor its commitments.”
These assumptions create friction and limit what’s possible online.
Why EigenCloud
EigenCloud changes this by making any digital service verifiable. Built on the EigenLayer protocol—which has attracted billions in economic security—EigenCloud enables developers to build applications with mathematical trust guarantees, not pinky promises.
What This Means
For developers
- Use familiar cloud tools and programming environments
- Gain blockchain-level verifiability
- No need to rewrite apps in specialized blockchain languages
- Avoid smart contract execution constraints
For the world
EigenCloud unlocks transformative applications, including:
- AI systems with economic accountability for outputs
- Social platforms with verifiable, manipulation-resistant algorithms
- Prediction markets that resolve on real-world events
- Financial services with cryptographic transparency
- Any application where trust and correctness matter
We’re moving beyond crypto’s focus on digital money to make all digital interactions more trustworthy. With one of the fastest-growing developer ecosystems in crypto and backing from top-tier investors, verifiable computing is reaching its inflection point.
The Role
As an EigenCloud Summer Fellow, you will own the development of EigenCloud-native applications and product prototypes during an intensive 8-week, on-site program in San Francisco.
You’ll ship in rapid milestones, build in public (where appropriate), and create real, usable artifacts that help developers adopt EigenCloud. Working alongside a highly selective cohort of builders, you’ll collaborate closely with engineers and industry mentors to create solutions that directly accelerate ecosystem growth.
Eligibility: Applicants must have valid U.S. work authorization.
What You Will Do
- Choose a problem space and build solo or in a small team
- Rapidly prototype ideas and reach a working POC in 3–5 days
- Build products that showcase EigenCloud’s capabilities:
- Applications
- Developer tools
- Templates
- Integrations
- Workflows
- Iterate in weekly milestones: ship → get feedback → refine
- Work closely with mentors and engineers via reviews, office hours, and async feedback
- Present weekly progress updates and deliver a polished demo at the Hackathon Finale / Demo Day
- Produce high-quality deliverables:
- Open-source repositories
- Documentation
- Demo videos
- Sample deployments
- Potentially extend your project beyond the program or transition into a full-time role
What You Will Bring
- Creative problem-solving and idea generation skills
- Proficiency with modern development tools (e.g., Cursor)
- An all-in mindset and strong work ethic
- Ability to move fast and deliver POCs in under 3–5 days
- High ownership, autonomy, and execution ability
- Passion for blockchain technology and permissionless innovation
- Strong technical foundation and fast learning ability
- Collaborative spirit and comfort in fast-paced environments
