Hiring: Full-time dev for Iris & secure DMs on Nostr

Nostr should be the simplest, most sovereign way to run an online store: just a phone, no server, no payment processor, no 3rd party accounts. With Cashu, even checkout works offline. No dependency chains, no failure cascades, no loading spinners.

But for e-commerce to be safe, we need encrypted DMs with forward secrecy. Without double ratchet or MLS, a compromised Nostr key leaks all past / future customer messages: orders, addresses, identities.

Secure DMs and groups don’t need network effects. Push notifications keep users coming back. Great way to grow Nostr.

Nostr can be like Signal, but better: No phone number or 3rd party account needed. Communicate over any relays, any clients, even offline over wifi or bluetooth. No central gatekeepers. Just keys.

Iris is the only client with double ratchet today, but any client handling sensitive data needs forward secrecy.
