- Participate in the design and testing of wallet features, including user authentication, transaction signing, and cross-chain asset transfers.
Job Requirements
- Proven experience in blockchain development, with a strong background in designing and implementing wallet systems for at least two major blockchain networks.
- Expertise in programming languages such as Solidity, JavaScript, Python, or Go, with hands-on experience in developing decentralized applications (DApps).
- Deep understanding of cryptographic principles, including public-key infrastructure, hashing algorithms, and secure data storage techniques.
- Knowledge of blockchain consensus mechanisms, smart contract development, and cross-chain interoperability solutions (e.g., atomic swaps, bridges).
- Experience with wallet development frameworks (e.g., MetaMask, Trust Wallet) and tools for managing blockchain transactions and private keys.
- Strong problem-solving skills to address technical challenges related to wallet performance, security, and user experience in decentralized environments.
- Ability to analyze and resolve complex issues in blockchain protocols, ensuring compatibility and reliability across different networks.
- Proficiency in DevOps practices, including CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure (e.g., AWS, Azure), and containerization technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
- Excellent communication skills to collaborate with stakeholders, document technical specifications, and present solutions to non-technical audiences.
- Experience with blockchain analytics tools and monitoring systems to track wallet activity, detect anomalies, and ensure system integrity.
Qualifications
- Master's or PhD in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or a related field, with a focus on blockchain technologies and distributed systems.
- Minimum of 5 years of professional experience in blockchain development, with a track record of delivering scalable wallet solutions.
- Certifications in blockchain development (e.g., Certified Blockchain Developer, Ethereum Developer Certificate) or cybersecurity (e.g., CISSP, CISA) are highly preferred.
- Strong analytical and critical thinking skills to evaluate technical risks, design secure systems, and optimize wallet performance in high-stakes environments.
- Experience with agile development methodologies and collaborative tools (e.g., Jira, Git) to manage project timelines and deliverables effectively.
- Knowledge of regulatory frameworks (e.g., GDPR, SEC guidelines) and compliance requirements for blockchain-based financial services.
- Ability to work independently and as part of a team to achieve complex technical objectives and drive innovation in blockchain wallet development.
- Excellent time management skills to balance multiple projects, meet deadlines, and ensure continuous improvement of wallet systems.
- Proficiency in testing frameworks (e.g., Mocha, Jest) and debugging tools to ensure wallet reliability and security across different platforms.
- Experience with blockchain governance models and community engagement strategies to align wallet development with user needs and industry standards.
Work Environment
This role operates in a dynamic and fast-paced environment, requiring collaboration with cross-functional teams, including product managers, security analysts, and DevOps engineers. The candidate will work remotely or in-office, depending on company policy, and engage with global stakeholders to ensure wallet solutions meet international standards. The team emphasizes innovation, security, and user-centric design, fostering a culture of continuous learning and technical excellence. Regular communication with clients and end-users is essential to gather feedback and refine wallet features. The work involves handling sensitive data and ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory frameworks, requiring a high level of professionalism and attention to detail.
