Develop, test, and audit smart contracts written in Solidity or equivalent languages, ensuring security, correctness, and gas efficiency
Integrate Web3 libraries and SDKs (e.g., Web3J, Web3JS, Ethers.js, Viem) into enterprise Java and/or Node.js backend services
Implement asynchronous, event-driven architectures to handle on-chain events, transaction lifecycle management, and blockchain state synchronization
Collaborate with architects and senior engineers to contribute to the design of scalable, secure, and resilient Web3 infrastructure
Participate in code reviews, providing and receiving constructive technical feedback to maintain high engineering standards
Support the integration of digital asset custody solutions, tokenization frameworks, and DeFi/TradFi bridging components
Contribute to technical documentation, including smart contract specifications, integration guides, and architecture notes
Stay current with the rapidly evolving Web3 ecosystem tracking protocol upgrades, new token standards, Layer 2 solutions, and emerging tooling relevant to institutional use cases
Work within Agile/Scrum frameworks, participating in sprint planning, stand-ups, and retrospectives within a distributed global team
Help identify and resolve technical issues across the Web3 stack, escalating where appropriate to ensure delivery quality and timelines
