Job Type: Full Time, Remote
Position Summary
We are seeking a talented Software Engineer to build, scale, and own the public blockchain layer of our product offering. You will architect the smart contracts, the block-listening infrastructure, and the event-driven services that bridge our private bank reserves with public liquidity.
You will work with a modern tech stack on Google Cloud Platform and will have the opportunity to solve complex challenges in the FinTech and Web3 space, supported by a team of highly competent people all aligned to liberating money.
Key Responsibilities
- Smart Contract Development: Build and deploy tokenized assets (ERC-20) and Identity NFT (ERC-721) contracts on public blockchains.
- Finality-Aware Infrastructure: Develop chain-oriented services, ensuring the platform correctly handles probabilistic finality and chain reorganizations before notifying internal systems.
- Real-Time Synchronization: Maintain and support reconciliation services to process on-chain events (mints, burns, transfers) and trigger corresponding updates in our internal systems.
- Secure Mint/Burn Orchestration: Implement services utilizing Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) for secure, multi-party authorized on-chain transactions.
- Inconsistency Detection: Implement Discrepancy Detection Services to verify fundamental system invariants.
- System Scalability & Reliability: Gain a deep understanding of our cloud architecture to ensure the high availability and scalability of our APIs, data processing reactors, and ledger systems.

- Public Blockchain Mastery: Expert-level Solidity and experience with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM).
- Event-Driven Systems: Proficiency with high-throughput message brokers (e.g., Kinesis, PubSub, RabbitMQ) to manage the flow of finalized blockchain events.
- Resilient Architecture: Strong understanding of Idempotency and Event Ordering to prevent race conditions during distributed state updates.
- Blockchain Integration: Experience building distributed, fault-tolerant services that interact with blockchain nodes via JSON-RPC.
- Identity & Compliance: Familiarity with on-chain whitelisting mechanisms using NFTs to enforce regulatory standards.
- A strong foundation in software development best practices, including version control (Git), automated testing, and CI/CD.
- Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment.
Nice to Haves (Preferred Qualifications)
- Familiarity with the FinTech, Blockchain, or Web3 ecosystems and concepts like smart contracts.
- Knowledge of containerization and orchestration technologies like Docker and Kubernetes.
