• Collaborate with various teams to create blockchain-based representations of cash, MMFs, and deposit instruments;

• Integrate blockchain solutions with digital asset custody platforms such as Fireblocks and similar providers;

• Develop and maintain on-chain data indexing strategies for access by off-chain applications;

• Apply security best practices throughout the smart contract development lifecycle, including reviews and audits;

• Use platforms like Alchemy, Infura, or Chainstack to ensure reliable access to blockchain infrastructure;

• Deploy and manage decentralized applications on Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS) platforms, with a preference for Kaleido;

• Contribute to R&D initiatives focused on central bank digital currency (CBDC) settlement models (e.g., mBridge, Project Ensemble);

• Assist with CI/CD and DevOps workflows related to decentralized deployments.

• Practical knowledge of blockchain data indexing tools;

• Strong grasp of Ethereum infrastructure and blockchain access providers (e.g., Alchemy, Infura, Chainstack);

• Experience deploying solutions via enterprise BaaS platforms like Kaleido;

• Familiarity with ongoing CBDC projects and their settlement frameworks (e.g., mBridge, Ensemble, Dunbar).

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with enterprise identity and access management systems (OAuth2, SAML) and IDP integrations;

• Knowledge of Kubernetes, containerized dApp deployments, and Helm for orchestration;

• Background in cloud-native solutions, particularly on AWS or Azure;

• Proficiency in Java and Spring Boot, particularly for backend integrations with smart contracts;

• Understanding of KYC/AML processes or experience working with compliance solution providers.

The recruitment process includes:

• HR screening 30min Zoom call;

• 1h technical interview;

• General call with the team leader;

• Making an offer meeting.
