  • Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, Terraform, Jenkins/GitHub Actions.

Preferred Skills:

  • Experience with Ethereum, EVM, or Hyperledger.
  • Knowledge of blockchain security and validator operations.
  • Exposure to smart contracts and Web3 ecosystems.
  • Experience contributing to open-source blockchain projects.
  • Prior experience mentoring developers or leading technical initiatives is a plus.


Mandatory:

  • Hands-on production experience with Golang, Cosmos SDK, Blockchain Development, and DevOps.
  • Strong development mindset with a passion for building scalable products.
  • Leadership potential with an interest in growing into a Technical Lead role in the future.
