• Ensure system reliability by integrating load balancing, database sharding, and caching solutions (Redis, Memcached).

Blockchain & Smart Contract Integration

• Build and optimize services that interact with EVM-compatible chains (Ethereum, Polygon, BSC) and non-EVM chains (Solana, Aptos).
• Work closely with smart contract engineers to develop robust and secure DeFi and NFT applications.
• Conduct security audits to prevent common attack vectors such as reentrancy, flash loans, and MEV exploits.

Infrastructure & Cloud Deployment

• Deploy scalable and fault-tolerant applications using AWS services (ECS, Lambda, Fargate).
• Set up CI/CD pipelines for automated testing, deployment, and monitoring (AWS CodePipeline, GitHub Actions, Kubernetes).
• Optimize cloud storage and database solutions (DynamoDB, PostgreSQL, S3) to ensure high availability and performance.

Security & System Optimization

• Implement DDoS protection, access control policies, and key management solutions (AWS KMS).
• Ensure compliance with best security practices for blockchain applications.

Collaboration & Documentation

• Work with global teams to develop and implement best practices in Web3 backend development.
• Create clear and well-structured API documentation and technical specifications.
• Participate in code reviews and knowledge-sharing sessions.

• Excellent communication skills in English, with the ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams.
• Fluency in Mandarin is required for effective communication with internal teams and stakeholders.

Nice to Have:

• Contributions to open-source Web3 projects (GitHub, DAO involvement).
• Experience with Layer 2 scaling solutions (ZK-Rollups, Optimistic Rollups, cross-chain bridges).
• Background in MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) and smart contract security auditing.
• Deep knowledge of DeFi, NFT, and DAO ecosystems with experience designing tokenomics models.
• Experience handling high-throughput blockchain transaction matching and on-chain data analysis.

Compensation & Benefits:

• Competitive salary + token rewards + equity incentives.
• Remote-first work environment with flexible hours.
• Opportunity to work on cutting-edge Web3 projects with top developers in the industry.
• Support for professional growth, open-source contributions, and technical innovation.
