  • Develop, deploy, and maintain production-grade smart contracts and DEX integrations

  • Build multi-chain transaction infrastructure across EVM-compatible networks, Solana, and other non-EVM ecosystems

  • Build and operate RPC integrations, blockchain nodes, indexers, reorg-aware chain listeners, and on-chain data pipelines

  • Own the transaction lifecycle from policy checks and signing through confirmation, reconciliation, and recovery

  • Establish strong practices for observability, incident response, operational security, and failure recovery
