Are you passionate about the mechanics behind decentralized, secure, and immutable systems? Do you have expertise in Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) and the drive to develop innovative solutions using blockchain, DAGs, or other decentralized systems? If you're excited about creating, optimizing, and scaling decentralized technologies for real-world applications, then our client has the ideal role for you. We’re looking for a DLT Specialist (aka The Ledger Architect) to design and implement distributed ledger solutions that drive business innovation, security, and efficiency.
As a DLT Specialist at our client, you will work with blockchain developers, security specialists, and business leaders to design DLT-based solutions that can revolutionize industries like finance, supply chain, healthcare, and more. From blockchain-based systems to other distributed ledgers like Hyperledger or IOTA, your work will help build decentralized, transparent, and secure platforms.
Key Responsibilities:
1. Design and Develop Distributed Ledger Systems: Architect and implement DLT-based systems using platforms such as Ethereum, Hyperledger, IOTA, or Corda. You’ll work on designing distributed architectures, consensus mechanisms, and smart contract integrations to power decentralized applications.
2. Implement and Optimize Consensus Algorithms: Develop and optimize consensus mechanisms such as Proof of Work (PoW), Proof of Stake (PoS), Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT), and Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) systems. You’ll ensure that your DLT solutions are secure, scalable, and efficient.
3. Collaborate on DLT Integration: Work closely with cross-functional teams to integrate DLT solutions into existing business infrastructures. You’ll collaborate with product managers, developers, and stakeholders to ensure smooth deployment and seamless operation of DLT platforms.
4. Develop Smart Contracts and Automation Solutions: Design and implement smart contracts for automating processes such as asset transfers, tokenization, and governance. You’ll ensure that smart contracts are secure, efficient, and optimized for your chosen DLT platform.
5. Ensure Security and Compliance: Implement cryptographic security standards and ensure that DLT systems are compliant with regulatory requirements, including GDPR, AML/KYC, and data privacy regulations. You’ll also perform security audits and vulnerability assessments to identify and mitigate risks.
6. DLT Scalability and Performance Optimization: Optimize the performance and scalability of DLT systems to handle large volumes of transactions. You’ll work on solutions such as sharding, layer 2 protocols, and DAG-based models to improve throughput and reduce latency.
7. Research and Stay Current with DLT Innovations: Stay informed of the latest developments and trends in distributed ledger technology. You’ll experiment with new protocols, frameworks, and architectures to continuously improve the solutions you build and keep the company at the forefront of DLT innovation.
Required Skills:
* DLT Expertise: Strong knowledge of distributed ledger technologies such as blockchain, Hyperledger, IOTA, Corda, or other decentralized platforms. You understand consensus algorithms, decentralized storage, and the technical foundations of DLT systems.
* Smart Contract Development: Proficiency in developing and deploying smart contracts using languages like Solidity, Rust, or Chaincode. You’re experienced in implementing secure, automated processes for asset transfer, tokenization, or voting.
* Cryptography and Security: Expertise in cryptographic protocols, encryption techniques, and key management practices to ensure the integrity and security of DLT systems. You understand the security challenges specific to decentralized systems.
* Scalability Solutions: Experience with layer 2 solutions, sharding, and other scalability techniques. You know how to optimize DLT performance for high transaction volumes and complex decentralized applications.
* Collaboration and Communication: Strong communication skills and the ability to work closely with technical and non-technical teams. You can explain complex DLT concepts to stakeholders and collaborate on developing business-driven DLT solutions.
Educational Requirements:
* Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Blockchain, Cryptography, or a related field. Equivalent experience in distributed ledger technology is highly valued.
* Certifications or additional coursework in blockchain, cryptography, or DLT development are a plus.
Experience Requirements:
* 3+ years of experience in DLT development or architecture, with hands-on experience implementing decentralized systems and designing distributed applications.
* Proven experience working with DLT platforms such as Ethereum, Hyperledger, IOTA, or Corda.
* Experience conducting performance optimization and security assessments of DLT systems is highly desirable.
