• Proven track record of leading the design and deployment of production-quality, scalable distributed systems.
• Hands-on experience with Ethereum development tools (Hardhat, Foundry) and deep understanding of Web3 fundamentals.
• Expert-level skills in SQL database schema design and experience with high-throughput messaging like Kafka and caching via Redis.
• Professional experience with AWS/GCP and container orchestration systems like Kubernetes (EKS/ECS).
• Excellent communication skills with a curious mindset; a self-starter who can move at a fast pace with minimal supervision.
