Jobbeschreibung

Job Intro

As a Blockchain Solutions Architect in our team you will work on real-world use cases that do not primarily focus on token speculation but instead aim to leverage blockchain technology to solve meaningful challenges. If you would rather see NFTs representing real-world objects than funny monkey pictures and if you want to help demonstrate the real value of public blockchain infrastructure this position might be just for you.

Responsibilities & Requirements

• Design and implement secure scalable end-to-end blockchain architecture for cloud and on-premise environments covering system integrations, distributed systems, network architecture and database management. Ensure seamless integration with existing IT infrastructure and interoperability between different systems.
• Create reference architectures, blueprints, PoCs, demos and tutorials that guide third-party developers in building dApps on our public network infrastructure.
• Ensure solutions are aligned with strategic goals emphasizing performance, security, scalability and system resilience.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to gather feedback and iterate on technical solutions based on evolving requirements.
• Engage with partners and builders to assess technical requirements translating them into actionable and scalable designs.
• Provide technical demos, documentation, architectural guidance and technical consulting to partners and builders.
• Act as an evangelist for IOTAs technology presenting solutions to technical and non-technical audiences in an easily understandable way.
• Work both independently and collaboratively across teams demonstrating self-sufficiency and ownership in delivering technical solutions.
• Participate in hands-on development when necessary to prototype solutions or resolve critical issues. Ensure secure coding practices and cryptographic methods are applied to protect data integrity and security in blockchain solutions.
• Offer support and troubleshooting for smart contracts, dApps and blockchain solutions.
• Collaborate with R&D and product teams to co-develop tools and frameworks that enable third-party developers to adopt and build on the public permissionless Mainnet.
• Develop and maintain detailed technical documentation including system designs, technical specifications and implementation guides to ensure stakeholders have a clear understanding of the architecture and solutions.
• Stay up to date with blockchain advancements prototype new solutions and contribute to setting technical standards that foster further blockchain adoption.
• Continuously evaluate cryptographic techniques and threat modeling to enhance the security of blockchain systems and guard against vulnerabilities.

Skills & Qualifications

• 5 years of experience in designing, implementing and maintaining cloud and on-premise applications.
• Strong proficiency in at least one blockchain and smart contract platform with practical experience in dApp development.
• Proven experience translating business requirements into high-performing technical solutions.
• Hands‑on development experience with Rust and/or TypeScript.
• Strong communication skills to engage effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Demonstrated ability to collaborate across teams and work independently to align technical solutions with strategic goals.
• Working proficiency in English.
• Preferred location: Europe.
• Experience with the Move Virtual Machine (MoveVM) and smart contract development based on the Move programming language on object-based ledgers.
• Experience with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and smart contract development based on Solidity.
• Familiarity with privacy‑preserving technologies and Self‑Sovereign Identity (SSI).
• Knowledge of decentralized storage solutions (e.g. IPFS, Filecoin).
• Experience with zero‑knowledge proofs and cryptography in blockchain.

What we offer

• Fully remote position with high flexibility and autonomy.
• Opportunities for high‑impact contributions to the blockchain ecosystem.
• A dynamic and collaborative team focused on enabling third parties to build decentralized solutions.
• The chance to work with cutting‑edge blockchain technology.
