• Build and test proofs of concept and integration demos that demonstrate best practices and help partners move faster
• Troubleshoot and resolve integration challenges, ensuring smooth launches and sustained performance post‑deployment
• Keep internal stakeholders aligned on project timelines, dependencies, and progress across multiple concurrent integrations

Let’s connect if you have

• 4+ years of experience in technical solutions architecture, blockchain development, or partner engineering—ideally in Fintech or Crypto
• Ability to understand and read Solidity and Rust (hands‑on coding experience is a plus)
• Proven ability to translate business objectives into clear, scalable technical designs
• Strong communication and collaboration skills—able to bridge technical and non‑technical teams
• Comfortable managing multiple integrations at once and working autonomously to keep projects moving
• Curiosity and enthusiasm for DeFi and how open financial infrastructure is evolving
