* Mentor and guide other engineers, fostering a culture of collaboration, innovation, and continuous improvement.
* Take ownership of technical projects from inception through to production, ensuring timely and high-quality delivery.
* Contribute to architectural decisions and long-term technology strategy, balancing short-term needs with long-term scalability and maintainability.
* Ensure the security, reliability, and performance of our platform through rigorous testing, monitoring, and proactive problem-solving.
* Stay current with emerging technologies, frameworks, and best practices, particularly in the blockchain and cryptocurrency domains.

**Qualifications:**

* Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
* 7+ years of experience as a Full Stack Engineer, with demonstrated expertise in both frontend and backend development.
* Deep knowledge of frontend technologies such as React, or Vue.js, and backend technologies such as Node.js, Python, or Go.
* Extensive experience with RESTful APIs, microservices architecture, and cloud platforms like AWS, GCP, or Azure.
* Proficiency in database management, including both SQL (e.g., PostgreSQL) and NoSQL (e.g., MongoDB) databases.
* Strong understanding of DevOps practices, including CI/CD pipelines, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and infrastructure as code.
* Proven track record of delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance applications in production environments.
* Experience in the cryptocurrency or fintech industries is highly desirable.
* Strong leadership skills, with a demonstrated ability to lead technical projects and mentor engineering teams.
* Excellent problem-solving skills, with a focus on delivering innovative and effective solutions.
