Blockchain Architect

Job Description: We are looking for a highly experienced Blockchain Architect to lead the design and implementation of next-generation blockchain infrastructure. The ideal candidate has 10+ years of experience in blockchain engineering, distributed systems, and protocol design with a deep technical foundation across multiple public and private blockchains. You'll play a critical role in architecting scalable, secure, and interoperable blockchain systems, driving innovation in decentralized technology that bridges Web3, AI, and enterprise-grade infrastructure. Key Responsibilities: - Architect, design, and oversee the implementation of modular blockchain systems and supporting infrastructure. - Define and optimize on-chain and off-chain architecture, including consensus design, node infrastructure, and data flow. - Evaluate and integrate multiple blockchain frameworks (Solana, Ethereum, Polygon, Hyperledger, etc.) based on performance and use-case needs. - Lead protocol-level innovation, ensuring scalability, interoperability, and reliability across distributed environments. - Implement smart contract frameworks using Rust, Go, or Solidity with a strong emphasis on performance and security. - Design cross-chain communication protocols and bridges to enhance ecosystem connectivity. - Conduct architecture reviews, audits, and performance benchmarking to ensure platform robustness. - Collaborate with engineering, AI, and product teams to align technical architecture with long-term vision and roadmap. - Stay ahead of blockchain and AI convergence trends, recommending new technologies and frameworks for future adoption. Qualifications Required: - 10+ years of experience in blockchain systems design, distributed computing, or protocol-level engineering. - Strong proficiency in Rust, Go, and Solidity, with deep knowledge of blockchain internals and virtual machine design. - Hands-on experience with multiple blockchain platforms (e.g., Solana, Ethereum, Polygon, Hyperledger, or other L1/L2s). - Proven background in building or architecting scalable decentralized systems. - Strong understanding of cryptographic principles, consensus algorithms, and network security. - Experience designing systems focused on high throughput, low latency, and fault tolerance. - Demonstrated leadership in technical architecture, system scalability, and team mentorship. - Familiarity with AI or ML-driven optimization in distributed networks is a strong advantage.,
