We are seeking a highly skilled Blockchain Developer with expertise in Rust to join our team in building and deploying smart contracts on the Stellar blockchain. As part of our cutting-edge blockchain development team, you will focus on designing, developing, and maintaining secure and efficient smart contracts tailored to the Stellar ecosystem.
Responsibilities:
- Design, implement, and optimize smart contracts using Rust on the Stellar blockchain.
- Collaborate with blockchain architects and the core development team to create robust decentralized applications (dApps) on Stellar.
- Integrate Stellar smart contracts with existing applications and back-end services.
- Ensure security and compliance of smart contracts, focusing on preventing vulnerabilities (e.g., reentrancy attacks, overflow/underflow issues).
- Write comprehensive tests to ensure the correctness, safety, and performance of smart contracts.
- Monitor and optimize on-chain transactions and contract performance, minimizing gas fees and ensuring efficiency.
- Stay up-to-date with the latest trends in the Stellar ecosystem, smart contract standards, and Rust development best practices.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define and execute the roadmap for decentralized finance (DeFi) and other blockchain-based products.
Requirements:
- Proven experience developing smart contracts on Stellar or other blockchain platforms.
- Strong programming skills in Rust with a focus on blockchain development.
- Experience with Stellar's Soroban smart contract platform is highly preferred.
- Solid understanding of blockchain fundamentals, consensus mechanisms, and decentralized applications (dApps).
- Familiarity with Stellar SDKs, Stellar Core, and integration of Stellar Lumens (XLM).
- Experience with security audits, testing, and deployment of blockchain-based applications.
- Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail in designing complex, secure systems.
- Excellent teamwork and communication skills.
Nice to Have:
- Experience in DeFi projects or building decentralized exchanges (DEXs) on Stellar.
- Knowledge of other blockchain platforms and technologies such as Ethereum, Solana, or Polkadot.
- Experience with off-chain scaling solutions and cross-chain interoperability protocols.
