  • Design backend logic to connect decentralized storage with blockchain-based access control
  • Write smart contract interaction modules for NFTs, subscriptions, or tokenized services
  • Handle user authentication via wallet (MetaMask, WalletConnect) and integrate on-chain identity
  • Optimize performance for high-volume IPFS-based content access
  • Maintain secure communication between backend systems and blockchain nodes (e.g., Infura, Alchemy, self-hosted)
  • Collaborate on architecture design with distributed systems and product teams
  • Write clear documentation and contribute to internal standards for secure Web3 APIs

Requirements

  • 4+ years experience in backend development (Node.js, Go, or Python preferred)
  • Strong experience with IPFS, including pinning, gateways, and CID management
  • Proficiency in integrating Ethereum smart contracts via web3.js or ethers.js
  • Familiarity with Solidity smart contracts and on-chain data structures
  • Deep understanding of RESTful APIs and backend security practices
  • Experience with MongoDB, Redis, or PostgreSQL
  • Working knowledge of JWT, OAuth, and wallet-based authentication flows
  • Comfortable with Docker, CI/CD tools, and scalable backend architecture
  • Solid understanding of blockchain fundamentals, dApps, and decentralized identity

Nice to have

  • Experience building NFT or token-based platforms
  • Familiarity with Layer 2 chains (Polygon, Arbitrum) or cross-chain storage bridges
  • Contributions to open-source Web3 backend tools or IPFS projects
  • Familiarity with decentralized domain systems like ENS or Unstoppable Domains
  • Past experience working in a blockchain-based SaaS or hosting product

What we offer

  • Competitive salary with performance-based bonuses
  • Access to top-tier infrastructure and mentorship in decentralized hosting
  • Opportunity to shape real Web3 products used by developers and creators globally
