UltaHost is launching decentralized infrastructure services by combining IPFS and smart contracts to power a new era of Web3 hosting. We're hiring a Web3 Backend Engineer to help us build secure, scalable, and efficient backend systems that connect IPFS-based storage with Ethereum-compatible smart contracts. You will develop key services that power decentralized file hosting, NFT metadata, smart billing, and more. You will work with DevOps, product, and blockchain teams to integrate IPFS infrastructure with blockchain protocols and user-facing applications. This is a highly technical role with critical backend responsibilities.
Job Responsibility:
Build and maintain APIs and microservices that interact with IPFS and smart contracts
Develop secure upload, retrieval, and pinning systems for IPFS storage
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
