- Experience with:
- Node.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, React, Solidity
- Scalable AWS infrastructure design
- Smart contract development and security best practices
- Proven ability to align technology, product development, and business strategy.
- Active participation in the Web3 community (e.g., conferences, hackathons, open-source contributions).
- Experience working in a remote-first environment with availability in EU/US-East time zones.
- Your Role
- As CTO, you will drive innovation and execution, shaping the company’s technical vision and strategy while actively contributing to development.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead and mentor a team of 15+ engineers, fostering a high-performance culture.
