Develops and maintains secure, upgradeable ERC-20 smart contracts with custom metadata, lifecycle controls, and administrative logic. Builds high-performance blockchain listeners (in Go or Node.js) to monitor token events and trigger workflows across systems and services. Works with managed Ethereum node providers (e.g. QuickNode, Alchemy, Infura) to ensure reliable, low-latency access to blockchain data and transactions. Contributes to the exchange integration strategy, including CLOB engines, token listing criteria, market-maker logic, and pricing syncs. Coordinates with backend and low-code teams (e.g. Xano, N8N) to surface token state, pricing, and analytics data across internal dashboards and public facing interfaces.
