• Contribute to the development of end-to-end Web3 applications, including smart contracts, backend services, and integrations.
• Collaborate with product managers and architects to translate requirements into technical designs and implementations.
• Evaluate blockchain platforms, tooling, and standards to inform design decisions and development practices.
