Job Description
As a blockchain developer, you will be responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining smart contracts on the Ethereum and BSC blockchain platforms. Your primary focus will be to contribute to the development of PancakeSwap by creating innovative features that enhance its functionality and user experience. You will work closely with the engineering team to plan and execute projects at the task level, ensuring alignment with overall product goals. Additionally, you will collaborate with cross-functional partners across various stages of product development, including design, testing, and deployment. You will also play a key role in identifying inefficiencies within the development process and advocating for improvements that benefit the entire team. This position requires a proactive approach to problem-solving and a commitment to adopting best practices in blockchain development.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and deploy secure, scalable smart contracts using Solidity on Ethereum and BSC blockchains.
- Collaborate with product and design teams to translate requirements into technical specifications for decentralized applications.
- Conduct thorough audits of existing smart contracts to identify vulnerabilities and optimize performance.
- Implement advanced features for PancakeSwap, including but not limited to liquidity management, token swaps, and governance mechanisms.
- Participate in code reviews and ensure adherence to security standards, best practices, and code quality guidelines.
- Work with cross-functional teams to coordinate development efforts and resolve technical challenges.
- Stay updated on emerging trends and technologies in blockchain development to drive innovation within the project.
- Document contract logic, development processes, and technical decisions for transparency and team knowledge sharing.
- Contribute to the design and architecture of blockchain protocols to support long-term scalability and interoperability.
- Engage in continuous learning to master new tools, frameworks, and methodologies in the blockchain ecosystem.
Job Requirements
- Proven expertise in Solidity programming with a strong understanding of Ethereum and BSC blockchain technologies.
- Experience in developing and deploying smart contracts for decentralized finance (DeFi) applications or similar projects.
- Deep knowledge of blockchain architecture, consensus mechanisms, and cryptographic principles.
- Excellent problem-solving skills with the ability to debug complex contract interactions and resolve technical bottlenecks.
- Strong collaboration and communication abilities to work effectively with cross-functional teams and stakeholders.
- Ability to analyze and interpret technical requirements to design robust, secure, and efficient contract solutions.
- Proficiency in version control systems (e.g., Git) and agile development methodologies.
- Experience with blockchain development tools such as Truffle, Hardhat, and Remix.
- Knowledge of decentralized application (dApp) frameworks and their integration with blockchain protocols.
- Excellent attention to detail and a commitment to writing clean, maintainable, and well-documented code.
- Ability to work independently and as part of a team to deliver high-quality blockchain solutions on time.
- Strong understanding of smart contract security best practices and common vulnerabilities (e.g., reentrancy, overflow/underflow).
- Experience with testing frameworks for smart contracts, including unit testing and integration testing.
- Knowledge of blockchain analytics tools and the ability to interpret on-chain data for development decisions.
- Excellent time management skills to balance multiple tasks and meet project deadlines.
- Ability to present technical solutions to non-technical stakeholders in a clear and concise manner.
- Experience with blockchain-based projects that require high levels of security, scalability, and user engagement.
- Strong understanding of decentralized finance (DeFi) concepts and their implementation in smart contracts.
- Excellent adaptability to learn and apply new technologies, protocols, and development practices in the blockchain space.
