  • Design and implement components of a digital asset custody platform, including signing pipeline services, policy evaluation engines, and chain adapter integrations across EVM and non-EVM networks
  • Architect, deploy, and manage scalable applications using AWS cloud services across the full software development lifecycle
  • Drive team adoption of enterprise-authorized AI-assisted engineering practices — including AI-assisted code review, refactoring, test strategy acceleration, and incident root-cause analysis — while establishing consistent validation standards for secure coding, peer review, and automated testing
  • Apply knowledge of Software Development Life Cycle toolchain capabilities, including enterprise-authorized AI-assisted development and automation tools, to improve the value realized through automation and delivery speed
  • Contribute to software engineering communities of practice and events that explore new and emerging technologies
