Blockchain Engineer

<div class="trix-content"> <h2>Overview</h2> <p>We are building a cutting-edge AI-powered blockchain analytics platform focused on the Solana ecosystem. Our platform processes millions of on-chain transactions in real time to deliver wallet intelligence, token health metrics, anomaly detection, predictive insights, and AI-driven smart alerts for traders and institutions. Our infrastructure powers low-latency streaming systems, large-scale analytics databases, and machine learning services operating continuously across distributed environments.<br><br><br></p> <h2>Responsibilities</h2> <ol><li>Blockchain Data Engineering</li></ol> <ul> <li>Develop and maintain Solana blockchain ingestion systems</li> <li>Work with Solana Validator and Geyser plugins-</li> <li>Parse and decode on-chain transactions, logs, and program instructions-</li> <li>Implement reliable block, transaction, and account indexing pipelines-</li> <li>Handle slot tracking, forks, and reorg scenarios</li> </ul> <ol><li>On-Chain Intelligence Development</li></ol> <ul> <li>Decode SPL token transfers and major Solana DeFi protocols-</li> <li>Build logic for:<ul> <li>wallet activity tracking-</li> <li>token movement analysis-</li> <li>liquidity and trading behavior detection-</li> </ul> </li> <li>Design derived blockchain datasets for analytics and AI models-</li> <li>Collaborate with data engineers to publish structured events into streaming systems</li> </ul> <ol><li>Protocol &amp; Ecosystem Integration</li></ol> <ul> <li>Integrate data from Solana programs (DEXs, liquidity pools, NFT protocols)</li> <li>Maintain program decoder libraries</li> <li>Monitor protocol upgrades and ecosystem changes</li> <li>Optimize blockchain querying and indexing performance</li> </ul> <ol><li>Platform Collaboration</li></ol> <ul> <li>Work with backend engineers on real-time processing pipelines</li> <li>Collaborate with DevOps teams on validator deployment and performance tuning</li> <li>Support ML teams with structured blockchain datasets</li> <li>Participate in architecture discussions and technical planning</li> </ul> <p><br><br></p> <h2>Qualifications</h2> <ul> <li>3+ years software engineering experience</li> <li>Hands-on experience working within the Solana blockchain ecosystem</li> <li>Strong understanding of:<ul> <li>Solana accounts model</li> <li>transactions &amp; instructions</li> <li>SPL Token program</li> <li>RPC &amp; WebSocket APIs</li> </ul> </li> <li>Experience building blockchain integrations or payment systems</li> <li>Experience with Rust, Go, or TypeScript</li> <li>Understanding of secure transaction handling and confirmations</li> </ul> <p><br><br></p> <h2>Additional details</h2> <p>We’re building a real-time analytics platform for the Solana ecosystem. You’ll design and implement low-latency data ingestion and processing pipelines that power for smart alerts (real-time notifications), wallet Intelligence (behavioral scoring, flow tracking, smart money detection), token Health Metrics (liquidity, holders, manipulation indicators), anomaly Detection (fraud / rug pull / wash trading signals), predictive Insights (ML-driven probability forecasts).</p> </div> When applying, mention the word CANDYSHOP to show you read the job post completely.
