Role Summary

This is a remote position.

Our client is building the infrastructure that enables humanitarian organizations to use stablecoins without requiring blockchain expertise.

Rather than building another wallet or payment application, we're creating an orchestration layer that connects donors, NGOs, compliance providers, blockchain networks, regulated financial institutions, and local payout providers through a single API.

Blockchain is the infrastructure—not the product.

Build and complete several core platform components, including

  • Off-chain audit records
  • Donor reporting dashboard
  • Treasury workflows
  • Local off-ramp integrations
  • Payment orchestration APIs
  • Blockchain Engineering
  • Develop and integrate secure smart contracts using audited standards such as OpenZeppelin

Expand the chain abstraction layer across

  • Ethereum
  • Stellar
  • Arbitrum
  • Base
  • Tempo
  • Support both EVM and non-EVM blockchain ecosystems
  • Transaction Security

Design and implement

  • Transaction approval workflows
  • Operational guardrails
  • Secure wallet interactions
  • Risk controls
  • Blockchain transaction monitoring (e.g., Chainalysis or similar)

Experience implementing

  • Encryption
  • RBAC
  • Audit logging
  • Secure key management
  • Production-grade security practices
  • Language

Professional working proficiency in Arabic for collaboration with partners and stakeholders across Arabic-speaking operating regions.

Responsibilities

Our platform orchestrates the complete payment workflow, including

  • Funding and treasury management
  • Compliance and sanctions screening
  • On-chain transactions
  • Reporting and audit trails
  • Beneficiary payouts
  • Local off-ramp integrations

We integrate best-in-class providers for custody, compliance, blockchain connectivity, and financial settlement instead of replacing existing financial infrastructure.

  • Production Readiness
  • Production hardening and infrastructure improvements
  • Encryption at rest and in transit
