GreenTech Frontend Developer – Blockchain

Blockchain isn’t something traditionally associated with climate impact and making a positive difference. More than a few would argue that anything blockchain linked could deliver a positive environmental or social impact.
But there’s an important argument to be made – in regard to greenwashing – for the transparency that blockchain can bring to the table.
It’s an undeniably exciting and interesting field of work with immense potential. Some see it as the next coming of the internet, Web 3.0 – ‘oooooh’, ‘aaaahh’…
But there are tangible examples of companies using blockchain to illuminate their supply chains, measure and then address, in terms of emissions and product sustainability. That’s not to be sniffed at.
Here we have a company making it easier for socially and environmentally driven individuals to find opportunities in their desired fields. To find jobs, projects and companies delivering the impact they seek.
Their platform enables people to search for projects and job roles, whether permanent, freelance or volunteering, the world over, and apply. The blockchain element enables them and the business or group to show what is achieved, a completed portfolio of work or outcomes, demonstrating their credentials and action to protect them against the heckles of greenwashing.
The company are globally dispersed with their base in Japan, but people spread around the world from India to the US.
The teams are driven by their passion for social and environmental action and have decades of experience helping refugees, working on renewables projects, tackling injustice and walking a path towards a healthier planet and society.
In terms of skills they’re looking for, Javascript or Typescript, React and NodeJS will stand out.
Following that, they use Solidity and Haskell with Cardano and Milkomedia and are Ethereum compatible so any exp touching those is great. And testing or automation experience to help establish an infrastructure that’s scalable on an international level will jump out, too. They want their platform to benefit companies, NGOs and motivated people around the world, creating communities that can amplify their impacts.
In terms of Infrastructure, they’re using AWS, with some GraphQL and are hoping to integrate algorithms and data structures to make it easier for folks to find work that matches their skills and experience.
They’re tackling problems that, so far, have only had local or regional solutions with limited reach or too niche a focus. If you’re keen to solve problems that have scaled and growing benefits for our one and only planet and its most prolific species, please hit apply.
