    Mentor junior engineers, conduct code reviews, and share best practices to promote knowledge sharing and professional growth within the team.

    We do NOT expect a candidate to know every single language or framework mentioned above, although strong experience with Svelte and/or React is necessary.

    The ideal candidate is a good specialist who can flex across various stacks and be competent at picking up new frameworks where deemed necessary.

    Experience and / or desire to learn blockchain interactive JS / TS libraries such as , CosmJS.

    Experience with digital identity, especially self-sovereign identity, standards/implementations such as Decentralised Identifiers (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials (VCs), or Hyperledger Indy/Aries is desirable.

    If you don't have prior experience, you must have a solid drive to learn how to build blockchain applications.

    You are genuinely passionate about blockchain and privacy-preserving technology such as self-sovereign identity (SSI)

    You want to be a part of the innovation that is orchestrated by blockchain, digital identity, self-sovereign identity, fintech or DeFi.

    Delivery of web services and optimisations improving the overall developer experience of Creds.
    Consistently providing critical analysis on peers' code
    Demonstrating a commitment to open-sourcing code and contributing to the community
    cheqd is a ground-breaking startup in the space of self-sovereign identity (SSI).

    SSI is a new paradigm for exchanging trusted digital data related to people, companies, and things in a much more secure and privacy-preserving fashion that puts people in control of their data.

    Our mission is to make digital identity more accessible, inclusive, and commercially sustainable. Our core product is a blockchain network that makes exchanging and paying for trusted data easy, inclusive, and secure.

    We built this core on blockchain technology, as we believe no single company should be in control of such critical Web infrastructure.

    Our vision is that this new form of digital identity applies beyond just the financial industry and will be transformative for almost every industry sector imaginable.

    Through our network, anyone can verify identities quickly and securely with the ability for organisations to check the data to be compensated for their work.

    Our differentiator is that our software rewards all parties involved in a trusted data ecosystem: from the individuals the data belongs to, the reputable organisations that issue and receive digital credentials, and the blockchain node operators on cheqd's network that facilitate value exchange in a decentralised and democratic manner.

    Whilst commercial viability is key, this can't be to the detriment of inclusion, privacy and sustainability, which we will uphold as principles.

    We have published content through our blog , YouTube channel , X/Twitter , and Telegram . Diversity & Inclusion

    At cheqd, we celebrate differences, believe that inclusion is critical to our success and that diversity brings value, and seek to recruit, develop and retain the most talented people from a diverse candidate pool.

    Please let us know if you require any accommodations during the recruitment process.

    We are open to supporting candidates working remotely anywhere worldwide as long as they can be satisfied under applicable employment laws.
