Senior Blockchain Consultant/Architect - Java/API/Microservices - Remote

We're hiring a Senior Blockchain Consultant/Architect to join a high-profile technology programme focused on delivering next-generation solutions in the financial services sector. This initiative is centred around the design and development of decentralised applications using advanced distributed ledger technologies. The project will support large-scale financial institutions and global organisations, helping to build transparent, secure, and scalable systems that reflect the evolving demands of the industry.

In this role, you will take ownership of the technical architecture from end to end. You'll be responsible for designing secure, cloud-native systems that are distributed, scalable, and aligned to best engineering practices. You'll lead the definition of architecture for blockchain-based platforms, guide development teams through implementation, and ensure seamless integration with APIs and microservices. You will also work closely with business and client teams to shape solutions through technical workshops and solution planning sessions. Your ability to convert high-level requirements into practical, enterprise-grade engineering outcomes will be essential.

To succeed, you'll need strong expertise in blockchain technologies such as Ethereum, Hyperledger Fabric, Corda, or DAML, alongside solid experience with Java development, microservice architecture, and API design. A good understanding of cloud platforms, particularly AWS, is required, as is a working knowledge of distributed systems and security best practices. Familiarity with agile development methodologies and experience in regulated industries such as financial services would be advantageous.

This is a full-time, freelance position offering long-term prosperity.

This is a critical role on a fast-moving project. Please apply immediately if you feel you are a good fit.
