• Run regression, smoke, and edge-case testing before chain upgrades and releases
• Collaborate with dApp QA teams to ensure downstream products stability
• Document test results, issues, and edge cases in a clear, maintainable way
• Participate in Agile planning and represent QA in sprint discussions and release readiness
• Think critically and take initiative to improve the chain’s quality — going beyond scripted tasks to identify risks, suggest improvements, and challenge assumptions

Requirements

• 4+ years of experience in QA or SDET roles
• 2+ years of hands-on blockchain testing — ideally with Cosmos SDK or other L1/L2 networks
• Strong Go and Python skills — must be able to write tests and debug core chain logic
• Experience validating systems via CLI, RPC, and transaction-level flows
• Solid understanding of the crypto ecosystem — including staking, governance, validators, and decentralized protocols
• Strong QA mindset — able to think critically, anticipate edge cases, challenge assumptions, and prioritize risk effectively
• Passion for clean, reliable systems — and a curiosity to deeply understand how they work, evolve, and can fail
• Comfortable working independently, taking ownership, and seeing tasks through

Benefits

• Opportunity to work at the forefront of blockchain technology
• Collaborative and innovative work environment
• Flexible working hours
• Chance to make a direct impact on a major Web3 platform
• Support for continuous learning and professional development
