- Lead workshops and requirement-gathering sessions focusing on real-world public infrastructure digitization.
Risk & Governance
- Proactively manage risks around scalability, privacy (e.g., ZKPs, DID), and network performance.
- Monitor evolving compliance landscapes, including blockchain data sovereignty and legal enforceability of smart contracts.
Quality Assurance & UAT

- Knowledge of decentralized identity (DID), Verifiable Credentials, and token standards (ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155).
- Solid experience with Agile/Scrum, including running sprints, retrospectives, and planning sessions.
Desired Eligibility
- Certification in Blockchain Project Management, PMP, Scrum Master, or equivalent.
