• Content Creation: Develop proofs of concept (PoCs), sample dApps, and smart contracts using Solidity and native services to showcase capabilities in climate finance.
• Community Engagement: Actively engage with the developer community across multiple channels (online forums, conferences, hackathons), and create educational content (e.g., video tutorials, podcasts).

• Blockchain Understanding: A strong understanding of blockchain protocols, Web3 APIs, bridges, oracles, custodians, and overall dApp architecture.
• Sustainability Passion: Deep passion for sustainability and a strong interest in using blockchain technology to address climate change and environmental challenges.
• Climate Finance Knowledge: Strong understanding of climate finance, including carbon credits, renewable energy certificates, and environmental markets.
• ESG Expertise: Understanding of ESG reporting frameworks and how decentralized solutions can support transparency and trust.
• Technical Problem-Solving: Proven problem-solving abilities in debugging smart contracts and dApps built using Solidity or other blockchain-specific languages.
• Mindset: Entrepreneurial mindset, with the ability to act with high autonomy and direction.

Preferred Qualifications (Nice-to-Haves):

• Community Involvement: Active contributor to developer communities, GitHub repositories, or open-source projects.
• Public Skills: Public speaking and presentation skills (talks, demos, live coding sessions).
