The Shenzhen Fintech Research Institute is seeking blockchain talent, the institute’s recent job posting has revealed.

The institute was jointly established by the People’s Bank of China (PBoC), the Shenzhen Municipal Financial Regulatory Bureau, and the Futian District People's Government. It aims to undertake projects related to fintech and digital currency initiated by the PBoC and the Shenzhen municipal government.

CoinDesk reported that the institute has posted 29 job openings via the recruitment website Lagou.com. Three of these require blockchain-related expertise.

In particular, the institute is seeking a blockchain development engineer, a blockchain architect and a senior technical expert. These positions are tasked with the development and optimization of a distributed network capable of delivering “large scale transactions.”

The requirements for these roles include “expertise on fundamental blockchain protocol development, knowledge of public blockchains, as well as experience in distributed network, smart contract and peer-to-peer protocols,” CoinDesk stated.

In addition, the institute is also seeking a cryptography engineer who will focus on the development of cryptography-related software and hardware products.

Last year, the institute trialed the Bay Area Blockchain Trade Finance platform with a number of major banks in the country.

Recently, the PBoC was also looking for blockchain and legal personnel for continuing the development of the central bank digital currency project.
