- Smart Contracts:
- Deployment and Interaction: Ability to deploy and interact with smart contracts on various networks.
- Troubleshooting: Understanding common smart contract issues and how to diagnose them (e.g., gas limits, transaction failures, reentrancy attacks, oracle dependencies).
- Security Audits: Basic understanding of smart contract security vulnerabilities and audit reports.
- System Administration & DevOps:
- Operating Systems: Proficiency in Linux/Unix environments for server management.
- Containerization & Orchestration: Experience with Docker and Kubernetes for deploying and managing blockchain applications and nodes.
- Cloud Platforms: Experience with major cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP) for deploying and scaling blockchain infrastructure.
- Networking: Strong understanding of network protocols, firewalls, and secure network configurations relevant to distributed systems.
- Monitoring & Alerting:
- Blockchain Explorers: Proficiency in using blockchain explorers (e.g., Etherscan) for transaction analysis and network monitoring.
- Specialized Tools: Experience with blockchain-specific monitoring tools and metrics for node health, transaction throughput, and network congestion.
- General Monitoring Tools: Familiarity with traditional monitoring tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, Splunk, ELK stack) for infrastructure and application performance.
