Develop secure, permissioned DLT protocols for institutional-grade security tokens (STOs), sukuk, and REITs.
-
Implement multi-tenant issuance portals with investor whitelisting, tiered KYC onboarding, and regulatory screening mechanisms.
-
Establish decentralized compliance automation for CBB Rulebook governance, identity verification, secondary market controls, and AML logic.
-
Lead integration of atomic settlement engines and programmable dividends backed by time-locked smart contracts.
-
Design token bridge mechanisms between Bahrain Bourse, custodians, and regional GCC exchanges.
-
Integrate e-wallets for institutional and retail investors with regulatory-compliant self-custody and asset recovery modules.
Ideal Candidate:
-
12+ years in fintech infrastructure, DLT engineering, or tokenization platforms.
-
Hands-on expertise in Solidity, Substrate, Hyperledger Besu, or Quorum-based smart contract environments.
-
Strong understanding of capital markets, CSD/CCP mechanisms, and securities post-trade lifecycle.
-
Track record of implementing real-world tokenized asset platforms under regulatory scrutiny.
-
Familiarity with the Central Bank of Bahrain’s regulatory regime and Bahrain Fintech Bay ecosystem.
-
Degree in Cryptographic Systems, Computer Science, Financial Regulation, or Blockchain Law.
