- Write the description. Start from the blockchain engineer job description template, then check it with the job description checker: the pay, the place of work and the must-haves should be clear before the second paragraph.
- Decide where the person can work. 50% of today’s blockchain engineer postings are remote and 5% hybrid. If yours is remote, name the countries or time zones; “remote” alone brings applications you cannot accept.
