Senior Scala/Python/Type Script Backend Engineer

Aspiring web3 developer coming from a traditional web2 backend background. I've participated (and won some bounties) in ETHDenver for 2 years, my most recent project was using Oasis Sapphire as our confidential computing chain to create a dapp to allow users to play a verifiably fair game of on chain poker. 

I'm looking to enhance my blockchain skills and transition my career into the web3 world because I find the work to be much more interesting than a more traditional web2 job.

I have been programming in Scala for my 3 most recent jobs, however I'm absolutely open to other languages (Python, TypeScript, Rust), especially since Scala is more niche. I'd love the opportunity to learn Rust, but it hasn't been the best fit for my personal projects, so on paper I am most qualified for Scala/Python/TypeScript.

I followed a Udemy course for Solidity programming, I'd be interested in learning more and perhaps getting a Smart Contract developer role, or something more akin to a backend position.

I've been interested in crypto since 2016, and I'd love to be a part of the industry so I can work on things I find valuable to our society.
