Everledger is hiring a

Senior Blockchain Engineer - Brisbane

At Everledger, we are committed to making the world a better place. Our purpose is to contribute to greater transparency, trust, sustainability as well as amazing customer experiences in marketplaces where provenance matters most.

This is a key role that will assist our global team in the creation of an Australian critical minerals blockchain pilot. The blockchain pilot will investigate how blockchain technology can be used to create a ‘digital certification’ for critical minerals throughout the extraction and movement phases. This will help companies in the sector to ensure adherence to compliance regulations and increase the demand for Australian products in global markets, while also simplifying the process and lowering costs.

The related problem to be solved by this project is that the race for rare earths and critical minerals is “on” and in high demand as they are the essential building blocks for clean energy technologies of the future. Today’s electric vehicle batteries, electronics batteries, wind turbines, charging stations, solar panels, and transmission lines cannot be built without copper, lithium, nickel or cobalt, and other critical minerals. And this blockchain pilot has the potential to provide solutions to regulators, OEMs, and manufacturers.

This exciting blockchain pilot will strengthen domestic mineral supply chains, reduce the reliance on foreign minerals, and minimize carbon emissions. The pilot will be conducted across Australia with key partners such as CSIRO and Data61 and coordinated from Everledger’s Brisbane base.
