Senior Technology Consultant - Blockchain & Integration SME

Job Opportunity

Firstly, thank you again for your support on the previous proposal (eDocs and Digital Credentials). We've now submitted it and had a clarification call this morning. As expected, the competition includes the usual Big Four firms, SIs, and a couple of boutiques. Our proposition stands out as highly differentiated, particularly due to our partner-led approach (including legal experts, crypto academics, and yourselves), which provides both depth of expertise and a level of commercial flexibility that is, in my view, unmatched. On that note, we've been invited to tender for another proposal with the same government legal entity. This opportunity is related to the previous one but is more focused on the development of an existing blockchain-based data exchange platform. I am therefore looking to engage 1–2 contractors (need not be based in the UK) with the following skillsets:

• Deep understanding of blockchain, identity (OAuth frameworks), and decentralized cryptography
• Strong experience with enterprise integration patterns and middleware
• Knowledge of interoperability across global trade systems
• Familiarity with customs, logistics, and digital trade ecosystems

Ideally, this would be a senior individual who can quickly contribute to design activities. The work is not implementation-focused at this stage, but rather a strategic engagement aimed at expanding platform use cases. For context, the project scope spans both technical and non-technical areas, including legal frameworks, governance, and change management so the identified personal should be comfortable working in a multi-skillset project environment.
