BlockOps Network
Project Description
: BlockOps Network provides blockchain node infrastructure services,
offering APIs and tools to seamlessly connect users to the web3
ecosystem. As the sole and Senior Backend Engineer, I implemented
critical features to optimize performance, security, and
scalability. This included payment processing, node deployment
automation, and secure authentication flows.
Technologies Used
-
Backend: Node.js (TypeScript), Express.js,
Redis
-
Database: MySQL, PostgreSQL
-
Authentication & Security: GitHub OAuth, Google
SSO, Custom SSH Key Pair Validation
-
Messaging/Queue: RabbitMQ
-
Infrastructure & Hosting: AWS, DigitalOcean,
Docker, Kubernetes
-
Payments: Stripe Integration (Subscription
models, Test Charges)
-
Documentation: Swagger UI
-
Web3: SSV Network Integration, Obol Network
Key Responsibilities
-
Stripe API Integration
Built robust payment flows, including test charges and
subscription models, to accommodate multiple platform plans.
Reduced payment errors by 15% and increased subscription
sign-ups by 10%.
-
Parachain Node Deployment
Streamlined deployment processes, cutting deployment time by
50%. Optimized queries for a 40% reduction in page load times.
-
OAuth & SSO Implementation
Integrated GitHub OAuth and Google SSO for secure user
authentication. Achieved a 30% decrease in unauthorized access
attempts.
-
Migration & Infrastructure Optimization
Transitioned core API services from AWS to DigitalOcean,
reducing infrastructure costs by 20%. Enhanced GCP service
account permissions, decreasing security vulnerabilities by 30%.
-
Microservices & SSH Key Management
Developed custom functions to validate SSH key pairs and verify
SSH connections for seamless infrastructure integration. Set up
RabbitMQ for efficient asynchronous messaging between services.
-
Swagger & API Documentation
Created user-friendly Swagger UI for backend services. Authored
comprehensive API documentation, easing third-party
integrations.
-
SSV Network Integration
Successfully integrated SSV network into Mission Control (node
deployment) and Telescope (monitoring & observability). Earned a
$20k grant from SSV for delivering high-value features and
performance optimizations.
Outcome
: By implementing payment services, strengthening security, and
adding web3 integrations (such as SSV and Obol), the BlockOps
platform now delivers a smoother, more efficient user experience.
Node deployments are faster and more reliable, while robust
authentication and subscription options enhance monetization
potential. These improvements, alongside a $20k SSV grant,
underscore the project’s success in bridging traditional and
decentralized infrastructures with reliability and scale.
