Experience with scalable web-based cloud-hosted solutions is also highly convenient. The candidate will be responsible for the integration of blockchain technology with RESTful and Cloud hosted solutions. For instance, contextual information gathered from FIWARE Context Broker (a middleware that promotes publish/subscribe mechanism), external databases or IoT devices will have to be mapped into blocks stored in the blockchain. Therefore, it is necessary that the candidate is aware of different protocols and middleware that enable the connection / consumption of standard HTTP-based interfaces or SQL/NoSQL data repositories in order to populate the blockchain, then extract information from it and return it back to the traditional more centralized Cloud-based architectures. The candidate could work for a PhD degree in the areas of Blockchain and food waste management mixing centralized and decentralized software architectures.
