Bank of America is looking for Ethereum developers
careers.bankofamerica.comI can't in any way see how this ad means they are looking for 'Ethereum developers' other than it being a desired skill. Please refrain from posting misleading titles to articles.
You have to understand that a lot of people is expecting to get rich with cryptos, so they need to create a lot of hype, even if that means fabricating false news from a job posting.
I don't give a damn how much they would pay, no way I'm working for Bank of America. They can suck it.
> Ethereum - Frontier/Solidity and IBM Hyperledger/Fabric
translation: IBM talked them into a pilot program using Hyperledger Fabric, which IIRC uses the smart contracts functionality from Ethereum.
No, it's not. It's just a desired skill, not a required one.
I wonder if this coincided with them joining the Ethereum Alliance?
BofA's been messing around with talk of various blockchainy projects for a while now, though little visible result beyond overexcited articles in the Bitcoin blogs.
The COBOL that's been running their systems for the last 50 years doesn't even have blog articles.
Lovely work on high tech new technology at an old fashioned Bank. Having worked at a financial institution with a bank, talk about generation gap...
So... they want to figure out how to cheat at smart contracts like they do with paper ones?
What's a midrange developer
A senior dev who's getting ripped off.
Someone who has more skills than a junior developer, but that you don't want to pay senior developer wages?
5 years of Ethereum development experience is longer than Ethereum has been around. These boilerplate Wanted ads won't attract developers with bleeding-edge skills.
The ad does not ask for 5 years of Ethereum development experience.
I don't think they're requiring 3-5 of ETH experience per this job posting, but that's not to say the recruiter doesn't inadvertently filter it out.
