Blockchain Deployment Training for Engineers
We're running practical workshops for software engineers who want to stop reading about blockchain and start actually deploying it. Our curriculum walks through real infrastructure challenges that companies face when moving from prototype to production in the South Korean market.
Finding Your Learning Path
Not everyone comes in with the same background. We use a decision-tree approach in the first two weeks to help you figure out which technical track makes sense based on what you already know.
Technical Assessment
We start with a practical coding exercise. Nothing theoretical—just build a simple smart contract and deploy it locally. This shows us where you're comfortable.
Infrastructure Review
Then we look at your experience with cloud deployment, CI/CD pipelines, and monitoring. Different paths if you've done DevOps versus pure application development.
Track Selection
Based on results, you'll focus either on smart contract architecture or deployment infrastructure. Both groups work on the same final project from different angles.
Real Projects Matter
Last year, one participant came from traditional backend work at a Seoul fintech company. She'd never touched blockchain before but had solid distributed systems knowledge.
We put her on the infrastructure track. By month five, she was debugging consensus issues in a test network that stumped some of the smart contract folks. Different starting points, but everyone contributes something valuable.
How the Program Flows
Eight months might sound long, but blockchain infrastructure isn't something you pick up in a weekend bootcamp. Here's how we break it down into manageable phases.
Foundations and Assessment
Get everyone up to speed on blockchain basics. Run the decision-tree process. Start working with test networks and understand how nodes communicate.
Core Technical Skills
Contract track focuses on Solidity and security patterns. Infrastructure track digs into node operation, monitoring, and scaling strategies. Both groups meet weekly to share progress.
Integration and Testing
Start building the final project. Contract developers write the logic, infrastructure people set up the deployment pipeline. This is where theory meets reality and things break.
Production Deployment
Deploy to a public testnet, then mainnet with real (small) transactions. Debug issues, optimize costs, document everything. Present your work to the cohort and guest reviewers.
Who Actually Teaches This
We rotate instructors based on which phase you're in. Everyone teaching has deployed blockchain systems in production—not just academic or consulting experience.
Instructors
Daeshim Hawthorne
Infrastructure Lead
Spent three years running validator nodes for a DeFi protocol. Handles the DevOps and scaling modules.
Bora Lindqvist
Contract Architecture
Audited contracts for Seoul-based startups. Teaches security patterns and gas optimization techniques.
Joonho Bergström
Integration Specialist
Built API layers connecting traditional systems to blockchain. Covers the messy middle ground between old and new tech.
Minji Caldwell
Testing & QA
Developed testing frameworks for smart contracts. Joins during integration phase when everything starts breaking.
