Validator

The Validator role at Three Percent is a specialized position focused on ensuring precision and integrity within blockchain and distributed ledger environments. This role demands expertise in validating complex technologies such as consensus algorithms, smart contracts, and cryptographic protocols to enforce compliance and accuracy in transaction processing. The Validator carries out meticulous verification procedures that support network security, operational stability, and regulatory adherence. This position requires a professional with at least two years of experience in the validation process, specifically including final expense validation, to guarantee that all validations meet established standards and compliance requirements. The role operates independently without direct team management responsibilities but requires proactive collaboration with cross-functional units to uphold robust validation standards. The Validator applies advanced technical knowledge across network security, cryptography, node operation, and data validation frameworks to maintain the integrity of blockchain activities. The role involves careful oversight of blockchain node setup, monitoring network traffic, and applying formal verification methods such as temporal logic to verify contract and transaction correctness. Additionally, Validators utilize compliance management tools and regulatory reporting software to ensure that all procedures align with applicable regulations and standards such as NIST Risk Management Framework and FISMA Compliance. Their systematic validation and auditing activities play a crucial role in risk assessment and audit management to protect the distributed ledger environment from inaccuracies and breaches.
