To safely collect, transport and anti-doping tests is a multi-facetted challenge, and whenever the anti-doping market takes a leap forward, so do the opposing team. At the moment, the industry isn’t in a comfortable lead anymore, and that’s where you come in! If you want to help secure the chain-of-custody in international doping testing, and have domain knowledge in mobile software development, back-ends with blockchain and digital identities, then you may well be our match made in heaven.


Job description (vs. challenges):

For Validicity, the next stage involves the evolution from conceptual development and prototyping work, into testing, and a full-scale roll-out and market introduction. Your role will be to take responsibility of the technical implementation of the software layer and its supporting processing. Your task will be to lead the creation of a data collection app, instantiate a public ledger (on the block chain) and a corresponding software solution to read the posted data.

 

Offering

We offer you a full-time position with us (part-time could work). Ultimately, making doping tests secure is a democracy issue, where countries and organizations with extensive resources shouldn’t be given an unfair advantage compared to other nations’ representatives or other groups of athletes. We hope you both want to indulge in the latest in immutable logging and want to contribute to a true and pure sports industry, free from use of illegal substances and supplements.

 

Skills/Requirements

We expect you to lead a small team, initially with you and another developer; a mixed environment of back-ends, a blockchain solution, front-end, and mobile; to know programming; c/c++/c#/dart/basic javascript and HTML. You feel comfortable in working with shared on-line repositories (github/bitbucket), versioning schemes, automated testing and efficient documentation methology.

Working at
Validicity AB

Background The 2014 winter Olympics in Sochi is unfortunately known for a huge doping scandal, creating a debate on how to increase the secure chain of custody within in the anti-doping industry. Validicity AB was initiated by the Arne Ljungqvist Foundation to actively combat anti-doping in human sports, by developing a new hardware solution combined with a blockchain-based system creating a secure supply chain (https://www.arneljungqvist.com/). A team of experts was brought together with deep knowledge in their respective field in order to solve this challenge and develop the future chain of custody in anti-doping. The first market segment of the company is for doping control in human sports, followed by an equestrian sports segment. A third segment will be solutions addressing work-place testing operations. Expanding the system, Validicity can basically serve any vertical that needs a secure supply chain such as pharma, food, toxic waste and high-end goods. Since the company was founded in the beginning of February 2018, a first functional prototype has been developed, a European patent application has been filed and parts of the team attended the WADA conference initiating talks with potential customers and partners. Business Idea Validicity offers a solution for a complete secure chain of custody combining a digital solution (NFC, Block-chain & Cloud storage technology) with a mechanical device (bottle / bottle tops / packaging) creating a transparent and tamper-proof system.
