Contract Listener (Blockchain Event Ingestion Service)

Overview

An uptime-critical NestJS service that listens to smart-contract events and keeps downstream systems in sync.

Problem

On-chain events must be captured reliably; missed events can leave internal state inconsistent or stale.

Solution

Implemented an event ingestion service with resilient configuration and deployment patterns. Integrated secure environment management and Kubernetes delivery workflows.

Impact

Improved reliability of on-chain event capture and enabled a clear separation of ingestion responsibilities from API/services.
