About:

The start-up is a non-custodial, institutional grade, staking as a service provider. The business operates validators across a wide range of Proof-of-Stake protocols and allows institutional clients to delegate their assets using their preferred custodians in order to collect staking rewards. It charges a commission on the staking rewards for operating the validators and providing analytics and reporting.

The business’ differentiation is based on:

• Institutional grade security and compliance (e.g. permissioned validators)
• Superior transparency and analytics, including dashboard and reporting
• Processes designed with institutional workflow in mind

The Role:

As a DevOps Engineer, you will help build and maintain validators on Polygon / Solana / Avalanche / Near / Elrond / Polkadot / Algorand / Cosmos and other chains. You are ready to apply best practices for monitoring, observability, security, and infrastructure automation to the task of improving and expanding the multi-cloud hybrid platform used by our growing set of deployments.

We are looking for DevOps Engineers that have development and operational experience deploying, debugging, tuning, and maintaining large-scale Web deployments, high-performance, low-latency distributed applications, and container-based applications and microservices.

Responsibilities:

• Work to improve and maintain the reliability and availability of our services.
• Actively troubleshoot any issues that arise during testing and deployment, catching and solving issues before launch
• Manage code deployments, fixes, updates and related processes
• Build and maintain company-wide CI/CD pipelines for different projects (Github Actions)
• Deploy and maintain the blockchain infrastructure in a multi-cloud hybrid environment (AWS, Google Cloud, on-premise etc)
• Provide incident response and support for our production systems
• Monitor the infrastructure with tools like Grafana, Prometheus
• Ensure 99.99% system uptime, smooth operations and work with infra handling millions of request per second
• Continued technical growth through constant experimentation, learning, and rapid project iteration
• Continuously improve the infrastructure and the platform
• Participate in the on-call rota

Must have:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s Degree in Computer Science/Engineering/Software Engineering/relevant field OR 5+ years of progressive relevant experience
• 5+ years of experience in a DevOps/SRE Engineer role (or similar role)
• Strong experience with Linux-based infrastructure, and Linux/Unix system administration tasks
• Working knowledge of container environments along with container orchestration tools like Kubernetes
• Experience with monitoring tools like Grafana, Datadog, Prometheus, etc.
• Good knowledge of IaC tools like Terraform
• Knowledge of scripting languages (Bash is a must)
• Knowledge of systems programming languages like Golang and Python
• Extensive cloud experience and familiarity with configuring, scaling, tuning and monitoring the range of services (AWS/GCP/Azure)
• Experience producing operational and design documentation for the things you build, and writing post-mortem docs after troubleshooting service issues.
• Experience with continuous integration and continuous delivery tools, like Jenkins, GitHub Actions, etc.
• Any blockchain experience

Nice to have:

• Experience in software development and infrastructure development is a plus.
• Previous experience with deployment, running and maintaining Polygon / Solana / Avalanche / Near / Elrond / Polkadot / Algorand / Cosmos validators/nodes
• Experience of on-premise infrastructure
• GitOps
