Develop and optimize CI/CD pipelines, observability stacks, alerting systems, and incident response processes to ensure high-quality code delivery.
-
Oversee bare-metal and cloud-based infrastructure, balancing performance, cost, and security for decentralized systems and blockchain nodes.
-
Implement strong security measures, including access controls (SSO, 2FA, VPNs), endpoint protection, and intrusion detection across cloud and physical servers.
-
Support mechanisms to minimize network spam and boost validator incentives through efficient block space allocation.
-

Proficiency in building CI/CD pipelines, observability tools, alerting systems, and incident management workflows.
-
Extensive experience with container technologies (Docker, Kubernetes) and Linux system administration (monitoring, troubleshooting, optimization).
-
Familiarity with blockchain nodes and decentralized infrastructure.
Nice to Haves
-
Experience operating validator nodes at scale within a blockchain ecosystem.
-
Expertise in networking stack optimizations for high-throughput transactions.
-
Proficiency with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools (e.g., Terraform, Ansible).
Why Join?
-
Be the first DevOps hire at a pioneering startup shaping the future of liquid staking and decentralized technology.
-
Work remotely with a distributed team passionate about innovation and collaboration.
