- CI/CD Excellence: Own and optimize pipelines for backend, frontend, and smart contract codebases (GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, etc.), ensuring fast and observable deployments
- Reliability & Observability: Define SLO/SLIs and implement robust monitoring, logging, and alerting strategies using Prometheus, Grafana, and OpenTelemetry
- Security & Hardening: Implement network segmentation, secret management (Vault/KMS), and runtime hardening to protect against evolving threats
- Performance Tuning: Optimize autoscaling and network configurations for high-throughput workloads
- Incident Management: Establish disaster recovery plans, lead post-mortems, and proactively address root causes to minimize toil

- 6+ years of deep experience with AWS or GCP
- Expertise in IaC & Orchestration: Advanced proficiency in Terraform/Pulumi and hands-on experience managing Kubernetes and Docker at scale
- Security-First Mindset: Practical experience with IAM policies, HashiCorp Vault, and infrastructure security best practices
- Scripting Mastery: Strong coding skills in Python, Go, or Bash for automation
- Analytical Approach: Experience tuning production environments for latency-sensitive or financial workloads
- Experience supporting low-latency trading systems or real-time financial applications
- Familiarity with Blockchain infrastructure, node operations, and Web3 tooling
- Knowledge of Service Mesh (Istio/Linkerd) and zero-downtime deployment strategies (Canary/Blue-Green)
- Advanced Kubernetes tuning (Custom schedulers or CNI tuning)
- A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related technical field
- Remote-First Environment: Work from anywhere in the world with a high-trust, results-oriented team
- Competitive Compensation: A strong base salary and a comprehensive benefits package
- Token Equity: Unique upside through token grants on a sliding scale (customizable balance between salary and equity)
