You will collaborate closely with development teams across the business, enabling them to build, deliver, and run their services with confidence. Your team acts as a platform and enabler: championing observability, promoting engineering best practices, and driving innovation while optimizing infrastructure for cost, performance, and reliability.
We are looking for a proactive and disciplined engineer who thrives on ownership and continuous improvement. You should treat infrastructure as a product, thinking in terms of scalability, performance, maintainability, and developer experience. You will balance speed with stability, prioritize work that adds the most value, automate repetitive tasks, and help other teams enhance their performance. Strong communication skills, collaboration across teams, a strong sense of accountability, intellectual curiosity, and a security-first mindset are essential.
Key Responsibilities:
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines and GitOps workflows across a diverse set of engineering teams (Blockchain, Frontend, Backend, iOS, Android, QA).
- Own observability (monitoring, alerting, logging) and support development teams in instrumenting their services.
- Participate in incident response and drive post-incident reviews and actions.
- Optimize infrastructure for security, cost, performance, and reliability.
- Partner with engineering teams on new product launches and innovative DeFi solutions.
Job Requirements:
- Strong Kubernetes experience across the ecosystem (Helm, Istio, Kustomize) and hands-on AWS experience (EKS, EC2, VPC, IAM, RDS, S3, ElastiCache, MSK).
- Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines and GitOps tooling (GitHub Actions, Flux CD, or similar).
- Hands-on experience with secrets and access management (HashiCorp Vault, RBAC, least-privilege).
- Solid understanding of the SRE framework (SLIs, SLOs, error budgets) and experience setting up observability tooling (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, VictoriaMetrics, or similar).
- Proficient in infrastructure-as-code with Terraform or similar.
- Working knowledge of edge computing and CDN (CloudFront, Cloudflare, WAF, caching).
- Proven on-call and incident response experience.
- Clear communicator, collaborative by nature, and comfortable in a distributed international team.
Nice-to-Haves:
- Working knowledge of one or more programming languages and tooling ecosystems (Go, Node.js, Python).
- Experience working with blockchain, smart contracts, decentralized finance (DeFi).
