As a DevOps Engineer, you’ll be responsible for building, deploying, and maintaining resilient cloud infrastructure to support our blockchain ecosystem. This role requires deep expertise in cloud-native technologies, infrastructure as code (IaC), automation, and Rust-based systems.

You will work closely with blockchain engineers, Rust developers, and security teams to ensure our decentralized applications run smoothly, securely, and efficiently.

Key Responsibilities

Your duties will vary but here are a few examples of the type of work you’ll be doing;

Infrastructure Automation & Management

Design, implement, and maintain cloud-based infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or self-hosted).
Use Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform, Pulumi, or CloudFormation.
Automate deployments, monitoring, and scaling with CI/CD pipelines.

Rust-Based Systems Optimisation

Work closely with Rust developers to optimise performance and security of infrastructure supporting Rust-based applications.
Debug and improve networking, logging, and containerised Rust applications.

CI/CD & Deployment Pipelines

Design and maintain automated deployment pipelines for Rust-based services.
Optimise containerisation strategies using Docker, Kubernetes, and Nomad.
Integrate GitOps workflows for continuous delivery.

Monitoring & Incident Response

Set up and maintain observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog).
Implement logging and tracing (OpenTelemetry, Loki, Elastic Stack).
Participate in on-call rotations to resolve incidents quickly.

What We’re Looking For

Must-Have Skills & Experience

3+ years of DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), or Cloud Engineering experience.
Rust experience: Familiarity with debugging, optimizing, and supporting Rust-based applications.
Expertise in cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and container orchestration (Kubernetes, Nomad).
Strong knowledge of CI/CD tools (GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, Jenkins).
Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) (Terraform, Pulumi, Ansible).
Deep understanding of Linux systems, networking, and security.
Experience setting up monitoring, logging, and alerting systems.

Nice-to-Have (Bonus Points!)

Experience with Bitcoin, Ethereum, or blockchain infrastructure.
Knowledge of zero-knowledge cryptography & privacy-enhancing technologies.
Proficiency in distributed systems & high-performance computing.
Familiarity with Rust async runtimes (Tokio, async-std) and embedded Rust.
