Role Description

We are hiring on behalf of our client, a high-growth software company supporting the development of a premier open-source, EVM-compatible public ledger built for global enterprise and Web3 use cases. They are currently hiring a Senior Site Reliability Engineer for their "greenfield" enterprise-focused team. This team is building a private and consortium distributed ledger platform designed specifically for sectors with high security and privacy requirements, such as financial services, healthcare, and supply chain.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role where you will own the design, deployment, and reliability of mission-critical, multi-region infrastructure. This is not a traditional support role; they are looking for an engineer who has operated real systems at scale and is eager to take end-to-end ownership of architecture and operational standards from the ground up.

Key Responsibilities

• Systems Architecture: Design and operate highly available, multi-region distributed systems with rigorous recovery strategies (RTO/RPO).
• Infrastructure as Code: Own large-scale IaC using Terraform, developing reusable modules and multi-account patterns with policy guardrails.
• Kubernetes Orchestration: Scale production environments (EKS, GKE, or AKS) utilizing GitOps (ArgoCD), Helm, and strict network policies.
• CI/CD Leadership: Build secure pipelines supporting blue/green and canary deployments, artifact signing (SBOM), and automated rollback strategies.
• SRE Advocacy: Define and improve SLOs, error budgets, and observability metrics to drive measurable reductions in MTTR.
• Collaboration: Partner with the Head of SRE and VP of Engineering to translate complex business requirements into reliable, secure platform services.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience in SRE, Platform Engineering, or Infrastructure Engineering operating production distributed systems.
• Multi-Cloud Mastery: Deep expertise in AWS or GCP, with experience running multi-region production environments and disaster recovery testing.
• Containerization: Hands-on experience with Kubernetes at scale, including GitOps workflows and production-grade security controls.
• Security Mindset: Strong background in Zero Trust principles, secrets management (Vault), and compliance frameworks (SOC 2, HIPAA, or NIST).
• Tooling: Extensive experience with Terraform-first infrastructure in large-scale, real-world environments.

Nice to Have

• Experience with distributed ledger technology (DLT) or blockchain systems, particularly private/consortium deployments.
• Familiarity with EVM-based systems and smart contract tooling (Solidity, Hardhat).
• Experience operating active-active, globally distributed architectures.
• Background in supporting financial services or other highly regulated industries.

Benefits

• Competitive base salary with Performance Bonuses.
• Equity and Token participation.
• 401k and comprehensive health insurance (for US-based employees).
• The opportunity to build a "greenfield" platform from scratch within a stable, venture-backed organization.
• Work on infrastructure that powers the world’s leading organizations across multiple sectors.
