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.
