Job Description

Senior Infrastructure Engineer

Somnia

Role Description We're looking for a Senior Infrastructure Engineer to build and run Somnia's key backend services: the L1 and node fleet, RPC and indexing layers, product backends, and developer-facing services teams depend on. An SRE-minded role: you make reliability measurable, rollouts safe, and infrastructure repeatable, so every team can move fast without breaking things. You treat infrastructure as a product: automate relentlessly, measure everything, and leverage AI to accelerate development, operations, and incident response. Key Responsibilities - Define and maintain SLOs, SLIs, and error budgets, plus the observability—metrics, logs, traces and alerts—that catches regressions before users do. - Build repeatable, self-service infrastructure through infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD and golden paths so teams can provision, deploy and recover without reinventing the wheel. - Own rollouts end-to-end—progressive delivery, canaries, safe migrations and clean rollbacks. - Operate the systems behind Somnia's nodes, validators, RPC and indexing, tuning for performance and cost across regions. - Lead incident response and on-call, run blameless postmortems, and continuously harden the platform. - Partner with product and protocol teams to design and operate production-ready services. Qualifications - Strong experience operating production infrastructure at scale (cloud and/or bare metal), with deep Linux fundamentals. - Experience with infrastructure-as-code such as Terraform or Pulumi, alongside configuration management. - Experience running containers and orchestration platforms (Docker, Kubernetes) in production. - Strong programming skills, ideally in Go and/or TypeScript, for building automation and internal tooling. - Experience with observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry or equivalents). - Experience operating and monitoring distributed systems, including capacity planning and performance tuning. - Comfortable operating in high-stakes production environments and responding to incidents. - Genuine interest in crypto and on-chain systems. Requirements - Experience operating blockchain node infrastructure (validators, RPC, archive nodes) for an L1/L2. - Experience with high-performance networking, low-latency systems or load balancing at scale. - Multi-region and geo-distributed deployments with failover strategies. - Security and key management (HSMs, secrets management, hardening). - EVM tooling and the wider Web3 infrastructure ecosystem. What Success Looks Like - Engineers can deploy safely and frequently with confidence. - Platform reliability is measurable, with well-defined SLOs and continuously improving service health. - Infrastructure is automated, repeatable and increasingly self-service. - Incidents become less frequent, easier to diagnose and faster to resolve. - Product teams spend more time shipping features and less time managing infrastructure. How We Work - Agent maximalists: We are strong believers in agentic tooling being a massive accelerant to velocity beyond vibe coding prototypes. - Ownership and autonomy: A lean team that optimises for individual impact and velocity. Engineers own features end-to-end, from idea to production. - Outcome-oriented: We take on hard technical problems, but the tech is always a means to an end. What matters is what ships and the impact it has. - Best tool for the job: We solve interesting problems in the simplest way possible.
