You will report to the Automation Team Lead and work with a group of DevOps engineers focused on automating all things related to running blockchain software. It’s critical that you are comfortable working in an unstructured environment, dealing with uncertainty, minimal direction, and working across a wide range of projects.

• Manage and monitor cloud and physical servers across multiple global hosting services and data centers
• Automation of blockchain software build, install, and management processes
• Linux server administration, hardening, intrusion detection, and vulnerability scanning
• Debugging complex distributed blockchains to help run them smoothly

Qualifications

• Experience supporting Linux servers in environments with over 500 servers, preferably in highly available 24/7 environments. Strong knowledge of deployment, configuration, logging, monitoring, and troubleshooting of Linux servers and applications.
• Experience with common system administration scripting languages such as bash and Python.
• Direct experience managing over 500 servers with Ansible (or similar tools). Hands-on experience creating roles from scratch with complex logic flows, managing complex inventory and variable structures.
• Experience automating cloud provisioning processes using Packer and Terraform.
• Deep understanding of networking and security best practices
• Experience with Hashicorp Vault or other secure storage tools.
• Experience working in environments with high security requirements.

Nice to have, but not required

• Knowledge of, or experience with, Proof-of-Work and Proof-of-Stake decentralized consensus mechanisms used in blockchains
• Kubernetes
• Setting up CICD pipelines
