Senior Blockchain Infrastructure Engineer (Layer-2)Â
Description
Gelato is an all-in-one Ethereum Rollup as a Service Platform built without limits. Designed to be super-fast, incredibly secure, and infinitely scalable, Gelato rollups allow anyone to build and deploy their fully serviced Layer 2 chains on Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, Celestia and more at a pace natively integrated with Web3's favorite tools and services like Etherscan, The Graph, Pyth, Layer Zero and many more launching a production-ready web3 development environment from the Genesis block.
What we offer:
- Join one of the most technically robust teams in the crypto space, operating in a fully remote environment with our headquarters located in the crypto hub of Zug, Switzerland.
- Play a pivotal role in shaping the future of blockchain, by contributing to the development of Gelato's Rollup-As-A-Service Platform, already trusted by leading projects like Lisk and Astar Network.
- Dive deep into cutting-edge Web3 technologies with exposure to Gelato's premier Middleware Services stack, including Gelato Web3 Functions and Gelato Relay, foundational to top-tier applications such as MakerDAO, Connext, Abracadabra, and Pancakeswap.
- Earn and have a say with the GEL Token package, granting you a stake in the network's future and a voice in the strategic direction of the project.
- Be backed by the best, with support from world-class investors including Dragonfly, IOSG, Galaxy Digital, ParaFi, Gnosis, and renowned figures like Stani Kulechov among others, securing your position at the forefront of the Web3 revolution.
Responsibilities:
- Master diverse Ethereum Rollup technologies including Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, zkSync, and more, preparing for deployment, operation, debugging, and enhancement activities.
- Architect a high-impact decentralized network, focusing on scalability to manage a sequencer and RPC node infrastructure that processes millions of transactions and handles billions of RPC requests daily.
- Deepen your expertise in Zero Knowledge proofs, embracing the challenge of working with ZK-EVM stacks and pushing the boundaries of privacy and scalability in blockchain.
- Embrace full ownership of your code with a proactive approach to DevOps, ensuring robust deployment and real-time monitoring in collaboration with our Infrastructure team.
- Innovate within Rollup ecosystems, designing and implementing groundbreaking features like Decentralized Sequencing, Eigenlayer restaking, peer-to-peer messaging, threshold signatures, and trust-minimized off-chain computation.
- Enhance network security and resilience, creatively identifying potential attack vectors and failure points, establishing reproducible testing environments, and crafting strategic fixes.
- Develop and refine recovery protocols for our core node software, ensuring system robustness and rapid response to unforeseen events.
- Build and maintain distributed systems designed for exceptional reliability across diverse blockchain environments, setting new standards for uptime and performance.

What is EVM?
EVM stands for Ethereum Virtual Machine, and it is the runtime environment for smart contracts in the Ethereum network
It is a virtual machine that executes code written in the Solidity programming language, which is the language used for writing smart contracts on the Ethereum platform
The EVM is a sandboxed environment, which means that code executed within the EVM is isolated from the rest of the network and cannot interact with it directly
This is important for security reasons, as it prevents malicious code from affecting the rest of the network
When a smart contract is deployed to the Ethereum network, it is compiled into bytecode that can be executed by the EVM
Each node on the network maintains a copy of the EVM, which allows them to execute smart contract code and validate transactions
When a transaction is submitted to the network, the EVM processes it by executing the corresponding smart contract code
The EVM processes the transaction by reading the bytecode, interpreting it, and executing it step by step
The EVM then returns the result of the transaction to the sender, which can include changes to the state of the contract or the network as a whole
The EVM is designed to be Turing-complete, which means that it is capable of performing any computation that can be performed by a computer
This allows for complex smart contracts to be executed on the Ethereum network, including those with conditional logic, loops, and other advanced programming constructs
The EVM is a key component of the Ethereum network, as it allows for the execution of smart contracts in a secure and isolated environment
It is a crucial part of the blockchain infrastructure that enables decentralized applications to be built and run on the Ethereum platform.
