Kubernetes Jobs in Web3

The Monad Foundation is a team of dedicated ecosystem and community builders who are on a mission to massively grow the impact of decentralized tech. We believe that the Monad blockchain--the performant and parallel EVM Layer 1--will help decentralized apps eat the world.

The Role

We're looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer with deep Linux expertise and a strong track record of building infrastructure and testing automation from scratch. You'll join a small, talented team of systems experts to extend the testing, tooling, and operational backbone of a high-performance, next-generation Layer 1 blockchain.

What You Will Do

• Build and maintain testnets and test automation for components of the Monad blockchain

• Prototype new deployment patterns across validator and full-node topologies

• Design and run performance benchmarks and load tests to surface bottlenecks before they reach production

• Drive observability, alerting, and security across the stack

• Define best practices for node operators & support them

• Develop tooling for internal & external use

• Participate in on-call rotation for production support

Who You Are

• 2+ years of DevOps experience at a professional RPC provider / professional validator company / L1 blockchain

• 3+ years of experience with Infrastructure as Code and Configuration Management (Terraform, Ansible)

• 2+ years of experience with container technologies (Docker, Kubernetes)

• Proficient in bare metal server management and scripting

• Proficient in at least one back-end language such as Python or Go

• Hands-on experience running highly available containerized systems on Kubernetes, including packaging (Helm) and GitOps->

• Strong experience with a major cloud provider (AWS preferred)

• Comfort with network setup, maintenance, and troubleshooting at the systems level

• Experience operating open-source observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, or similar)

• Proficient with command-line git

• Able to juggle competing priorities and move quickly during incidents

• Fluent written and spoken English

Why Work with Us

• Challenging problems. You’ll tackle deeply complex and technically demanding problems, with autonomy and impact.

• Endless Opportunity for Impact. The Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) standard is ubiquitous, but existing EVM-compatible chains are slow and bandwidth-constrained. Monad’s core innovations offer developers and founders the best of both worlds (portability and performance) and are a game-changer to power global on-chain finance.

• The right team. You’ll be part of a world class team, who are exceptional and highly-motivated.

• Culture. We’re a lean team working together to achieve very ambitious goals. We are united in our culture of collaboration, low ego, and high-quality output.

• Strong Ecosystem. The broader Monad ecosystem has attracted support from leading investors, builders and long-term contributors.
