Consensys is hiring a

Web3 Systems Administrator

Our mission is to unlock the collaborative power of communities by making Web3 universally easy to use, access, and build on

Working with ConsenSys puts you at the forefront of an evolving paradigm, transforming our society for the better. We fundamentally believe blockchain is the next generation of technology that can lay the foundation for a more just and equitable society. 

Blockchain tech is just over 10 years old. Ethereum itself is still a toddler and we’re far from reaching our full potential. You’ll get to work on the tools, infrastructure, and apps that scale these platforms to billions of users. 

You’ll be constantly exposed to new concepts, ideas, and frameworks from your peers, and as you work on different projects — challenging you to stay at the top of your game. You’ll join a network of entrepreneurs and technologists that reaches the edge of our ecosystem. ConsenSys alumni have moved on to become tech entrepreneurs, CEOs, and team leads at tech companies.

Supporting all IT and InfoSec operations, our team enables the creation of trusted software products and services, helping developers create next-generation networks and enable enterprises to launch powerful and secure financial systems. By building and supporting a unified, strategically implemented network of software, hardware, and service platforms, we provide ConsenSys teams with the most effective, secure tools they need to build the foundation for a decentralized future.
