Senior DevOps Engineer, Americas

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 are looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer with excellent knowledge of linux systems and significant experience building new automation for infrastructure and testing. You will be joining a small, talented team of systems experts to extend the testing and automation for a high-performance next-generation blockchain.

What You Will Do

• You'll build automation for testing components of the Monad blockchain

• You'll build tools for observability and alerting

• You'll build and maintain testnets

• You'll define best practices for node operators

• You'll participate in on-call rotation for production support

Who You Are

• You have significant experience in DevOps at a professional validator company or L1 blockchain.

• You have significant experience in Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and container technologies (docker, kubernetes, terraform, ansible, puppet)

• You are proficient in at least one back-end development language such as Python, Go, or C++

• You are proficient with command-line git

• You have experience writing scripts for deploying and maintaining infrastructure (Linux installations, clusters, and networks)

• You have experience evaluating and improving observability and security practices

• You have experience with network setup and maintenance

Why Work with Us

• Challenging problems. You’ll work on extremely challenging problems with massive impact.

• Huge opportunity. The Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) standard is ubiquitous, but existing EVM-compatible chains are slow and bandwidth-constrained. Monad’s core innovations offer developers the best of both worlds (portability and performance) and are a game-changer for mass user adoption in crypto.

• The right team. You’ll be part of an exceptional and highly-motivated team

• 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. As an early member of our team, you’ll help continue to shape our culture.

Benefits for full-time employees may include medical, dental, and vision insurance (100% coverage for employees); generous paid time off; paid parental leave; and 10 company-observed holidays.
