Ethereum Staking Infrastructure Engineer (m/f/d)

What you would do

Since we are a start-up and the fact that we put our employees first, you can always grow and peek beyond your role so that continuous personal development is guaranteed. That being said, your primary responsibility is to maintain and operate our distributed Ethereum staking infrastructure. This role involves ensuring the stability, security and efficiency of the infrastructure by performing various tasks related to node management self-responsibly.

Your key responsibilities will include:

1. Understand the Ethereum roadmap, relevant EIPs changes, and adapt our setup.
2. Develop Infrastructure as Code automation using Ansible, Terraform, and others, ensuring solid node operation, configuration, and management.
3. Implement and maintain security, business continuity and disaster recovery measures.
4. Collaborate with node operators, infrastructure operators, and other stakeholders.
5. Be involved in the communication with our clients and partners.
6. Be part of our on-call duty rotation.
7. Learn, grow, and peak beyond your current role.

What we are looking for

You are an experienced blockchain node operator with deep knowledge of the Ethereum protocol, and a passion for blockchain and decentralization. You are an outstanding analytical thinker, and use your problem solving skills to troubleshoot technical issues. You have strong attention to detail and show a proactive approach to maintaining node health and future-proofing our validator setup.

Requirements

1. Proficiency and demonstrated experience with Infrastructure as Code and Ethereum staking technologies.
2. A degree in computer science or a related field is a plus.
3. Fluency in English (German is a plus).
4. Willingness to travel once in a while to meet the team in person.

What we offer

• A fun, friendly, and close-knit crew.
• Competitive salary.
• Flexible working arrangements.
• Support for furthering your self-development, skills, and career.
• An opportunity to work and learn alongside leading professionals, teams, and projects in a cutting-edge industry.
• Option to work remotely.
