About Infura

• Infura is the leading infrastructure platform providing scalable and easy-to-use APIs and cloud solutions for blockchain and decentralized application developers.
• Infura currently offers APIs for Ethereum, IPFS, and other leading decentralized networks, allowing developers to immediately begin building instead of spending time on architecting and maintaining their own infrastructure.
• Infura provides developers instant access to decentralized and blockchain networks without the need to sync or understand complicated peer to peer infrastructure.
• Similar to how one might access a cloud service to alleviate the friction of owning proprietary compute and storage, Infura lowers the barrier to entry for engineers to begin building.
• We believe in a more equitable and decentralized future, and we know developers will be at the forefront of that progress.
• We want to empower developers to spend their time building, creating, and evolving by providing them with the best and easiest solution to their infrastructure needs.

Responsibilities
What you’ll do:

• Be part of a world-class infrastructure and tools team responsible for core Infura engineering projects.
• The SRE team is an integral part of supporting a globally available, high performance service. Modern tools and practices help our developers work safely and efficiently.
• As part of the SRE team, you will be leading the way to champion and document best practices building tooling for observability, test automation, CI/CD, infrastructure as code, single pane of glass observability, and execution tracing.
• The SRE team is the subject matter expert to evangelize and ensure best practices are employed from design to production across engineering teams.
• When incidents occur, SREs help manage issue resolution, research root causes, and promote changes to ensure reliability in the customer experience.
• We work with infrastructure as code tools (e.g. Pulumi, Terraform), containers and container orchestration (e.g. Docker, Podman, Kubernetes, ECS); event source / message based architectures (e.g. Kinesis, EventBridge); frontend applications (e.g. React, nodejs, etc); both RDBMS and NoSQL Datastores (e.g. Postgres, Mongo, Redis, DynamoDb); monitoring tools (e.g. Prometheus, Grafana, CloudWatch, Datadog); Linux based operating systems; and of course blockchain and DLT.

Requirements
Would be great if you brought this to the role:

• The ideal candidate would have 5+ years in a DevOps, System Operations, or SRE role.
• Extensive experience troubleshooting, debugging, monitoring, and working with microservices, cloud native, or distributed systems.
• High level of excellence with regards to best practices in security, compliance, high availability, and system resilience.
• Infura maintains cloud based systems, so deep experience with one or more cloud providers (bonus for AWS) is preferable.
