Full time
Risk Labs is the foundation and core team behind UMA, and Across. The Risk Labs team operates as one cohesive (amazing!) culture, but focuses on two core protocols, UMA and Across. UMA and Across are decentralized protocols governed by community members across the globe in DAOs, and are supported by Risk Labs Foundation. UMA's optimistic oracle (OO) can record any verifiable truth or data onto a blockchain. Across is leading the future of interoperability with its frontier intents based architecture.
We are a remote-first, globally distributed team focused on building infrastructure that pushes crypto forward.
We are hiring a Senior DevOps engineer to drive the evolution of Risk Labs operations and development processes. You’ll have the opportunity to take advantage of an AI-forward culture to automate what was previously not automatable and rethink operations in light of recent shifts in development. Your work will also protect the UMA and Across protocols from the highly adversarial blockchain environment. You’ll work closely with a team of platform engineers who are all focused on building internal tooling and running vital protocol operations.
Our Cloud Stack: work with the engineering team to design the infrastructure to power our products and protocols. This will involve both system architecture and design as well as building out terraform and CD.
Security and Permissioning: work with the leadership team to build out and scale our security systems and processes to protect our company, products, and protocols from attackers. Rather than manually managing permissions, you will own the automation of our security stack.
Continuous Integration and Deployment: design CI/CD processes that are resilient, scalable, and useful. You will be responsible for the scaffolding that the engineering team builds within.
Alerting and Monitoring: create monitoring systems that track important metrics and logs in a highly legible and accessible way, while making it easy for engineers to be alerted on anomalous behaviors.
Internal Tooling: invent internal tooling to solve problems proactively, as you notice common needs and pain points.
Engineering team is able to ship new projects quickly.
Internal systems are highly observable and reliable by default.
Team has clarity on who is allowed to do what and why. Permissioning is rarely a blocker to progress.
Internal tools are introduced early and often to ease friction points and enhance team productivity.
Risk Labs retains its impeccable security record.
