Senior DevOps Engineer, APAC

APAC

Category Labs (formerly known as Monad Labs) is a team of systems engineers and researchers on a mission to design and build at the frontier of decentralized technology. We strive to design and build step-function improvements over existing blockchain solutions. After recently raising $225M in series A funding, led by Paradigm, we are growing our team.

The Role

We are looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer with significant experience running blockchain nodes at a validator or L1 company. Our ideal candidate has excellent knowledge of Linux systems and significant experience building new automation for infrastructure and testing. You'll 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 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, Grafana and Prometheus experience are a plus
  • 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 very slow. 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 team.
  • Culture. We’re a lean team working together to achieve very ambitious goals. We are united in our culture of collaboration, low egos, and high-quality outputs. As an early member of our team, you’ll help continue to shape our culture.
  • Compensation. You’ll receive a competitive salary and equity package.
  • Resources and growth. We’re well-capitalized, with backing from leading venture funds like Paradigm, Electric Capital, Greenoaks, Dragonfly, and Coinbase Ventures. We keep a lean team, and this is a rare opportunity to join. You’ll learn a lot and grow as our company scales.

Benefits

Company benefits for US-based full-time employees include medical, dental, and vision insurance (100% coverage for employees); unlimited and encouraged paid time off; monthly mental health and fitness stipend; paid parental leave; and 10 company-observed holidays.
