Node Reliability Engineer

role overview

We are hiring Node Reliability Engineers now as we approach our testnet and mainnet launches later this year. We have a strong team focused on internal infrastructure and are building out the teams that will build and support the infrastructure for running the production network. Working with node operators to build tooling and monitoring infrastructure for the Sui network.

NREs work closely with validators and other node operations to productionize the running of the Sui network with a heavy focus on operability and visibility into the network. You will be working with complex concurrent systems, automation that reduces repeated manual work, and infrastructures that collect and visualize telemetry data.

responsibilities

• Work closely with engineers to productionize systems, keeping in mind operational best practices with a heavy focus on automation
• Designing, developing, and deploying new systems that enhance throughput, latency, reliability, availability, and security for the blockchain and the blockchain ecosystem services
• End-to-end ownership of infrastructures (for handling telemetry data, for performing testing, etc)

requirements

• 5+ years of experience with hands-on production engineering, including containerization, deployment, orchestration, logging, and monitoring
• Experience working with open-source frameworks for these tasks such as Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform
• Experience with public cloud platforms such as AWS and GCP
• Experience building observability and instrumentation systems
• Experience building infrastructure and tooling to automate key aspects of the release and monitoring processes
• Experience writing/maintaining clear and detailed runbooks
• Excitement about applying production engineering best practices in a decentralized setting and tackling the challenges and opportunities that emerge
• Fluency in a systems programming language such as Rust (used extensively at Mysten), Go, or C++
• Fluency in higher-level languages (e.g., Python, Ruby, Shell Scripting)

Nice to Haves:

• Experience with blockchain and crypto
• Prior experience in a customer facing or consulting role
