What do we do?
Chainflip is a blockchain project that uses multi-party-computation and threshold signature schemes to allow our decentralised validator network to secure assets across multiple arbitrarily differentiated blockchain networks, with the ultimate goal of allowing users to swap between various cryptocurrencies across multiple blockchains in a trustless and programmatic way.
This is a very tightly coupled engineering challenge, one that we’ve been working on for over a year. It is a multidisciplinary exercise in distributed systems, decentralised finance, blockchain consensus mechanisms, cyber security, applied cryptography, and front end tooling. Our engineering team of 15 is on the lookout for additional people to tackle this challenge with us. We’re mostly based in Berlin, Germany.
Whats the Job?
We are seeking a Senior DevOps Engineer to join our team to help us analyse our security at different levels of the stack and protocol.
Architect our server-side deployment automation systems and package distribution for node operators Research and develop our approach to security solutions within the server side-software component of the protocol
Develop, deploy, and maintain nodes on our validator network, web application, and supporting infrastructure such as monitoring, CI, and analytics tools.
Analyse and develop strategies to improve the server-side security of our validator node software and the validator network in general
Develop mitigating strategies and monitoring tools to combat against network attacks
Design and develop secure mechanisms for key management and signing
Much of our backend technology stack relies heavily on our own Rust based software which includes p2p networking, consensus mechanisms, blockchain technology, and cryptography. We also use Substrate, Solidity, and a variety of other tools and frameworks to achieve the product result.
For this role, you will have a professional history in Devops, a competent operator of Linux server systems, and will be at least familiar with Rust and/or C++. You will have working in software professionally for at least 2 years.
You will work with the existing engineering team of 11 alongside our very experienced CTO Tom Nash. You will be supported throughout your tenure at Chainflip to learn, try new things, and above all become a subject matter expert in some of the most interesting technologies in software today.
