n

Total Compensation: $600k+ TC

n

A global leading proprietary trading firm is hiring a Crypto Production Engineer to join their Production Engineering team.

n

This is a hands-on role owning crypto infrastructure end to end - validators, RPC nodes, light clients - at one of the most technically sophisticated trading firms in the world. If you've managed proof-of-stake infrastructure and want to work somewhere where uptime and technical excellence genuinely matter - this is worth a look.

n

What you'll be doing

n

n
Building and operating large-scale infrastructure across multiple blockchains
n
Owning on-chain infrastructure including validators, light clients, and RPC nodes
n
Improving monitoring, alerting, and observability across crypto systems
n
Experimenting with emerging blockchain technologies and contributing to crypto strategy
n
Automating, optimising, and scaling infrastructure across hybrid cloud and bare-metal environments

What they're looking for

n




Hands-on experience managing proof-of-stake blockchain infrastructure - Solana or Ethereum preferred

Strong Linux fundamentals with Kubernetes, networking, and observability experience
n
Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code and configuration management tools
n
Proven ability to design, build, and maintain complex high-availability systems

Why this opportunity

n

Crypto Production Engineer roles at firms of this calibre don't come up often. This isn't a bank with a crypto side project or a startup finding its feet - this is one of the most technically advanced trading firms in the world, with the resources, infrastructure, and engineering talent to match.

n

You'd be working on problems that genuinely don't exist anywhere else - consensus algorithms, distributed systems, cryptography, secure key management - all in a production setting where the stakes are real. The team is global, flat, and rapid-moving, and there's real ownership from day one rather than being a cog in a large machine.
