Infrastructure Engineer

We are looking for an Infrastructure Engineer with 3 to 5 years of experience and strong hands-on knowledge of GCP, Kubernetes, and Terraform to help build and own the cloud-native platform behind a fast-growing onchain asset management business. This is the team's second infrastructure hire - you'll work directly with the infra/platform lead, own real surface area from week one, and have a genuine say in the tools, patterns, and direction of the platform.

You will be responsible for keeping services shipping safely and reliably: unblocking application teams, hardening CI/CD, and driving infrastructure projects end-to-end so the platform can scale with the business. This role requires hands-on ownership of a cloud-native stack rather than a narrow slice of someone else's - building is a highly collaborative effort, so we're looking for someone proactive, detail-oriented, and comfortable operating in a small, fast-moving infra team.

Responsibilities

• Support application teams by resolving infra requests (permissions, roles, service setup, project peering) so product engineers stay focused on shipping.
• Own CI/CD and deployments: maintain and extend GitHub Actions workflows, working toward fully automated, locked-down deploys via service accounts.
• Build and maintain infrastructure as code, authoring and updating Terraform modules across GCP environments.
• Operate Kubernetes: manage service deployments via Helm and keep async workloads healthy on Dagster.
• Support observability efforts by consolidating per-team alerting into a single view, with dashboards and incident alerting routed to the right on-call teams.
• Contribute to a more region- and cloud-agnostic infrastructure posture.
• Apply security and access fundamentals: IAM, secrets management, least privilege, and auditability; contribute to SOC 2 readiness.
• Help automate routine infra tasks with AI agent skills, and use AI to support reasoning through larger infrastructure problems.

• 3-5 years of experience with strong software engineering fundamentals in at least one production language (Python, Go, TypeScript, or Rust); Python especially valued.
• Hands-on experience with cloud infrastructure, ideally GCP (AWS/Azure experience is transferable).
• Experience operating Kubernetes in production environments.
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code, especially Terraform.
• Familiarity with CI/CD systems, especially GitHub Actions or Octopus Deploy.
• Ability to debug production issues using logs, metrics, traces, shell tools, and source code.
• Basic understanding of security and access-control fundamentals: IAM, secrets management, least privilege, and auditability.
• Clear written communication around incidents, design decisions, and operational procedures.

• Experience supporting SOC 2 controls (evidence collection, access reviews, change management, audit readiness).
• Observability experience with Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Honeycomb, or similar.
• Experience improving developer experience through internal tooling, templates, scripts, or platform APIs.
• Incident response experience, including postmortems and follow-up remediation.
• Experience with Dagster, Helm 3+, high-scale CD tooling (Bazel, Octopus), or AI/agent-assisted ops.
• Basic web3/DeFi literacy (transactions, wallets) and genuine curiosity about onchain systems.
