To achieve our mission, we're seeking a very specific candidate. We want someone who is passionate about our mission and who believes in the power of crypto and blockchain technology to update the financial system. We want someone who is eager to leave their mark on the world, who relishes the pressure and privilege of working with high caliber colleagues, and who actively seeks feedback to keep leveling up. We want someone who will run towards, not away from, solving the company's hardest problems.

The "CI" pod builds and operates state-of-the-art version control and continuous integration infrastructure for our engineers. We manage one of the largest k8s clusters at Coinbase and have built a custom controller to manage our workload efficiently. We are making a bold strategic move to migrate our source code into the cloud.

Job Duties:

• Build, improve, and operate backend developer productivity infrastructure services and systems.
• Design scalable, fault-tolerant solutions to novel problems with modern cloud technology and industry best practices.
• Work with engineers and leadership to turn our product and technical vision into a tangible roadmap every quarter.
• Provide stellar customer support to our internal engineers.
