IO Global, creator of Cardano, is searching for a Service Reliability Engineer to join its Sidechains team.

Role overview

IO Global is one of the world’s pre-eminent blockchain research and engineering companies which builds high-assurance blockchain infrastructure solutions for public and private sector clients. We are currently searching for a talented Service Reliability Engineer to complete our team of Service Reliability Engineers.

As an SRE at IOG you will work chiefly with one of our diverse projects – Sidechains – to plan, teach and implement fully reproducible GitOps-based operations across various pre-production and production environments on the blockchain. As part of our well-structured SRE team, you will work closely with internal domain experts to ensure high-quality, stable environments for our internal and external customers.

The principal goals of the EVM sidechain project are twofold: 1. To allow Solidity DApps and EVM development to run on Cardano. 2. To build a trustless / permissionless bridge between Cardano and its side chains to guarantee the security of user assets in comparison to more centralized / permissioned solutions.

Your mission

Bear SRE expert knowledge into the project
Execute on premeditated SRE procedures on behalf of the project
