[Hiring] DevOps Engineer @Relay (Uneven Labs, Inc.)

Role Description

Every transaction our users make passes through infrastructure that has to be fast, reliable, and secure across a sprawling multi-chain environment. Our infrastructure team currently handles everything from Kubernetes cluster management and GitOps deployment pipelines to RPC proxy infrastructure, database operations, and the data pipelines that power analytics and observability.

In this role, you'll own real systems from day one: deploying services, managing cloud infrastructure, and responding to incidents on 24/7 financial infrastructure. Over time, you'll share ownership of infrastructure domains and help define how the team scales.

What you'll do

• Keep the platform running
• Manage Kubernetes clusters and deployment pipelines across development, staging, production, and testnet environments
• Diagnose infrastructure incidents, coordinate with engineering teams, and drive to resolution
• Monitor alerts, review dashboards, and continuously improve our ability to detect and resolve issues before they become customer-facing
• Maintain, extend and optimize our RPC proxy infrastructure
• Identify and implement optimizations that reduce latency and cost at scale
• Support engineering teams
• Review and merge infrastructure configuration changes from backend and data engineering teams
• Help teams deploy new services and onboard to existing infrastructure patterns
• Be a go-to resource for unblocking infrastructure-related questions across the org
• Build and improve the infrastructure foundation
• Maintain CI/CD pipelines and automated deployment tooling that engineering teams rely on daily
• Manage data infrastructure used by the analytics and indexing stack
• Contribute to security and reliability improvements: secrets management, access controls, deploy pipeline hardening

Qualifications

• 4+ years in an infrastructure, DevOps, or platform engineering role
• Production Kubernetes experience (EKS, GKE, or equivalent) including cluster management, networking, and workload operations
• GitOps deployment workflows (ArgoCD, Flux, or similar)
• Cloud infrastructure ownership (AWS strongly preferred): VPCs, EKS, EC2, KMS, IAM, and related services
• CI/CD pipeline management (GitHub Actions or equivalent)
• PostgreSQL in production: schema migrations, query optimization, incident response
• Infrastructure-as-code and Terraform

Nice to have

• Blockchain or crypto infrastructure experience: RPC node management, multi-chain environments, or chain indexing systems
• ClickHouse or other columnar/OLAP database experience
• Event streaming infrastructure (Kafka, Debezium, or equivalent)
• Security-focused infrastructure experience: secrets management, deploy pipeline security, access controls

Benefits

• Competitive base salary
• Equity package
• Comprehensive health benefits
• Unlimited PTO policy with encouraged minimum
• Remote-first culture with emphasis on collaboration, communication, and flexibility
